This weekend is open to EVERYONE! Current and/or aspiring yoga teachers, as well as enthusiastic students who wish to spend the weekend immersed in all things Yin.

We will explore the many postures of yin yoga, the physical, mental and energetic benefits of this style of practice, and the anatomy necessary to understand how different bodies create different shapes.

You'll gain a new perspective and better understanding of how to make ALL asana feel better and work better for YOUR body; and how to guide your students safely through the practice.

We'll also dive into the science of the body and address many movement myths and debunk traditional ideas of how we should look while doing asana.

This in-person course qualifies for 15 hours of CE credit with Yoga Alliance for registered yoga teachers.

Curriculum includes:
The history and philosophy of yin
The main poses of yin yoga
The Functional Approach to Yoga
Skeletal variation and how it affects the shape of the pose
Understanding connective tissue and fascia
Target areas of the pose
Chinese Meridian theory and Yin/Yang basics as they relate to yin yoga
How to build a class (sequencing, timing, music, props, intention)
AND MUCH MORE!
