A full hour of Yin for the lower body — a deep, grounding stretch through the hips, legs and spine. We move slowly through Child’s Pose, Dragon, Sleeping Swan and a Shoelace fold and twist on each side, then open the spine with Melting Heart, Supported Fish and a Reclined Twist before resting. It’s a lovely way to release tension from tight hips and a stiff back, gain a little flexibility, and simply unwind. Come as you are — every pose has a gentler option and a deeper one.
Anyone carrying tension in the hips, legs or lower back — after long days at a desk, on your feet, or when everything below the waist feels tight. It’s also a calm, meditative hour if you just want to slow down and relax. New to Yin? Read the pose notes below first, then follow the shapes at your own pace.
Just your mat, and a warm, quiet space where you can be still for a while. A yoga block or two is handy — under the hips in Child’s Pose, or under the back in Supported Fish — though a cushion works just as well. Press pause whenever you need to.

The lower body — mainly the hips, legs and spine. The poses release tension through those areas and, over time, build a little more flexibility, while the long holds also help you unwind and relax.
Just a yoga block or two is handy — a block under the hips in Child's Pose or under the back in Supported Fish makes the shapes kinder. A cushion works just as well, and you can practice without props if you prefer.
Yin poses here are held for at least a couple of minutes each, with the hip poses repeated on both sides. The hold times are only suggestions — listen to your body and come out of any pose sooner if you need to.
