Restorative yoga is a restful yoga practice that is all about slowing down and opening your body through passive stretching. During a restorative yoga class, you will utilize many props (blankets, bolsters, straps, wall, etc) to create a very relaxing expression of the pose.  You will hold these passive poses for an extended period of time, therefore, you may do just a few postures over the course of the 45 minutes.

Restorative yoga is a completely different experience than most other styles of yoga.
