Yin Yoga
Developed in the 80's, this new form of yoga came from a Daoist philosophy to bring health to the joints and associated connective tissues by remaining still in shapes for longer periods of time. Closer to traditional Hatha practice in its pacing. Also uses TCM"s Meridian theory to remove blockages in one's energy field.
