Summary

Yin yoga is a gentle, meditative practice that goes beyond muscle training. Fascia, ligaments and joints are gently stimulated through long, passive postures. The mind becomes calm, the breath deeper - deep relaxation ensues. Yin yoga helps to release tension, promote flexibility and harmonize the flow of energy. The focus is on mindfulness, letting go and surrendering rather than muscular strength.

In our hectic world, the yang aspect dominates - activity, performance, speed. Yin yoga creates balance: it specifically addresses the connective tissue - important for healthy joints, especially in old age. While muscles adapt quickly, fascia needs gentle, constant stimulation to remain supple and resilient. Yin yoga supports this and provides well-being and inner peace.

Our Yin Yoga seminars offer a variety of focuses to experience the gentle power of this practice from different perspectives:

๐Ÿ•‰ Slowing down with Yin Yoga (31.10.-2.11. / 31.12.-2.1.) - get out of the stress of everyday life and into a state of inner peace and serenity.
๐Ÿ•‰ Stress management with yin yoga (23.-25.1.2026) - This weekend uses mindful yin yoga exercises to help you let go of stress, calm down and find new inner strength.
๐Ÿ•‰ Yin yoga (26.-8.3.2026) - a weekend of mindfulness and letting go that gives you peace, flexibility and new inspiration for your everyday life.

No matter which seminar you choose - Yin Yoga gives you a space for stillness, devotion and regeneration. Learn to sink into the postures with ease, consciously feel the moment and experience a deep connection to yourself.

๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™‚๏ธ Basic knowledge of yoga and meditation required.
