Hey yogis, in this 45 min yin yoga class I'll take you through some pretty deep stretches! Blocks aren't necessary for this class but I do recommend having two or grabbing some cushions from around the house. This is a full body yin yoga class to improve your flexibility. We'll get into some more challenging yin yoga asanas making this an intermediate level class. Enjoy!
What is Yin Yoga? Yin yoga is often called the Yoga of the joints because unlike other styles of yoga, the emphasis is not on the muscles but on the deep connective tissue. Connective tissue is made up of fascia, ligaments and tendons which surround and form your joints. Yin yoga improves the range of motion in your joints and also strengthens them. The results and benefits are more flexibility and greater range of motion and also more stability within your joints.
There are 3 principles of Yin Yoga.
1. Find your edge
2. Be still
3. Hold the pose
Find your edge means respecting your body's limits and not pushing too far and risking injury. Pull back a little bit and as you hold the pose you will be able to go deeper into it without pushing too far or hurting yourself.
Being still means that once you are in the pose it is important to completely relax your muscles so the benefits can get into the connective tissues and joints. Try not to fidget or move or distract yourself, this is a meditative practice. Breathe deeply in and out through the nose.
Holding the pose means that in Yin Yoga a pose can be held for 1-10 minutes depending on the pose performed and on the comfort level of the student.

Time for some yummy yin! This is a pretty intense class with more "advanced" poses but you can always modify them to make them easier. Remember, we are simply trying to find our edge - not push past it. ❤️ Let's connect in my Facebook Group for students ✨ bit.ly/ywkfbgroup

[@coconutsoursop8539]

Have done yoga for years and this is thw best yin EVER! Ive now finish but Im gonna do it again now....i really like it!

[@carolinbraun8]

So not for pregnancy?🙈 Too bad... Would love to see another Yin pregnancy class from you.🥰😍

[@denisehorne-kaplan8941]

Great practice 👍👍 and the background music is much more relaxing, loved it ♥️

[@burcugultekin-punsmann647]

I love this class! I am doing it for the second time and will be looking forward for other intense yin classes! Thanks in advance

[@nancykoo80]

great class enjoy it, love the music also. interested in class for core strengthening

[@kristeenpaddock]

I just started yoga and so far you are the easiest person to learn from

[@yogawithkassandra]

Thank you, that's a lovely compliment 🙏

[@Bailaraq]

I feel exactly the same!!!

[@zarathustraspitamaalcornej9496]

Thought exactly the same 😊 yes

[@timmytim9900]

I do yoga with Kassanda, Sean Vigue and Paula Lay. Great instructors!

[@palomaformell4245]

Agree. Kassandra is my favorite

[@sweetchinmusic3]

Namaste, I am grateful that the ancient wisdom of India and Hinduism ( yoga and meditation) is being appreciated and adapted all over the world now...

[@davideichikawa]

I’m in my 10th year of yoga and came across this session. Thanks Kassandra!!! This is one of the most restorative sessions that I’ve experienced. As an aside, I like that you let silence fill the time allowing me to settle into the poses without distraction.

[@vickywitton1008]

Yes, I have always liked the lack of waffle

[@atsukotanaka1487]

i have enjoyed your deep stretch series and yin yoga series this year. thank you so much!

[@sile8389]

The first pose saved me yesterday. I was in a cave making my way down when I slipped. I ended in first pose with left leg extended and right left bent. Due to my flexibility with this pose I was unhurt. So blessed ❤❤❤

[@pamelamurray5896]

Kassandra, I was hospitalized for septus kidneys and bladder. My Right kidney is still painful and I'm recovering. I asked for prayers in our group and many people have responded. I can't believe I actually got on my Yoga mat and completed with modifications. Thank you, Kassandra and to our group. I did it. Now to lay b k down. Drinking my water after this practice. GOD is amazing. I have.y 500hr multi style Yoga certification but you , Kassandra have been my mentor and will always be. HAVE a wonderful day and great week ahead. I've lost track of what day it is. LOL. Love to all and thank you to all of my Yoga friends.

[@xiaomei883]

Namaste, Kassandra. Feel calm after doing this. Love u so much. xoxox

[@denisehorne-kaplan8941]

Love the background music on this one

[@poczwarka85]

The feeling of getting deeper and deeper in pose with every breath-beautiful 🙏

[@yogawithkassandra]

It's a wonderful feeling!

