About The Training
Once we have learned to cultivate body intelligence – understanding why and how to safely and effectively practice functional yin yoga - we can begin to explore the deeper, more subtle layers of our internal landscape.
In this Yoga Alliance accredited training we will study the meditative aspects of our yin yoga practice – including yin and yang styles of meditation, Mindfulness and creative visualization techniques - designed to enhance Qi flow, regulate the nervous system, train the mind and cultivate self-awareness.
Due to the sensitive nature of this inner work, we will learn how to practice and teach these techniques functionally, ensuring the techniques remain individualised, accessible and safe for all students.
Each day will include guided and unguided sitting practices, various inner methods creatively combined with yin yoga, theoretical lectures as well as group reflection exercises.
Graduates will leave with the knowledge and skill to support themselves - as well as their students - in exploring the practice of yoga, beyond asana.
_
NOTE: In this module we will not study yin yoga theory, functional anatomy or how to approach the physical asanas. This training is for those who have already undertaken a functional yin yoga training or have a regular practice and know how to practice yin yoga safely.
