Yin Yoga

All levels, beginners to advanced practitioners. Modifications and options will be given to suit the students practice.

While Vinyasa yoga is Yang and focuses on your muscles and blood, Yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones. Yin yoga is mostly floor based, slow and meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and the physical sensations of your body.

Because you’re holding poses for a longer period of time, yin yoga helps you stretch and lengthen deep connective tissues as you create gentle traction as you hold. This slow practice is also teaching you how to breathe through discomfort and sit with your thoughts-in turn teaching you how to be still and meditate.

The practice of yin yoga is based on ancient Chinese philosophies and Taoist principles which believe there are pathways of Qi (energy) that run through our bodies in channels called meridians. By stretching and deepening into postures, you’re opening up any blockages in these meridian channels and corresponding chakra and element and releasing that energy to flow freely. Your energetic body will be more balanced as the chi can flow freely, and your physical body will be more at ease-less tension and more flexibility in muscles and joints. 

Yin yoga focuses on 3 themes of Stillness, Surrender, and Softness in the practice. You will learn to find stillness in Yin yoga poses, to surrender into the poses-not pushing into the body, and finally to find softness in the body and the breath so we may really relax the body and mind. 

I look forward to sharing this rewarding practice with you!

Great job Brookfield Primary School for raising £6000, to update their library with books that truly reflect the diversity of our community! A massive shout out to The Brookfield Community (formerly the PTA), particularly Anella Wickenden, as well as @breathewithkerry and @christelassb who donated all their income from their recent Breath Workshop. Very happy that Moon Women's Health was also able to contribute in a small way to this achievement. ALSO 👇👇👇 ☀️ If you're around today, make your way down to the Brookfield Summer Fair - 12pm to 3pm. They'll be amazing food and fun for the kids ☀️

A big 30c welcome to Hannah Mayall. Hannah joined the Moon collective several months ago, bringing with her a rejuvenating Monday morning Vinyasa Yoga – a perfect way to start the week – find out more in our bio. Over to Hannah 👇 Hi, I’m Hannah. I’m a gardener, a creator of bobbly hedges (check out the house on the corner of Laurier and Dartmouth Park Avenue), a yoga practitioner and a yoga teacher. I have lived and worked in the streets around Moon most of my life and feel committed to this community. I have brought up 4 children, supporting and attending the local schools and during the years of work and parenthood I have always had some form of mind/body practice, which has supported me through the various phases of my life. In the last 20+ years this has been yoga. Now I am older, wiser, calmer and even more rooted here than ever I can really see the value of a habitual practice especially when shared with members of my community. I am very pleased to be here at Moon on Monday mornings offering a Vinyasa flow style yoga class with an emphasis on sun salutations and breath led movement. I have also recently started a session on Wednesdays at the newly opened Highgate Newtown Community Centre - @hncp_2025 I hope to share some of the faith I have built in yoga practice in an effort to give back and invite more people to find a moment of peace, stability and introspection in their day which has got to be a good thing in our hectic world. My classes are open to all abilities BUT I especially want to invite those who feel they are too old or too unfit or in some way unable to bend… yoga is an internal and individual practice and not all about creating great shapes (I have recently qualified as a breath work teacher ((but more of that anon!))

A couple of helpers to mount the latest beautiful artwork that we're fortunate enough to host at Moon. As the warm weather invites us to swim in the lakes, rivers and sea you might want to keep an eye out for mermaids. There are none on the Heath, although I might have felt something tickle my toes in the Ladies' Pond recently, but that didn’t stop me asking local artist Jen Cable to lend us this piece, inspired by the tale of the little mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen. Unlike the tale of Ariel in the Disney film, the original story is a warning about the importance of keeping your voice and using it to create the kind of inclusive and supportive society in which we can all be valued. It felt fitting that Moon should host the piece for the coming weeks. You can read more about Jen's work, and the relevance of the tale to women today in Jen’s blog post entitled ‘Hold your Tongue’ - find the link in our bio.
