Yin Yoga- Feeding flow (Post 6-week check-up).

Yin Yoga it is a slow practice that offers space for rest and recovery. You will rarely come to standing in a Yin practice, it is almost always done horizontal and only offers only a few postures, held for several minutes each. As you find yourself stationary in a pose for long periods of time, the muscles must be in a relaxed state, so we encourage the use of bolsters, MVMT blocks, the MVMT ball and pillows to bring the floor closer to you and to encourage your body to relax into each pose. Yin is a very calming practice and helps to reduce stress, increase circulation, improve flexibility, release fascia and improve joint mobility. A perfect offering for the evening, or after a dynamic MVMT Pilates class.

This class is the antidote for feeding, nursing and baby wearing. It combines all my favourite postures for opening the chest and back muscles, whilst using the movement over-ball as support. We move through a child pose thread the needle and offer straight jacket pose as a progression, a prone chest stretch and finish reclining over the over-ball to open up the heart.  

While the class and postures are gentle and safe, we do encourage that you wait until you get the all clear from your doctor and pelvic floor physio at your 6-week check-up before participating in this class.
