Kate began studying outdoor recreation in 2004 and felt the value of experiential education while spending time with others in wild places. These experiences and interactions impacted her life, creating a place for self-discovery and giving her an appreciation for the natural world. Through her adventures in nature she has gained new perspectives on her daily existence. Her intention is to provide individuals with the opportunity to explore and enjoy the vibrant world within and around us. Connect with the simplicity of your own true nature and the inherent joy of being by bridging the gap between nature and yourself, finding expansion in the mind and body.

This workshop will move beyond the asanas, although it will include a physical practice. We will explore the principles of Yin Yoga, the resonance, intention and transformation of Qi, and the attributes of Taoist Meridian System and the Tantric Chakra System. Additionally, we’ll delve into examining the meridian channels and energy centers in Yin Yoga asana’s, as well as practicing mindfulness and loving kindness in meditation. Lastly we’ll focus on the intersection of Yin Yoga and human anatomy, discussing how the practice revitalizes the connective tissue and restores the curvature of the sacrum and lumbar spine, explaining the ways that tension and compression restrict range of motion, and review the natural range of movement in the hips and spine. Yin Yoga highlights individual physical differences make each person’s practice very unique. Kate hopes this workshop will bring attention and breath to any aspect of yourself, emotional, energetic, or physical, and will create space for change. Call Samadhi to reserve your space today!

The practice of Yin Yoga deals with the more yin parts of our body, those that lie closest to our core, generally the bones and connective tissue, rather than the muscles, which are the more yang parts of our bodies. Yin addresses our connective tissue needs and helps us to sit in the pure presence of awareness during our asana practice. All asanas are practiced on the floor and held for an extended period of time, ranging anywhere from three to five to eight or more minutes. This extension of time allows us to relax the muscles around the areas we’re working, allowing the connective tissue to be gently and safely maintained. 
The practice of Yin Yoga is important for the following reasons:
  • It helps balance the yin and yang aspects of the self.
  • It encourages the increased flow of qi or prana, primarily in the six meridians of the body that pass through the areas of the hips.
  • It helps maintain the health of the connective tissue.
  • It helps us develop a mindful meditation practice.
