Over the weekend I had the pleasure of taking a Yin workshop with Paul and Suzee Grilley. What a great experience. I have been practicing and teaching Yoga for 8 years. Yes I started teaching Yoga almost exactly when I started taking it. Each year since then I have been attending many workshops and conferences to continue learning.
Learning the background of Yin (more relaxed yoga) was beneficial to my Yang practice. In other words, practicing Flow Yoga challenging the muscles continuously needs a balance. That is where Yin comes in. Yin focuses on stretching the joints and ligaments while relaxing the muscles.
For those of you who are type A and always "Flowing", balance your practice with Yin. Your muscles will thank you, and yes, you will see a increase in flexibility...
Namaste
