Through conscious deep breathing and longer held poses, this practice encourages yogis to connect with their innermost self, their emotions and sensations.
Yin Yoga works deeply into the body with passive, longer-held poses. Yin targets your deepest connective tissues - facia, ligaments and joints. The poses you will move through in a yin class help to release tension in the body, reduce stress, enhance range of motion, increase overall flexibility and helps to release stagnant energy being held in the body allowing it to move more freely.

Yin yoga is a wonderful practice for both beginners and long-time yogis.

Stillness is a gift you give yourself.

In our busy lives, slowing down can feel like a challenge - but it’s exactly what our body and mind crave.

Candlelight Yin Yoga invites you to:

⭐️ Gently nourish your fascia and joints
⭐️ Calm your nervous system
⭐️ Release tension held deep in the body
⭐️ Rest in stillness surrounded by soft candlelight

If you have been curious but haven’t signed up yet, now’s the perfect time.
Sundays at 6pm, starting Sept 7 - 4 weeks for $50.

Spaces are limited - email wendylyleyoga@gmail.com to save your spot

Why Yin Yoga Feels So Good (Even If You’re Not Moving Much)

In Yin Yoga, we hold passive poses for a few minutes at a time- not to stretch muscles (though stretching still naturally occurs) but to gently stress and hydrate deep connective tissues like fascia, ligaments, and joint capsules.

This slow practice helps:
⭐️ Hydrate and nourish fascia (your body’s internal web)
⭐️ Restore joint mobility and range of motion
⭐️ Calm your nervous system and quiet you mind

Think of it as giving your body and mind a warm, soothing bath. 💤

Join me Sundays at 6pm for Candlelight Yin Yoga and feel the difference for yourself.
