Yin Yoga at Synergy
Fridays at 8:30 AM
Led by Chris Garrett, the practice of Yin yoga is a fountain of youth as it can slow the aging process by activating deep connective tissues with the long holdings - it provides an opportunity to slow down and look inside. The three principles of Yin yoga are: find your edge, find stillness in the pose, and allow time in the pose (usually 3 to 5 minutes).
This form of yoga stimulates self-healing by calming the sympathetic nervous system and stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system. Encouraging the system of rest and restore to become dominant. Yin yoga also increases flexibility and adaptability in all areas of life and can also increase athletic performance and reduce injuries.
Yin yoga can set you up beautifully for the weekend ahead!
Gentle Yoga at Synergy
Faye Mahan teaches Gentle Yoga on Tuesday at noon and RYT Mary Ann Sinde
teaches Gentle Yoga on Thursday at
noon - these great teachers offer these profoundly
calming and nurturing practices that restore the nervous
system and promote the effects of conscious relaxation that release deeply held
tensions from the body and bring peace to the mind. Each pose is entered with an
emphasis on breathing and
supported as needed by the use of props such as bolsters,
blocks, blankets, straps, and eye pillows to provide maximum comfort and
promote a gentle opening in the mind body spirit.
Gentle yoga are great compliments and bring balance to vigorous
practices such as vinyasa flow, hot yoga, power yoga, running, biking, hiking,
& swimming.
Regular and consistent practice increases range of motion, improves joint
mobility, and reduces pain and the effects of stress. This class is appropriate
for students of all levels, and is especially beneficial for students with
injuries, arthritis, or other chronic conditions and limitations. No prior yoga experience is required.
