In a world that constantly asks us to do more and move faster, yin yoga offers a radical invitation to slow down. This gentle, restorative practice balances the "yang" energy of being active with necessary rest and intentional pause, creating space for your body and mind to unwind and discover your innate sense of calm.

If you haven't tried yin yoga, you should know it's very different from most other vinyasa or workout-based styles. It's a very slow practice where we hold poses for approximately two to seven minutes, mostly seated or lying down with props for support, allowing gravity to help your body release stored tension over time. The beauty of yin lies in these longer holds, where we observe how the body gradually opens and the mind settles the more we simply rest in one spot.

If you're curious about yin, I'd love to welcome you. I teach weekly yin classes at the Bay Club Marin in Corte Madera on Sundays from 4-5:15pm, providing a perfect way to let go of the week's demands and restore balance before the new week begins. For a more personalized experience, I also offer private one-on-one sessions that blend yin yoga with assisted stretching and massage. Not ready to commit? Start at home with my YouTube channel, where you'll find several yin classes with new videos added each week.

If you haven't seen my new studio yet, enjoy this glimpse into the space I've created for massage and private yoga in Corte Madera.

My vision goes beyond a simple treatment room; I aim to provide an oasis, carefully curated to help you step away from the demands of daily life and find a moment of true calm. From the soothing courtyard fountains that greet you when you arrive to the warm glow inside, every detail is intentional. The space is designed to feel safe, welcoming, and deeply restorative. A place where you can let go of what you're carrying and simply be present with yourself. Clients often tell me they feel the shift the moment they walk in. A sense of ease that stays with them long after they leave.

If you've been looking for a place to pause, breathe, and reconnect, I'd be honored to welcome you here at Katherine Edwards Yoga & Massage (located at the Corte Madera Plaza at 21 Tamal Vista Blvd, Suite 111).

Deep tissue massage tends to be divisive: some people love it, while others avoid it entirely. It took me a long time to learn to love deep tissue work. My early experiences were extremely painful and left me aching for days afterward. However, over time, I discovered a better balance of therapeutic work that relieved stiff muscles, while still feeling relaxing and restorative.

If you're new to deep tissue or have had negative experiences in the past, I want to emphasize that deep tissue is not supposed to hurt. It doesn't even have to mean deep pressure if that's not what feels right for you. The purpose of deep tissue massage is to target specific muscles or muscle groups that need attention. This may mean spending all or most of the session on select areas to address your requests or concerns. During a deep tissue session, slow, intentional strokes and sustained pressure help break up adhesions and ease restrictions within the muscles and fascia. Although the pressure is firm, the work is always guided by communication and comfort, helping you relax even as the deeper layers of tension release. Many clients describe feeling lighter, looser, and more grounded after a session, with improved range of motion and a renewed sense of ease.

Deep tissue can be especially beneficial for those with chronic pain, people with desk jobs who experience muscle tension from prolonged sitting, individuals recovering from injury or surgery, and athletes managing the demands they place on their bodies. Whether you're addressing long-standing discomfort or simply seeking relief from daily strain, this work meets you where you are.

If you've been hesitant about deep tissue because of a past experience, I invite you to try it again, this time, in a space where your comfort guides the work. Learn more or schedule a session at keyogamassage.com
