A foundational education in best practices for teaching Yin Yoga with a focus on trauma-informed and agency-building methods. Yin Yoga is the practice of gently holding shapes in relative stillness to stimulate the fascial tissues of the body. Physically, this practice can reduce tension and improve tissue functionality. Internally, the contemplative nature of Yin Yoga can strengthen resilience and the mind-body connection. This course is perfect for current Yoga teachers or practitioners looking to deepen their knowledge. Attendees will leave knowing how to teach a safe and nurturing Yin Yoga class.
Training instruction will include:
History of Yin Yoga and the philosophies associated with the practice, including Traditional Chinese Medicine
Clarifying Yin Yoga principles and intentions
Exploring alignment, including shape variations for a range of bodies
Trauma-informed practices, including adaptations and special considerations for trauma survivors, and an overview of trauma theory in the context of Yin Yoga
An overview of anatomy concepts
Variations on resonance (time between shapes): movement vs. stillness
Meditation, including relation to the koshas and practical techniques for a range of meditation experience
Participants will receive a certificate and 20 hours of Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Units. We will suggest some recommended reading and resources, but no purchases are required.
