I have noticed a few members confusing Yin yoga with Restorative. Restorative yoga is the type that is good to do before bed, anti-anxiety, helps with relaxation, increases Yin energy, no discomfort.

Yin yoga works on the connective tissue (fascia), ligaments, joints. Long holds with mild to moderate discomfort.

Iyengar yoga falls under the category of Hatha.

Sun Salutations are Vinyasa.

Yin, long holds. The other types have hatha within them, but additional features. Vinyasa flows often go through multiple variations of stretches that lead to a deeper stretch.

It links breath with movement, so it classifies as Vinyasa, but I will add it so you can select it The 5 Tibetan Rites were actually my introduction to yoga, the first I ever did years ago.
