This yin yoga class helps you release the deeper tension around the shoulders, arms and upper back. Sarah's gentle, encouraging guidance helps you get through the discomfort of holding a stretch for a few minutes, particularly the poses that are uncomfortable the moment you move into them.

This was a beautiful practice - thank you so much Sarah Jane. I carry my tension in my shoulders. This class was just what I needed to release some of that tightness.

I really needed something specific for my shoulders from a very stressful work day at the computer, with bad posture I'm sure. lol I will be doing this practice several times a week. It really targets all the shoulder muscles and tissue. So grateful for this!

Just what I needed this morning! Lifting, hugging, and carrying a little 24-lb body all day long has left me very tight. This was my first "yin" class and I appreciated the info shared about a yin vs yan work out of yoga. I think i'm due for more yin these days! Looking forward to trying some of her other classes.
