50hr Yin Yoga Teacher Training

Yin yoga is a practice of patience and stillness which offers us the opportunity to work deeply into the connective tissues and energy lines of the body while bringing awareness to the fluctuations of the mind. By holding the postures for long periods of time, we experience the effects of slow and mindful movement. These long holds give us a chance to slow down and listen to our body’s own natural intelligence.

Yin Yoga is rooted in the ancient systems of Hatha Yoga and merged with the Traditional Chinese Medicine system of Meridian lines, this synergy allows the practitioner to draw upon the healing properties of both a physical and an energetic practice.

In this training you will gain a comprehensive and well-rounded understanding of the energetic body and its pathways, and how these energy lines influence our tissues, organs, mental and emotional states. To support the transformational qualities of the Yin practice we will focus on Meditation techniques, Pranayama, and Yoga Nidra, as well as skillful sequencing, alignment and modifications to suit different body types and injuries. You will have the simple techniques and effective tools to build on your teaching and practice.
