Gentle Yin Yoga for Beginners | Full Body Stretch for Peace, Hips & Knees & Legs | Gentle January

Описание: This gentle yin yoga practice for beginners is part of my Gentle January series and is designed to help you slow down, release tension, and cultivate inner peace through mindful movement.

In this full-length yin yoga class, we combine long-held yin poses with a small amount of standing work to gently stretch the hips, knees, legs, spine, and connective tissue. This practice is slow, supportive, and beginner-friendly, with clear guidance, options, and plenty of time to listen to your body.

This class is ideal if you are:
• New to yin yoga
• Looking for gentle yoga for beginners
• Wanting to stretch hips, knees, and IT band safely
• Needing a calming, grounding practice
• Practicing yoga at home
• Seeking stress relief, nervous system support, and peace

✨ Props recommended:
2 blankets or towels (rolled) and/or a yoga block for knee and hip support.

🧘‍♀️ This practice includes:
• Shanti Mudra (gesture for peace)
• Long-held yin poses for connective tissue
• Gentle standing stretches
• Hip, knee, IT band, and spine release
• Seated, kneeling, supine, prone, and standing poses
• A long, restful Savasana

💕Hello, I’m Katy. I invite EVERYONE to practice and move with me because movement and wellness matters. I’m a registered yoga teacher with the Yoga Alliance E-RYT500,YACEP, and RPYT. Yoga found me when I needed it the most, and I will be forever grateful. And I am forever grateful we found each other! I am a wife, mother of four, and a pharmacist. I offer thoughtful and safe practices with purpose that focus on listening to your body and your heart. Please join me, whether it is prenatal class, a 10 minute shoulder class, an hour long hatha flow, a short how to video, or a yin class. Let us take care of ourselves and feel better for our present selves and our future selves. Thank you for showing up.
