Yin Yoga Principles


Yin Yoga will make you calm and will help to prepare your mind to meditate to keep relax and observe with patient. When you keep still and relaxed your Chi will be more active. There are three principles in this practice; being still, chasing

the edge of the stretch and being able to keep it for a length of time. The practitioner needs to find the edge of the stretch and keep still for 3 to 7min, depending how long and often one have been practicing. The participant will only move to progress on the stretch.



Yin yoga focuses in stretching connective tissue, fascia and joints. This kind of tissue is stiff and inelastic. Connective tissue needs to exercise for long periods of gentle traction. The opposite, Yang exercises, work on the muscle, this elastic tissue responds better with rhythmic repetitions and muscular contraction.



Yin Yoga combines the meridian theory of Chinese Taoist with the chakra theory of the Tantric Yoga. In both theories our body has energy that runs all along the body through channels that meet in centers, which control the energy. Yin yoga uses the meridians as channels from the Taoist tradition and the chakras as centers from the Tantric tradition.


When practicing Yin yoga we try to canalise the Chi freely through the meridians, Chi is more powerful when we are still, yin poses and meditation will help to canalise Chi.


New studies about fascia have demonstrated that fascia is a tissue that connects every organ and cell in the body. Fascia is a water rich tissue that carries electrical and magnetic signals around the body. With every contraction and expansion of the fascia signals are sent to cells to tell how to form in relation to the movement.


All this new studies about fascia reaffirm the meridian theory from the Chinese medicine about energy or Chi, running through different paths in the body connecting every organ and cell in the body.

    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead?
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?
