Yin Yoga Helps You Settle In…
Developing a Yin Yoga practice offers a rare opportunity to slow down, settle in and attune to your innate quietude. Yin Yoga blends the wisdom traditions of Hatha Yoga and Taoism, providing an enriching pathway to understand health and wellness from the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Yin methodology invites you to passively hold a shape (with support) and place safe, but deliberate tension on a targeted area, for a sustained period of time. This action stretches the deeper connective tissues of the body improving joint mobility and overall flexibility. In addition, the active stretch creates a tensile pull on the meridian channels to move chi (energy) more efficiently through the subtle body anatomy. As a result, the organ systems of the body are nourished on the physical and energetic levels, producing mental calm and a receptive heart.
IN OUR YIN YOGA TRAINING YOU CAN EXPECT TO:
Practice the primary Yin poses to experience the healing benefits of the practice.
Develop mindful awareness and use breathing techniques to deepen your experience.
Study the anatomy of the lower body including a deep dive into fascia, connective tissue and joint health.
Explore TCM Meridian Theory and the benefits of restoring chi balance to the body’s organ systems through the Yin shapes.
Learn teaching methodology to sequence an intelligent Yin (and Yin/Yang) yoga class.
Understand how to safely prop your students for long holds.
Apply all of the principles named above to practice-teach Yin Yoga in training.
