Yin Yoga Immersion Weekend

Description

Dive deeper into understanding the Yin Yoga system in this 14-hour Yin Yoga immersion weekend course. You will learn which tissues are being targeted, the physiological benefits of practicing in a yin fashion, and the subtle effects that contribute to the all-over good feeling the practice creates.

We will investigate Yin Yoga poses, learning individual-specific alignment as well as the energy channels being stimulated, the chakras corresponding to those channels, and the emotional balancing that may result. Upon completing the course, you will be able to teach safe, and effective Yin Yoga classes and answer your students’ questions with confidence and clarity.

This training is appropriate for students and teachers of all traditions who want to learn more about Yin Yoga.
