SomaYin blends the gentle movement of Hanna Somatics with the static stretching of Yin Yoga. We will begin by tuning into the body and then gently unwinding the tissue through a gentle shortening and lengthening contraction called a pandiculation. These pandiculations help rewire parts of the body to which we have lost connection. This loss of connection, known as somato-motor amnesia can happen in an attempt to "turn down the volume" on areas of discomfort as a result of old injuries, compensation patterns, and postural dysfuntions. The small slow movements of somatics help retrain this connection. We will then use the postures of yin yoga to apply a gentle prolonged stretch to the region.

Each practice will have a focus on a different region of the body , such as upper back, neck and shoulders or lower back and hips.
