Tao Yin Yoga: A Jour­ney Inside Yourself

Exter­nally you appear toned and grace­ful; inter­nally you feel uni­fied, bal­anced and steely strong. Delight in an entic­ing non com­pet­i­tive space. Sur­round your self with like minded individuals.

Explore the phi­los­o­phy of Taoist yoga — the con­cept of non– inter­fer­ence, the nat­ural breath cycle and the cir­cu­la­tion of energy. We will begin with Taoist med­i­ta­tions blended with chi — gong and move­ment for ground­ing and relaxation.

Expe­ri­ence the art of Tao Yin Yoga. Cul­ti­vated from an inte­gra­tion of Indian yoga and the heal­ing prac­tices and spir­i­tual philoso­phies of ancient China, Tao-Yin yoga is based on Taoist prin­ci­pal of liv­ing in har­mony with nature( accept­ing one’s body where it is at). Inte­grat­ing sim­ple and gen­tle chi-gong move­ments per­formed at the begin­ning and end of class increases vital­ity and restores har­mony to the bones and joints. Guided visu­al­iza­tions enable the par­tic­i­pant to move into a med­i­ta­tive state for deep­en­ing ones prac­tice and tran­scend­ing per­ceived lim­i­ta­tions. Unique pos­tures pro­mote still­ness, clear ener­getic blockage’s, enhance cir­cu­la­tion, develop deep core strength, mus­cle tone, bal­ance and sta­mina. Tao Yin pos­tures are done pri­mar­ily on the floor allow­ing the body to receive sup­port from the earth while open­ing into the pose like a flower open­ing into a bloom. Soft flow­ing move­ments pro­mote space between the joints while invit­ing flu­id­ity, flex­i­bil­ity and grace in the body. Par­tic­i­pants notice a dif­fer­ence after the first class yet the out­come of this prac­tice over time is a notice­able reha­bil­i­ta­tion of range of motion, of increased flex­i­bil­ity, joint mobil­ity, over­all health main­te­nance, bal­anced emo­tions, and improved metabolism/ health of the inter­nal organs.
