Yin is simple to teach, tricky to plan
A Yin class is only a handful of shapes — but the timing, the target areas, and the rebounds matter enormously. Eyeballing three-to-five-minute holds across a class is hard.
- •Long holds are easy to mis-time across a 60-minute class.
- •Hard to balance target areas (hips, spine, shoulders).
- •Forgetting rebounds and counter-poses between deep shapes.
- •No clean place to note prop setups for each pose.

How do I plan a Yin yoga class?
To plan a Yin class, choose a target area or theme, select five to seven shapes that stress connective tissue, hold each for three to five minutes, add gentle rebounds and counter-poses between deep holds, and close with an extended rest. A Yin yoga sequence builder like FLOW lets you set long holds, sequence by target area, and total the class time precisely.
What is a Yin yoga sequence builder?
A Yin yoga sequence builder is a planning tool for slow, long-hold classes. FLOW lets teachers set multi-minute holds, sequence by target area, add counter-poses and prop notes, and export or share the finished Yin or Restorative class.
How long are holds in a Yin yoga sequence?
Yin holds typically last three to five minutes, sometimes longer for experienced students. In FLOW you set the hold time per pose and the app totals the class length, so you can plan a balanced 60 or 75-minute Yin class without overrunning.
A calm planner for Yin and Restorative
If you want a Yin yoga sequence builder that handles long holds, target-area sequencing, and counter-poses — rather than a fast-flow tool — FLOW gives you a quiet, visual planner on iPhone, iPad, and the web. See our honest comparison pages.
