About this Event

Yin Yoga. Approaching the Functional Teacher Training
with Sasy Cacace

Yin Yoga: Approaching the Functional” is a Yoga Teacher Training with Sasy Cacace designed to guide you into a practical, embodied, and intelligent exploration of structure, variation, and biomechanics.This training goes beyond Yin Yoga alone. It shows how functional principles apply to all Yoga practices, helping you move away from rigid shapes and toward skillful, adaptable teaching rooted in real bodies.

👉 This training is recognized by Yoga Alliance as a Continuing Education program (20 hours with YACEP teacher)


In “Yin Yoga: Approaching the Functional Teacher Training” you will learn:

🧠 Anatomy for All Yoga Practices ⚠️ This is not “Yin-only anatomy.”
The anatomy taught in Yin Yoga: Approaching the Functional is functional, experiential, and universal.
It applies to every form of Yoga — Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Restorative, Yin.

🔍 Anatomy through movement, load, and sensation, not memorization.
This means you’ll understand how bodies actually work in practice, regardless of pace, style, or pose name. You will learn how to set an intention for each pose by targeting a specific area and how to cultivate the attention to feel sensation to adapt the practice to your uniqueness and learn how to teach to feel it and not to look good at it. A practical, experiential anatomy you can immediately apply to any Yoga class. You will understand how to assess bodies with curiosity and safety

🌀 Explore
* The functional vs aesthetic approaches to movement and posture
* How to teach functionally, rather than by imitation and aesthetic

🦴 Understand
* Tension and compression, and the natural limits of range of motion
* How the body adapts under load and time
* The difference between flexibility and mobility

🧠 Examine
* The role of fascia in Yin and all Yoga practices
* Skeletal proportions, asymmetry, and individuality in movement

👐 Study
* The 14 skeletal segments and 10 muscle groups involved in the entire Yoga practice
* The 5 Archetypal Yin Yoga Poses and their variations, adaptable to every student
* What Yin Yoga truly is, beyond shapes and stillness
👉 This is what will give you knowledge of the Yin Approach

This training is for you if:
– you want to teach real humans, not idealized shapes
you are ready to question assumptions and deepen your understanding of Yoga
– you value integrity, embodiment, and discernment in your teaching
