Yin Yoga - The fundamental characteristic of Yin Yoga is holding poses for several minutes. This moderate stress is not only going to stretch the muscle belly, but the connective tissue as well. If you are persistent with this practice the body will respond by lengthening and strengthening resulting in stonger more stable joints and great flexbility.
