Gentle and yin yoga

Santa Cruz Yoga teaches gentle yoga and yin yoga every week at our studio, 402 Ingalls Street #11 on the Westside of Santa Cruz. These classes move slowly and use props. They suit beginners, people coming back after a break or an injury, and anyone who wants a quieter practice.

Gentle Yoga

Tuesday and Thursday at 3:30 pm. A relaxed pace with props and modifications, so you can work at the level that's right for your body that day.

Yin yoga

In yin you hold each pose, sitting or lying down, for three to five minutes while the muscles and connective tissue let go. It's quiet and meditative.

  • Gentle Yin and Meditation, Monday at 10:45 am

  • Candlelight Yin Yoga, Sunday at 6:30 pm, in a room lit by candles

Before you come

Tell the teacher if it's your first class or if you have an injury, and they'll help you adjust. We lend mats, blocks, bolsters and blankets at no charge. Please arrive at least 10 minutes early.

Times change now and then, so check the schedule before you come.