[@thomasscherrer8393]

That "thread the swan" is a move I didn't think existed before today. Now that I know it exists, I never want to get out of it! Always the beginner's mind.

[@sonnysnavarro6860]

That is the most intense pose for me and I can’t wait to get out of it 🤣🤣🤣

[@vickiwilder925]

Kassandra, you are an absolute joy. I have stuck with you because of your obvious love of yoga and a lack of ego. This makes learning from you and listening to your voice easy. I have been able to make yoga my daily practice finally. Thankyou ❤️

[@BraveInRibbons]

This. 💯

[@mariafrey6190]

I am so grateful for you and your guidance. ☮️❤😊🙏

[@sizzledizzle_sizzdizz]

Holy wowzers! What a refreshing and challenging class - I feel incredibly refreshed and energized. Thank you very much!

[@yogawithkassandra]

Thank you, so glad you enjoyed it :)

[@sonnysnavarro6860]

Thank you 🙏

[@gimydaloot]

Kassandra is the best! I love her Yin Yoga routines for mobility & winding down in the evening.

[@tatb5535]

Danke!

[@pgl1958]

Love her classes! Best one I ve tried. Unlike many who tend to push or do difficult poses for its own sake, she is very measured and all about doing what feels right for you. She's also very easy to follow so u can just listen plus she's very precise on how to do pose correctly. I ve tried various of her YIN n deep stretch classes and invariably feel energised after. 5 stars!!!

[@l.bernard2322]

Thank you Kassandra. My mind was prepared for a 10 min Yoga with you but I have made it to 45 min. I struggled a lot with the Swan/Needle position from the right side; I did it so easily from the left side that I doubt it that I was doing it right.

[@Berrycherry-l2m]

I always get so excited on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings to see what video you are posting! Can’t wait to do this one later today. Thanks for all you do.

[@debrabringenberg1137]

I agree with the person above. Kassandra, you are the best yoga teacher I have encountered. I learn so easily from you!

[@ohrkidmusic8898]

Kassandra, your energy is so pure and clear. Thank you for making these spaces available. Feel deeply blessed each time I take one of your classes.

[@ellafox9803]

Your channel is supreme. Thank you for sharing your time and classes with the KZbin world

[@labellavita9382]

Thank you so much Kassandra! Very nice set of poses + what I really like about all videos you post: right amount of talking - enough to guide and make sure everybody got the pose, but without chattering and loading us with personal info (like most of KZbin yogis do).

[@yogawithkassandra]

Yes I like to be quiet in Yin :)

[@kanikas097]

This was my first time practicing Yin Yoga. I loved every bit of it and look forward to doing it again. My hip flexors were sore and they definitely feel so much relaxed after this. :)

[@timmytim9900]

This video is my fave yin yoga video. Thank you Kassandra!

[@brittarouthier1485]

Another wonderful session with Kassandra!

[@alissandorama3337]

Your yoga videos are awesome! The attention to quality sound, choice of music and combination of poses make doing yoga at home such a pleasure! I also really enjoyed this 45 min. yin video, so relaxing. Thank you!

[@ChristopherPesqueira]

This is one of my favorite practices Kassandra! I always come back. Thank you so much for sharing your practice with us! Namaste my friend. ❤🙏

[@crissyphillips3291]

great stretch. Unique poses. Just a little something more than the others. Thank you

[@KTB77777]

I love the music in this class! Beautiful. Thank you Kassandra! You are loved.

[@KTB77777]

I always love your classes. I love your hair the way you are wearing it in this video. You are such a beautiful , talented woman. God bless you today and thank you for getting me through Covid 19!

[@paigesuttle9681]

I just love my yoga sessions with you, Miss Kassandra. Been doing them for years. Thank you 🙏

[@kavisweet81]

I'm a marathoner doing most of ur yoga classes helps me so much to ease, calm deep stretch thanku so much

[@emina4836]

So many new Yin Yoga teachers on KZbin but you always stay the best! :) Stay yourself, stay grounded and humble as you are. Love

[@vikir3702]

Thank you so much Kassandra again :) :) Just what I needed this morning. I love practicing yin yoga with you. Thank you so much and have a lovely weekend. :)

[@soniakhanna6850]

I really felt a deep deep release with this session. Thank you so much

[@nancygraney2435]

Love yin and love your classes. Yin class after a yang day is great. Thank you 🌿

[@iriswoodall5865]

Merci merci merci ! Jusqu'ici c'est ma séance de yin préférée que tu as posté. J'adore tes cours de yin, inégalables !

