DESCRIPTION

Yin Yoga will invite you into a  passive practice, allowing you to move deeper into the “yin”  tissues—ligaments, fascia networks, joints, and even bones. In contrast,  most forms of yoga asana are active and dynamic, working on the “yang”  tissues. Yin will be explored as the stable, unmoving, and hidden aspect  of things, while yang will be understood as the changing, moving, and  revealing aspect.

You will discover how Yin Yoga  exercises the pranic energy of the mind, creating space to pause,  breathe, and observe your thoughts without attachment. The long holds-  which are sometimes quite extended- will challenge you in a different  way than more dynamic classes, offering the opportunity to witness,  experience, and release.


Through this practice of  surrender and stillness, you will share in the same goal as traditional  asana: to become fully present to life.

In this training, you will learn how to sequence and facilitate a full-length Yin Yoga class, how to weave the many benefits of Yin Yoga into your own practice, and how to introduce Yin philosophy and postures into traditional yoga classes.
