Yin Yoga for the fascia

Fascial training for yogis Yin Yoga is fascia yoga and thus the ideal method to keep our connective tissue supple, tone the figure, and become pain-free. However, to properly stretch the fascia, the use of props is essential, even for advanced practitioners. Only with the help of cushions, pillows, blocks, and straps can we allow our bodies to fully release muscular tension - a prerequisite for effectively training the fascia. Yoga teacher Sonja Zernick-Förster places great emphasis on these props in her Yin Yoga classes and demonstrates in her new book the various ways beginners and advanced practitioners can use them for optimal fascia stretching. The Yin poses are clearly illustrated and accompanied by information and illustrations about the specific fascia being addressed.
