Gentle Yoga Practice
Gentle yoga practice uses props and moderate ranges for low-stress movement—ideal for deloads, return-to-play, and easy recovery days.
Gentle yoga practice slows pacing, widens prop use, and limits end-range loading—ideal for deload weeks, illness return, or seniors in sport. Chairs, walls, and bolsters keep joints supported while maintaining circulation.
Sessions of twenty to forty minutes aid recovery without yin's long connective-tissue stress. Distinct from restorative: more movement, less stillness.
Common questions
-
