Yin Yoga
Led by Tanya, with assists by Emma, yin yoga involves passive poses held for longer than in more dynamic types of yoga and it focuses on the body’s connective tissues such as ligaments, tendons and fascia. It also offers the opportunity to relax and has a range of mental benefits including mindfulness and reducing stress and anxiety.
Yoga Nidra
Led by Emma, and supported by Tanya, yoga nidra or yoga sleep, practiced lying down or in a supported seated position, leads you into a state of deep relaxation and has numerous physical, mental, and emotional benefits associated with it, including improved sleep, physical relaxation, stress reduction, enhanced creativity and learning, and increased self-awareness.
For an afternoon of deep relaxation and rest, all you need to do is turn up.

You're also welcome to bring your own mat with you and a blanket that you can use for comfort or to wrap around you in the yoga nidra part of the session is a great idea too.
