Course Brief

“Come as you are. Leave as you’ve never been.”

Rooted in the quiet wisdom of Hindu, Buddhist, and Taoist traditions, Yin Yoga Fascia Flow Form invites participants to explore the subtle power of rest, ritual, and renewal. With poetic language, fascia-inspired imagery, and props, Mahes guides participants through a practice that is both ancient and radically fresh.

Designed for midlife women and stressed souls of every season and reason, these classes blends anatomy, breath, deep spiritual aspect of mindfulness: "bare attention," "recollection," "awareness," "devotion," "presence,” “contemplation, movement and meaning. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or a curious beginner, you’ll find sequences, affirmations, breath techniques and visual anchors that meet you where you are — and gently carry you home to yourself.

Beyond its benefits for the connective tissues, this practice works to improve the connection between your mind and body as the interlinked nature provides a harmonious balance.
