Ro Mamone
Core Yin Yoga
Monday, 11:30 - 1:00 pm
A central focus of this class is strengthening and grounding from the core to improve range of motion of the spine and overall flexibility. This stability from the core along with the movement of energy and breath in the inner body, brings a radiance and ease of movement to the outer body. The second part of the class will be in the Yin style of long held passive poses optimizing the flow of the body's natural life force energy (chi), bringing harmony to physical, energetic and emotional imbalances. Yin Yoga cultivates meditative awareness and calmness of mind. This class is a complementary class to the Wed. Yin Yoga class at the same time.
Yin Yoga
Wednesday, 11:30 - 1:00 pm
Yin Yoga is rooted in blending the teachings from Chinese medicine with the traditions of Yoga. A sequence of passive poses are held in stillness for time which targets restoring flexibility and prana flow to the meridian and organ systems, and bringing harmony to physical, energetic and emotional imbalances. The Yin style of yoga also integrates breath
awareness patterns and mindfulness practices while holding the poses to
enhance the effects of the pose and cultivate meditative awareness and
calmness of mind. The class will also include active yoga poses that
complement the Yin style, strengthening at the core and moving to get Yang
energy flowing to balance both sides of our nature. The class will end
with a sitting meditation which arises with more ease after the
contemplative style of Yin Yoga. This is a level II class.
