FAST 1359 - Yin Yang Yoga

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Description:

Yin Yang Yoga teaches basic postures and breathing exercises that derive from ancient India. Students are encouraged to enjoy the feelings of rejuvenation and steadiness that arise from Yin Yang Yoga practice. This style stretches and targets both the deep connective tissues between the muscles and the fascia throughout the body. The aim is to increase circulation in the joints and improve flexibility as the poses stretch and exercise the bone and joint areas. It also helps us to regulate the body's flow of energy. Slow down, move from noise to silence, from agitation to calm, and from complexity to simplicity. Engage the body's natural healing power as you actively nourish and harmonize the body's vital life force or chi as the whole body rests and opens with long held poses. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Demonstrate basic understanding of Yin Yang Yoga 2. Demonstrate a variety of movements to improve balance, strength, and coordination. 3. Demonstrate knowledge of the uses of Yin Yang Yoga.