[@sonnysnavarro6860]

I’m back again and thank you again

[@elvirareichmuth9341]

Great yin practice highly recommend namaste elvira

[@ZenWithDebby]

This was a challenging, yet beautiful Total Body Yin Yoga class. I also love pigeon + thread the needle. Such a heavenly pose to hold for a longer amount of time 😍. Thank you, Kassandra 💖

[@kimberlyschilitz5593]

This one made me so happy, thank you thank you thank you 🙏

[@edl9647]

Gorgeous class - ever grateful to you Kassandra 🙏🏽 wonderful teacher and kind soul

[@ntrowan3987]

This is my favourite of all your yin classes. I’ve done it at least 5 times. I really like that it has a lot of forward folding. I find that really grounding and calming.

[@garycumming1825]

Just discovered your channel and I'm really enjoying trying out all your classes - I especially love the yin classes ! Thank you very much

[@elvirareichmuth9341]

Wonderful Yin Highly recommend thanks Elvira

[@soothingsouls2646]

Have a great day everyone!

[@rachelrenae78]

This felt so good, I am able to get deeper into these stretches the more I continue to do your classes. Awesome class! Namaste!! 🙏❤️

[@LorraineRo]

Yin yoga is amazing! When you hit that "sweet spot" where there is tension, but not too much to turn into pain while holding the pose ❤️ you can really feel the muscles relax and the tension fade. It is truly yummy! Had to do some variations as I haven't been practicing for too long yet, but still really enjoyed this practice. Once again, thank you Kassandra. You are teaching me to love yoga and the effect it has on my mind, body and soul.

[@jaythejovial]

This was INTENSE! I had to stop the first time and do some of your other videos for a bit and finally came back to this and did it! I feel so accomplished. Thank you for posting such amazing content and for keeping me motivated 🙏

[@chriskalberg6356]

Really appreciate the longer Yin classes. Many thanks.

[@apseudonym]

Wow! I really went somewhere in that Shavasana

[@sweepingsage]

Thank you Kassandra. I’ve been following you for years and I appreciate you very deeply. You’ve been with me through many hard times and good times. I know that I can always return back to my mat. I’m wishing you all the best in the world 💗

[@innajoyce1]

Thank you so much, I love your classes 🙏

[@yogawithmargie]

oh so deep! Thank you. Had to modify most of poses, but an amazing sequence !

[@nelly_nelle]

Loved the higher intensity of this video. I am excited to do more like this with an upper body focus... its very hard to find good yoga sequences with chest openers.

[@janmareevodanovich6441]

thank you energized is my word

[@canamotohashi]

Hi from Japan! I just bought another block to enjoy this deep stretch yin video! I'd done some yoga classes before a hand surgery. I dont feel comfortable to do yoga flow anymore, but yin yoga is perfect combination of calmness of mind and getting flexibility! My favorite one is a swan pose with holding a toe! Cant wait to try more of your routines!

[@mellisalim2524]

Your stretches are very thorough & so helpful, I always practice your videos at least once a day and I find release from sitting all day. Thank you Cassandra!

[@dyfkdstkk4006]

all of these poses are the hardest for me in any practice.. I'm gonna save this video to work on my weaknesses

[@yaeleshet1612]

Challenging and satisfying. Thank you Kassandra

[@elizabethpetruzzi3830]

Hi Kassandra--I love your yoga classes and do one almost every day. I would like to make one suggestion--change your music, maybe to Eno or Bud ambient music that is relaxing.

[@DailyMyChildhood]

Workout is very important ! All your movements are the best for health & beauty 😊

[@saltandsassy]

thank you as always

[@eturno]

I couldn't do most of the advanced poses, but it was really good to see where I might get someday! 😊❤️ Thank you so much!

[@delicias.p8405]

All the best to you! 😊

[@arlenedeborja7535]

Hi Kassandra! I am one of your subscriber. I always watch and follow your deep stretch yin yoga. You are awesome!!! Love you!!! Ur d best!

