Wednesday Afternoon Yin Yoga

We have a weekly Wednesday afternoon Yin Yoga with Emilia at the Bristol Yoga Centre. Mindful Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga with postures held for longer periods of time between 3 to 5 minutes. The passive nature of long held postures gives time for a deeper journey to unfold into the meditative aspects of yoga.

Emilia also teaches monthly Mindful Yin yoga workshops on Saturdays which is always very popular. One of the regulars said:

‘I came out of the Saturday workshop as if I'd been on retreat for a weekend! I walked up the road afterwards and just sat for half an hour in blissful calm.’ 

Come and try her weekly yin class, it’s a great way to unwind after work. This class is available for drop in, MoveGB, 5 class pass and term bookings.
