What is Yin Yoga

The theory of Yin Yoga

Is to say, Paul Grilley to a Westerner in China's yin and yang between the principle of finding balance, and then integrated into a number of human anatomy science point of view, the development of a theory. In other words, he considered that more often pay attention to strength training exercises Posture laws, the need for ease-style action, stretched our muscles and tendons, and let the body do not attach too much importance muscle, less soft; only action, less their contact with the soul of time.

Therefore,He designed the movements are easy, such as: Butterfly type,劈腿former lying-style .... The law of regular exercise posture for people who are not a "heavyweight" action. However, it is difficult: each move to stay about 5 minutes. In other words, every action is to stay in the Lacing + cases, to make one after another action.

Paul Grillry that: do Yin Yoga, in addition to breathing co-ordination, there is a principle that the lower body to be extended and a little upper body muscle exercises. Because he believes that: Most people most of the leg movement only on walking, running or muscle training,Extension is not enough, and therefore more Lacing. But in order to balance, upper body muscles need to practice some.

Differences between East and West

Paul Grilley this theory is mainly aimed at training the muscles of the Westerners favorite design. Even if they do yoga, strength training also liked the feeling of Ashtanga Yoga or power yoga. Therefore, they are need to stretch out way to achieve the balance.

Yoga already focus more on the stretch-style body posture law, therefore,Yin Yoga will feel very familiar with these movements, nothing. If your past position law has attached great importance to flexibility, and will not have to go practicing yin yoga, because it would over-stretch our muscles and connective tissue.

However, if you are very much geared towards the recent practice, but added can be Yin yoga means to extend its usually not noticed the muscles and tendon. However, it is an extension of time is very long, so please do not stay in their own maximum limits, for example:劈腿when you do not hack to the maximum point of view, but a conservative, to close some of these back,So that they could in the long run Do not over-stretch injury喔~

As Paul Grilley said, only the yin and yang balance, we can be harmony, so that their own level to achieve greater joy. Is not it?
