Yin Yoga: Sinking Into Stillness
Join Anastasia for this hour-long class that spends five delicious minutes with every pose. Breathe deeply, relax your body and take the time to sink into the opening within each asana. It will calm you down immensely and leave you feeling grounded and centered in your body. If you haven't done yin before, you will be holding each pose in this class for five minutes.

Nice basic yin class. I enjoyed the quotes - a nice touch. I found the transitions and counterposes too quick to enjoy the lovely benefits of these long-held asanas and had to pause the video quite often. A nice relaxing class on this Sunday evening. Thank you!
Dear Anastasia, thank you for the beautiful Yin class. Your voice was delightful to listen to and I loved the different prop options you referred to.
I'll be adding this to my list of weekly classes.
Namaste xx
Anastasia,
This class has all my favorite yin postures. I loved it! I particularly loved the poem you shared By Swami Kripalu:
My beloved child, break your heart no longer.
Each time you judge yourself, you break your own heart.
You stop feeding on the love, which is the wellspring of your vitality.
The time has come. Your time. To live. To celebrate,
and to see the goodness that you are…
Do not fight the dark. Just turn on the light.
Let go, and breathe into the goodness that you are.
Beautiful!
I love Yin Yoga and I gained so much from the breathing today in this class. Because the poses are held for a longer time, one can really get into the breath work and feel that wondrous place where it's just you and your breath. Beautiful!
