-INTRO- Yin Yoga can have a profound effect when practiced regularly; both physically and mentally. In this workshop, we explore how Yin Yoga supports mobility and balance in the body.
· Physically: with regular Yin Yoga practice you may experience more suppleness, ease, and a greater sense of balance in the body.
· Mentally: you may experience more calmness, clarity, and less reactivity.
-CONTENT OF THE WORKSHOP-
We take a closer look at the way Yin Yoga affects the body, especially connective tissue (fascia), joints, and muscles. You will explore how Yin Yoga works in the body and link it directly to the practice itself. We will look at:
· What connective tissue is and why it matters for our health.
· How Yin Yoga influences connective tissue and joints through longer-held poses in a gentle way.
· The role of connective tissue in hydration, tension and stress response.
· Practice the principles that create the effect of yin yoga: ‘time over intensity’, softness in the stretch and the intelligent use of props.
-FOR WHOM IS THIS WORKSHOP-
This workshop is ideal if you want to deepen your understanding of Yin Yoga and refine the way you practice—whether you are a dedicated student or just started practicing Yin Yoga.
-WHAT YOU WILL LEARN-
· How Yin Yoga works on joints, connective tissue and muscles.
· How to practice Yin in a way that supports optimal effect: gentle intensity, longer holds and the support of props.
· How Yin can support relaxation and a greater sense of balance—physically and mentally.
-KEY TAKE AWAYS-
· A clearer understanding of what connective tissue is and how Yin Yoga is working on our fascia and joints, enhancing openness and balance in our body.
· A practical bridge between the theory and the way you practice Yin Yoga on the mat.
The workshop includes a Yin Yoga class, theory and the link between theory and the poses. You will receive a handout to take home.
- ABOUT THE TEACHER-
“Hi, my name is Eva and my passion is to introduce as many people as possible to all the good that yoga can bring.
Yoga and meditation came on my path when I went out into the world after my studies. In India I did my first yoga pose and after that, yoga never left my life again. After many years of traveling, I returned to the Netherlands and worked in the business world for many years. At the same time, my yoga practice and my curiosity about the whole philosophy and theory of yoga deepened enormously. Yoga has been a part of my life for 20 years now and has a great influence on how I feel and live.
I have studied many forms of yoga and have arrived at my great loves: Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Mindfulness and Meditation. Besides this I’m also a dedicated practitioner of Vinyasa yoga. I have been practicing, teaching and training for years now and have owned a yoga studio as well.
I am fascinated by the connection of body and mind and the interaction between them. My approach is modern, light, positive and based on the latest scientific research. I feel the learning never stops!
My passion is to introduce people to all the benefits that yoga, mindfulness and meditation bring. To experience that regular practice brings lasting change for the good, both at a personal level as well in connection with the world around us.
My classes and trainings are a place where you are invited to work on the health of your body and mind through yoga.
I look forward to meeting you!”
Eva