[@CCienM]

Thank you, Kassandra🧘‍♀️

[@hjf11.11]

I tried this class for the first time probably a year ago and it was so hard! Today it felt easy. Amazing how over time your progress adds up. Thank you for all that you share with us kassandra. I practice with you everyday ❤️

[@cryptotalk0x]

As always. Thank you

[@shaunagoodridge2432]

This was lovely! Hard, but lovely. I especially loved the first pose! These were some fun variations on your usuals for yin.

[@kelb2186]

Holy cow! Very intense yin yoga, but it felt sooo good! I'm definitely going to be doing this one at least once a week! My body was very sore from the past couple of weightlifting days and needed this so badly! Thank you! For beginners, I recommend having a bolster and yoga blanket to aid with these poses.

[@suzettestrydom95]

Thank you for a delicious class

[@mairavp]

I love this one!

[@ticktick6585]

First pose and swan with thread the needle were so good for me. My ankle flexibility increased in just a few minutes. Thank you 🤗

[@jessicaarielcohen9995]

Thank you Kassandra, I love soo much your Yin Yoga lessons!

[@marthaledesma4695]

Love it 😊. Thank you Kassandra ❤

[@garyfujino9036]

I love the variety of yoga practices that you offer. It is a great way to keep my body balanced and supple as well as recovery from my weight lifting and martial arts practice. Thanks for what you do and what you offer. You're the best!

[@muiawat]

That was amazing ! Thank u ! I love your yin content

[@luvthisoldhome]

Thank you. Lovely class.

[@kS-qu6lz]

You are wonderful, thank you for such a beautiful, awakening class. Namaste.

[@paigesuttle9681]

Thanks for this, Kassandra. Felt great and also I love those pants!!!

[@viktoriap6736]

That was amazing, the butterfly variation is my new favourite. Thank you!

[@Artspeaketh]

I like to practice with you every single day! I am so grateful to have found you.

[@lilu7427]

Very relaxing practice. I feel fresh and calm.

[@andyvogel2144]

Thanks Kassandra. Another amazing yin session. You’re my favorite yogi on KZbin. You go deep! Thank you

[@amandatkids854]

Oh Kassandra, this was absolutely delicious! What an awesome, challenging yin practice. So happy I set my intention to do this upon waking, after a hard workout yesterday, this I so looked forward to and I loved how much it challenged me. Cool new pose for me with the swan and thread the needle. Thank you sooo much. You made me even more happy this morning and now I’m off for a walk with a bounce in my step! Have a great weekend. You are such a gift to the yogi world with all you create and share!

[@dandie2024]

Incredible class🧘🏻‍♀️

[@nicolebertolina7051]

Excellent work out, I have been going back to the 10 min work out and the 5 min guided meditation every morning! please consider posting more meditation and hands free classes

[@MsAudreyCeline]

I love your Yin yoga classes! They really help me work on being present especially during this pandemic. Thank you Kass, we appreciate you!

[@shalumagan]

This practice of Yin yoga was very good by far 🙏

[@ninasjostrom]

Loved this class for many reasons but most of all because it incorporated some slightly different yin yoga postures than usually! Thanks for this and as always great teaching, feels a lot like doing in a yoga studio when well teached! x

[@Royayoga]

This is the most relaxed state that i've been in a while. Thank you for all your videos Kassandra.

[@lilscorpio84]

i love your yin videos! This one was quite challenging :D

[@prissinger2503]

Thank you very much for this session 🙏 The thread the needle while in swan was particularly satisfying. 😊

[@kristina9304]

I loved this practice!! I was surprised that not only could I do every variation and hold for the whole time, but at how amazing it all felt! When it was time for shavasana I thought "already?!" It went by so mush faster than I anticipated; so relaxing. I usually do your vinyasa flows but I am starting to enjoy yin more and more. I am so grateful for your videos, thank you Kassandra

[@GiI11]

I loved this class. The first asana was quite difficult but I'm glad I finally got to put my new blocks to good use. I'm also very grateful for these classes -- I've had somewhat of an upper back injury on the side of my writing hand from too much writing and doing yoga has gone a long way towards relieving my pain.

[@hannahstorm510]

Thank you so much for this video. I am generally a Baptiste yogi, into the vinyasas and strength but I’m finding that I need more yin in my life. This was my first time doing yin since my yoga studio stopped in person classes back in March, but I am so glad I found this video. It was just what I needed for stress relief! Thank you 🙏

[@minweilee3446]

Love these slow sinking poses.

[@sanciadavidson8263]

As always, thank you Kassadra.
