Yin Routine · Intermediate
26 minutes for tight legs, hamstrings and feet
20 min · 8 poses · no props
Twenty-six minutes to work slowly through the legs — the hamstrings, inner thighs, calves and even the often-forgotten feet. This is the practice for anyone chasing more flexibility, or whose legs feel tight from running, cycling or long days on your feet. Keep a soft bend in the knees in every forward fold so the stretch stays in the muscle, not the joint, and back off the moment anything feels sharp. Come as you are, and let time do the work.

Press play and follow along — each hold is timed, with a gentle chime and a moment to ease out before the next pose. Use Skip or Prev to move at your own pace.
Over time, yes. Long, patient holds are how Yin encourages the hamstrings, inner thighs and calves to release. Keep a soft bend in the knees so the stretch stays in the muscle, not the joint.
It's a gentle intermediate practice because the leg holds are deep, but beginners can absolutely follow along by micro-bending the knees and easing off well before anything feels sharp.
Two or three times a week is a sustainable rhythm that builds flexibility steadily. Consistency matters far more than forcing any single stretch.
