Yin and Vinyasa Yoga by Sarah Powers

Powers’s two-hour session is divided into two, roughly equal sections. The first covers the yin practice, with a half-dozen passive stretches in Reclining Bound Angle (Supta Baddha Konasana), Saddle Pose (similar to reclining Hero), a wide-knee Child’s Pose, a cross-leg forward bend, a wide-leg forward bend, and a reclining bent-knee twist. Each symmetrical pose is held for five minutes, each asymmetrical pose for five minutes on each side. The vinyasaor what Grilley would call the yang practicefollows the yin practice, and consists mostly of a linked sequence of familiar standing poses.
