Yin yoga, explained
A slower kind of strong
Yin yoga holds each shape for several minutes, using bolsters and blocks to let gravity do the work. It suits tight hips, desk-bound shoulders and anyone who wants to slow down.
Capped class sizes
Every yin class is capped at eighteen mats, so you get hands-on adjustments from your teacher, every time.

Before you come
Your yin yoga questions, answered
Everything to know before your first slow class at Cuba Street.
Do I need to be flexible to start yin yoga?
No. Yin yoga works with props — bolsters, blocks and blankets — so your body is supported in every shape, whatever your starting point.
How is yin different from vinyasa flow?
Vinyasa flow is heated and moves between poses; yin is slower and unheated, with each shape held for several minutes. See Heated vinyasa flow for the faster-paced class.
What should I bring to my first class?
Wear comfortable, loose layers. Yin classes are unheated, so bring a jumper for the restful poses at the end.
How early should I arrive for my first class?
Arrive a few minutes early to meet your teacher and settle onto your mat before class starts.
How many people are in a class?
Every class is capped at eighteen mats, so you get hands-on adjustments and room to breathe.
Can beginners join yin yoga straight away?
Yes. Yin yoga is gentle and slow-paced, open to every body and every level — no experience needed.
