Yang to Yin
931 Followers
This is a more challenging class than Satiya's typical offering. It's grounded in a gentle, slow flow but features a few beginner to intermediate poses. She begins the moderately paced Yang to Yin practice with standing poses to get your body warmed up, then helps you work your way down to the floor where the postures become longer, the breath becomes deeper and you slowly begin to settle into stillness.

I really enjoyed this. I love the pose where we take our outstretched legs to one side and then the other. This slow movement, for me, meant using my core to bring the legs back to centre. Your instruction is very clear and calming. I continue to struggle with one leg poses but I just used my wall for balance as I didn't want to interrupt the calm in this practice gave me.
Love the pace, Satiya, and your voice. Great practice after raking leaves for hours. I'm nicely stretched and rebalanced. The firelog pose was a bit difficult, so I adapted with crossed ankles. Love the straight legs together going up then to side whilst lying on the mat; good stretch for something in the side, was it quadratus lumborum? Cheers.
This class is truly inspired. I left this class feeling calmer in mind and body. A perfect example of how yoga is union between body and mind. Thank you, Satiya!
Great practice, Satiya! Exactly what I needed on a day when menstruating and feeling stiff, needing a balance between movement and stillness. Thank you. Namaste.
