Yin Yoga Teacher Training: Foundations of Yin YogaExplore and experience the foundations of Yin Yoga in this four-day teacher training at Mind Body Hum. Yin Yoga is a meditative and centering yoga practice that is often described as the other half of exercise. It is a complementary practice to more active styles of yoga, supporting maintenance of mobility, healing, and an opportunity to explore mindfulness and the more subtle aspects of a yoga practice. Yin Yoga is both ancient and modern, designed to enliven the tissues, soften and steady the heart, and enhance and balance our energetic system.
This Yin Yoga Teacher Training offers a blend of Yin Yoga classes, meditations, lectures, and hands-on exploration.
Our training curriculum covers the following topics:
Classic Yin Poses (benefits, considerations & cautions, body types, modifications, variations, sequencing)
Benefits of Yin Yoga
Movements of the hips and spine
Skeletal variation
Fascia
Exploring sensation (tension, compression, opening, edges, discomfort, pain)
Weaving breath and meditation into a Yin class
Atmosphere of a Yin class – pace, vocabulary, voice, and music
Difference and importance of Yin and Yang types of activity
Difference between Yin and Restorative Yoga
Art of relaxation
This training is for yoga teachers, acupuncturists, massage therapists and anyone that practices Yin Yoga who wants to dive deeper into the philosophy and practice of Yin Yoga.
