Description

Yin is often misunderstood as gentle, passive, or “just stretching.”
 But what if the real strength of a practice isn’t how much effort it demands — but how much staying power it cultivates?

In this episode, Chris explores why Yin and Myofascial Release are anything but the soft option. Drawing on lived studio experience, fascia science, and the often-overlooked bridge between movement and meditation, he reframes strength as tolerance, endurance, and nervous system capacity rather than force or intensity.

This is an episode for anyone who:

• Feels unsure about letting go of stronger, more dynamic practices
• Worries that Yin might mean losing strength or support
• Has benefited from practices like Aerial yoga and wonders where that strength now lives
• Has been quietly waiting for Yin that goes deeper than stretching

You’ll hear why Yin trains the body to stay rather than strive, how this endurance transfers directly into meditation, and why quiet practices often build the most sustainable kind of strength.

If you’ve ever thought Yin was “too soft,” this conversation may change the way you listen to your body — and what you mean by strength.
