What is Yin yoga?

Yin yoga is a slow, meditative practice where poses are held for 3-5 minutes. It targets deep connective tissue — fascia, ligaments, joints — releasing tension that active yoga styles don't reach. It's deeply relaxing and ideal for stress, tight hips, and calming the nervous system.

Who is Yin yoga for?

Desk workers & drivers

If you sit for hours, Yin releases the tension that builds in hips, lower back, and shoulders

Stressed or anxious

The slow pace and long holds calm the nervous system — some students fall asleep

Athletes & active people

Yin complements intense training by releasing deep tension that stretching doesn't reach

Anyone feeling tight

Whether from age, inactivity, or life — Yin gives your body time to release gradually

What to expect in a Yin class

1

Settling in

We begin gently, allowing you to arrive and let go of the day. No rushing.

2

Long-held poses

Each pose is held for 3-5 minutes. We use props to make them comfortable — you're not pushing or straining.

3

Gradual release

As you stay in the pose, your body gradually releases. It's a different sensation from active stretching — deeper, more sustained.

4

Deep relaxation

Classes end with extended relaxation. You'll leave feeling different — calmer, more open, properly rested.

Questions about Yin yoga in Radstock

What is Yin yoga?

Yin yoga is a slow, meditative practice where poses are held for 3-5 minutes. Unlike active yoga styles, Yin targets deep connective tissue — fascia, ligaments, and joints — releasing tension that faster movement doesn't reach.

How far is Frome from Radstock?

Just 15 minutes via the A362. It's a straightforward drive through pleasant countryside. Many Radstock students say the journey becomes part of the wind-down.

Can I do Yin yoga if I'm very inflexible?

Absolutely. Yin is actually ideal for tight bodies. We use props (bolsters, blocks, blankets) to make every pose comfortable, and the long holds give your body time to release gradually. You're not trying to achieve a shape — you're allowing release.

Is Yin yoga suitable for beginners?

Yes. There's no complicated sequencing to follow — just simple poses held long enough to feel the benefit. Many people find Yin a gentle, accessible way to start yoga.

How is Yin different from Hatha yoga?

Hatha is more active — you move between poses, building strength and flexibility. Yin is passive — you settle into poses and stay, targeting deeper tissue. Many students do both; they complement each other perfectly.
