Challenge Overview

Yin Yoga to Wind You Down is an ideal way to cultivate quiet and calm at the end of the day. 

Sign up for this five-day experience, and each day you'll get a new 20-minute yin class delivered via email. Throughout this program, you'll be invited to cultivate a feeling of receptivity as you target commonly tight areas of the body (such as the shoulders, quads, and hips) for deep release. 

Enjoy these practices and let your stress melt away.


Corina Benner

Corina Benner, Director of Wake Up Yoga, wholeheartedly believes that the ancient practice of yoga perfectly complements our modern pursuit of vibrant health, personal fulfillment, harmonious relationships and spiritual enrichment.

Viewing asana practice as an entry-point to self-study, Corina weaves the tenets of yoga philosophy into her teaching, inspiring students to discover how this age-old practice remains relevant today in their own lives both on and off the mat. Her positive vibrations and contagious optimism empower students of all levels to practice with enthusiasm, while her detailed instruction, poetic language and intelligent sequencing create a safe space for students to explore the landscapes of their body, mind, heart and soul.

Section 1
  • This yin yoga class is designed to help you soften and release physical tension. You'll practice heart bench, dragonfly, sleeping swan pose, and you'll conclude in savasana. Explore sensation and let your breath anchor you in the present.
Section 2
  • This yin yoga class is designed to help you let go and uncover your yin (mysterious, lunar, receptive) nature. You'll practice caterpillar pose, sleeping owl, a supported inversion, a gentle supine twist, and you'll conclude in savasana. Allow yourself to be guided by what you feel and how you feel it.
Section 3
  • This yin yoga sequence is designed to help you release tension in your quads and hips and to help you cultivate a feeling of gratitude. You'll practice two poses before resting in savasana: sleeping dragon and a gentle supine twist. Let go of any unnecessary effort and allow yourself to be just as you are on your mat.
Section 4
  • This yin yoga sequence is designed to help you calm your mind and open through your shoulders and the sides of your body. You'll practice nadi shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), praying mantis pose, child's pose, and head to knee pose variations before concluding in savasana. Feel into the mood of your body as you release into the poses.
Section 5
  • This yin yoga sequence is designed to awaken feelings of sweetness, softness, and openness. You'll practice shoelace pose, supported bridge variations, and a gentle supine twist before lying back in savasana. Breathe deeply and melt into presence.
