Deep Stretch Yin

Deep Stretch Yin is a weekly, floor-based Yin Yoga class designed to help you slow down, release tension and create more space in the body and mind.

In this gentle practice, postures are held for longer periods of time, usually around 3–5 minutes, giving the body time to soften gradually. We’ll work with deep stretches that support the connective tissues, joints and fascia, helping to ease tightness, improve flexibility and encourage a calmer nervous system.

A Thursday evening practice offers a pause point towards the end of the week: time to ease out the build-up of work, screens, driving and day-to-day busyness before Friday begins.

Each class has its own theme and focus, so the practice feels steady but varied across the block. You can expect a quiet, spacious class with plenty of options, so you can work with your own body and find useful sensation rather than the strongest sensation.

In the final class of the block, you’ll get to vote on whether we focus on the lower body, upper body or side body, giving you a say in how we close the series.

The practice will close with a spacious savasana, giving you time to rest, absorb the benefits of the practice and shift into a slower, softer state before you head home.

Deep Stretch Yin is a lovely complement to more dynamic yoga, sport, gym work, running, walking, or simply the busyness of everyday life. It’s also a great option if you spend a lot of time sitting, driving, working at a desk or carrying tension in your body.

No previous yoga experience is needed. This class is suitable for most levels, including beginners, and modifications will be offered throughout.

Come as you are, stretch deeply, breathe fully and leave feeling calmer, softer and more at ease.
