Yin Yoga uses long-held postures that support us in accessing the deeper, more yin parts of ourself. In this 5-day training, we explore how the ancient yogic practice of Yin Yoga can bring
balance to our physical, energetic, and emotional bodies.
Guided by Biff Mithoefer, author of The Yin Yoga Kit, we learn how to lead a Yin Yoga class and incorporate yin postures and philosophy into any yoga practice. We discover how to:
- Apply Taoist philosophy in our practice
- Practice nonstriving in our life and our teaching
- Follow the movement of prana in the body and discover how it can be affected by Yin Yoga
- Develop a deeper understanding of anatomy and our own natural anatomical patterns
- Sequence a Yin Yoga class
- Hold a safe, sacred space for practice
Yin Yoga Teacher Training, Part 1 is suitable for yoga teachers as well as experienced practitioners who wish to deepen their Yin Yoga practice.
