Yin/Yang Yoga for the Shoulders and Upper Back
670 Followers
The yin comes before the yang in this wonderful, heart-opening, shoulder-releasing and back pain-relieving yin/yang yoga class. Sarah-Jane helps you ease into a series of intense yin poses to release the shoulders first, then moves you through a flow that deepens shoulder openers before you lie down to relax in savasana. Note: you need a bolster, pillow or folded blanket for this class.

Thank you Sarah! It was a nice thorough session, and I was able to do the deeper versions of the yang poses, which I didn't expect. I found the yin part a lot more challenging, mainly because of the long holds, though of course, I see that's the point. Feeling all loosey goosey and energized now :)
Thank you, Sarah! I enjoyed a lot doing this class. The pace is very good, starting with yin poses that slowly warm up your body, and then going to more advanced poses. Personally, I didn't feel them as "yang" but classic hatha. At the end of the class, my body was very open, warm and relaxed and I could do some challenging poses such as the camel with ease and confidence.
An excellent class for slow-warmers such as me. Namaste!
I enjoyed this class a lot. Thank you.
Thanks for the feedback everyone. I have moved this class up to intermediate and replaced it with a more appropriate class in the Transform Your Life Beginner 30-Day Challenge.
