Learn to Let Go

This slow, meditative yin-yoga practice is designed to mindfully stress your body’s connective tissues as you breathe into the ever-changing sensations that arise in long-held poses.

What to Expect

You’ll be guided through a series of passive postures, mostly done on the floor. Poses are held for up to several minutes, allowing fascia and joints to gradually compress or release. This class is suitable for all experience levels; you’ll learn to utilize your breath and observe your natural tendencies when faced with discomfort.

Why it Works

Physically, long-held yoga poses mobilize and lubricate the joints and can help make these tissues more flexible. Mentally, these poses challenge you to meet arising resistance with mindfulness and self-compassion, teaching you to find the middle ground between craving and aversion.

ROOT Fundamentals is a signature yoga class of LifePower Yoga at Life Time Frontenac. ROOT's intention - providing a welcoming entry point to LifePower Yoga. It is designed for students new to yoga, students dealing with physical limitations or injuries, and experienced students who are looking to slow their practice down.

Covid-19 precautions:

Life Time Frontenac re-opens with protections outlined by St. Louis County guidelines on June 15, 2020. You will need to reserve your mat on the app and no longer need to check in at the front desk, the app will automatically do that now. You will have a touch-free temperature taken upon entry to the club and anyone over 100.4 will not be able to stay that day. The yoga studio door will be propped open 15 minutes before the start of class.  Mats are out in all the spots with the rooms at 25% capacity for now. This means 16 mats in the larger room and 12 in the smaller. You will use a Life Time mat or lay yours on top of the mat in the numbered space you've been assigned at registration. Doors close at 12:15 precisely and no students are allowed in after. At five minutes prior to class starting anyone who registered and doesn't show up forfeits his/her/their spot to the waitlist. No props, no hands-on assists. We are keeping everyone 6+ feet apart. Thank you for your patience during this time.
