Yang to Yin Yoga guides you from energising movement to deep, restorative stretches. Strengthen, stretch, and restore your body and mind in one balanced practice.
What is Yang to Yin?
Yang to Yin Yoga takes you on a journey from movement to stillness. The class begins with dynamic, energising Yang-style sequences to build strength, flexibility, and focus, then transitions into slow, deep Yin stretches to release tension, calm the mind, and restore the body. Perfect for all levels, this balanced practice helps you improve mobility, reduce stress, and leave feeling grounded, open, and deeply refreshed.
Your Yang to Yin Yoga Session
Move mindfully, build strength, and refine your form with focused, intentional practice.
Before Class
Wear comfy, stretchy clothes and arrive a little early to settle in. Drink some water but skip heavy meals.
During Class
Expect long, gentle holds with lots of support. Focus on softening and breathing deeply. Listen to your body and adjust as needed.
After Class
Rest for a moment and notice how you feel — calm, open, and refreshed. Drink water and ease gently back into your day.
Let your instructor know if you have any injuries or concerns. We’re here to support you.
