Balance is the Goal, Yin is the energy, Yoga and Massage the Vehicle. Welcome to Yin Mind and Body. A place to focus the mind and escape the stress of everyday life. To breath; to be quiet; to be still; to take an internal focus where we can connect with our mind and body. Over many years I have gravitated towards the "Yin" styles of Yoga because of it's calm and quiet nature. It's the energy I choose (continually) to live in! "A little bit of Yin goes along way" to balance our hectic lifestyles, our demanding physical workouts, and the mental stress of living in 2018 and beyond. As one of my participants stated "it's the type of Yoga class I never knew I needed until I tried it. Now it's my favourite class of the week"
I have spent 30 + years in the fitness industry and have witnessed and welcomed the progression Yoga and more recently the Yin styles of Yoga. I truly believe it's what we need and should be part of everyone's routine. I am humbled and ecstatic to have this simple space to practise all that I love in this beautiful "Yin" energy. Introducing Qigong Flow to our schedule recently has changed the energy in our space...it's balanced Yin and Yang in beautiful ancient practise of Qigong. Come and try it, it's for everyone!
