50 hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training

In this 50 hour yin training, we focus on the fascial system, yin practice and the somatic practice of releasing emotions & trauma.

Course Summary

You don't have to be a Yoga Teacher to take this training. You can take this course to deepen your own meditation practice, use it for 50 YACEP hours, or take it as a part of my 300-hour build-your-own teacher training.  In this 50 hour yin training, you are invited to learn the techniques of yin yoga in a way that will allow you to share this practice with others. First and foremost is the experiential practice and relationship to your body. When you can identify shifts and embody understanding in your physical body first, then you are better able to facilitate the same in your students.  The curriculum is based on many aspects of teaching yin yoga including theory, the nature of yin and yang, the three tattvas of practicing yin, practicing and teaching with attention and intention, and the psychological, energetic and physiological benefits of the practice, the ability to reduce one's attachment to alignment and the acknowledgement of individual body shapes and sizes, mindfulness, a breakdown of the various postures and so much more.

Yoga Teacher

Firstly, I wanted to thank you. This course has been such a profound blessing and I deeply cherish your wisdom. You hold space so beautifully and present many offerings for different paths of growth. Initially I decided to take this course merely to broaden my knowledge of Yin, but through it I have found awareness for parts of my consciousness and body that I have never given much thought to in the past. Coming out of this I have an even deeper desire than before (which I didn’t know was possible!) to learn more and more about this ancient practice of yoga. I almost feel as if I know less now than before. This course has ignited my passion for yoga even brighter, and I feel increasingly excited each day for my journey to India to study.
