200 hour Yin Yoga & Anatomy Teacher Training Course

This training is suitable for experienced and aspiring yoga teachers and students alike who wish to enhance their knowledge of yin yoga – the quiet practice – and discover the anatomical and energetic theories of yin yoga for their own personal practice and/or with the intention to teach.

Welcome to

Yin Yoga & Anatomy – the quiet practice

"In the quietude lies the power and out of the quietude arises the power." (Confucius)

Yin yoga – the quiet practice – turns our attention inwards, to connect to the true essence of ourselves.

We practise yin yoga meditatively, using long-held poses without muscle tension, which strengthen and flex our connective, fascial and ligament tissues, mobilise our joints, and stimulate and soothe the nervous system. As a result, the exercises we do have a stress-reducing and regenerative effect.

We learn how to accumulate the subtle energy flow (chi flow) and to feel the enhanced energy flow in our meridians after completing a yoga practice. This practice nourishes us from our core, with a blend of awareness, calmness and relaxation.

In the fast-paced world of the 21st century, yin yoga offers the perfect balance for teachers and students alike.

Yin and Yang

"The noble man strives for harmony and not equality. The little man strives for equality and not for harmony." (Confucius)

Our world is comprised of yin and yang. We find polarity in our language, in our environment, in everything and everyone. This polarity and contrast blend seamlessly, as epitomised by the yin and yang symbol.

In the West, we practise mainly yang forms of yoga (Ashtanga, Bikram, Vinyasa Flow, etc.) muscle strengthening and muscle tension through rhythmic, flowing and repetitive movements, and this complements our fast-moving mentality and learned values.

Yang needs yin in order to exist, and yin needs yang in order to exist. When both sides are aligned, balance and harmony are achieved.

Yin yoga complements every form of yang yoga. While we cannot say that one is better or worse than the other, we can say that both belong together intrinsically, creating harmony between body, mind and soul.

This 200hr teacher training shares ancient yogic knowledge combined with the most recent scientific research. The focus of this course is to offer yoga students and teachers the theory and practice to experience the profound physical, mental, emotional and energetic benefits of Yin Yoga. Your journey will begin on the physical level with daily asana practice, learning the 20+ basic poses, the world of fascia, yoga anatomy, understanding skeletal variation and individual alignment – essential to effectively and safely teach and practice both Yin and Yang asanas (modules I & II). This comprehensive asana and anatomy course, together with our simple and highly effective analysing system will give you all the skills necessary to be a highly qualified, professional and confident yoga instructor for teaching both yin and yang style yoga classes.

In modules III & IV, we shift focus towards energy, pranayama practices and meditation. You will not only gain theoretical knowledge of chakra and meridian work, but our goal is to teach you how to feel and direct the subtle sensations of chi flow so you can teach others from a place of experience. On being able to refine your practice, your knowledge will go beyond the theory and your teaching will come from a place of authenticity.

As we complete our time together, we enter the world of yoga philosophy. You will encounter the depth of yoga practice and the goal of yoga – the journey inwards, a deeply personal, energetic and emotional journey towards our true essence. The most effective way to learn is with joy and trust, and therefore it is important to us to create an atmosphere of lightness, fun and community. However, there are also times of deep intense studying while creating a nurturing and safe environment to allow you to fully experience the intense mental, emotional and physical affects of this profound practice.

The anatomy lectures were so wonderful funny and fascinating! One can’t get enough of them. Yin Yoga module III took us on a journey deep into our minds (not always funny, but ever more fascinating). However, with the support of all the caring, wonderful students surrounding me, it was a very enriching experience. With the Yin Yoga practice we were taken on a journey of discovery of the body and mind….enthrallment, resistance, love, sorrow, anger, confidence, peace etc – all words that come to my mind. It was worth every moment! Then somewhere towards the end, I felt a wonderful sense of calm - an unbelievable feeling of peace from within that one endeavours to pass on…
