Course Description

Yin Yoga utilizes long holds, deep stretches, and slow, thoughtful movements to stretch & release all the neuromuscular tension we tend to store in our muscles and connective tissues. In this class, we will work from head to toe to create space and balance in your practice by increasing flexibility and mobility. Elevate your ability to be mindful, stay present and feel gratitude every day in this slow, introspective practice. Yin is great for beginners, athletes, prenatal and post natal yogis, and yogis seeking a slower paced class to balance out their vinyasa practice.

This 10-hour training is ideal if you are a yoga teacher or student who wants to explore mindfulness-based Yin Yoga to add to your teaching repertoire or your personal experience of yoga. You will learn the theory behind Yin Yoga, study relevant points about asana and anatomy, and explore how to guide Yin as a supportive, safe, and deep inner exploration.

If you’ve enjoyed Yin Yoga, you know that it is a slow, peaceful approach that can help nourish body, mind and spirit. Yin Yoga provides insight and awareness as a meditative practice. There are both physiological and spiritual underpinnings to the practice, combining elements of classical Yoga, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Mindfulness Training.
