Slow Art & Yin Yoga at the FiggeInstructor: Becky Nakashima Brooke
Class Description:
Join us in observing a piece of art for few minutes, followed by meditative yin yoga practice led by Becky Nakashima Brooke. The class will end with savasana, with warm stones and eye masks offered during this time.
Slow art is the practice of spending more time observing art. The average person spends 8-30 seconds observing a piece of art. Slow art will allow you more time to connect with the art. The piece of art will be chosen for the class to view. Yin yoga is the practice of using seated and lying down poses to target the connective tissues around the joints, tendons, and fascia. We linger in the poses anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes. Reiki is offered during the poses for deeper relaxation. The time will be kept by Becky, but each of the students will have the freedom to adjust when needed. This practice is beneficial for all levels.
