Long Slow Deep Yoga helps us strengthen our patience, perseverance and the art of letting go. It’s a great compliment to both the flowing styles and Yin Yoga Styles. 

“For me it is the best of both worlds – It’s ultimate practice weaving Mindfulness Vipasana & a form of Yin Yoga – with a subtle drop of core. This helps those who may find it difficult to drop into stillness straight away a chance to wind down first. It also has fantastic benefits for the spine!”
