15 Days 80 Hour Certified Yoga Teacher Training
Yin Yoga is the ideal complement to our Yang orientated life and helps us to get back in balance.
In Yin Yoga we hold gentle poses for a longer period of time to work also on our joints, bones, ligaments and fascias unlike Yang Yoga where the focus is just on muscles.
Due to the long duration of holding the poses, we also go deep not only on a physical, but also on a mental level and can therefore do lots of introspection and inner study through the Yin Yoga practice.
Yin Yoga is connected to the Chinese Energy system of meridians. In Yin Yoga we work in different meridians and organs to balance the energy flow and release emotional blockages.
We purposely put this Course in the time of Christmas and New Year, so that you can combine the change of the year with lots of inner work with Your Self.
The Last 4 days we will explore some more of Kerala and get some Holiday feeling while staying in beautiful Resorts in the Backwaters and at the beach.
In this course you will learn:
- Yin and Yang Theory
- Yin Yoga Theory
- Chinese Meridian and Organ Theory with relation to emotions and physical diseases
- Yin Yoga poses, names, cuing, adjustments
- Yin Yoga and props
- Teaching Methodology of Yin Yoga
This course is for:
- Yoga teachers who want to get educated in teaching Yin Yoga
- students interested in Yin Yoga
- For Yoga Alliance registered Yoga teachers who want to get certified Continuing Education Hours
- for everyone longing for a relaxing Yoga Retreat in India during Christmas and New Year with Focus on Yin Yoga
Course Venue
Our Yoga Camp in Kerala is situated among tea and spice plantations in the Western ghats near a village called Suryanelli. It is a very remote place, away from the mainstream tourist places and just perfect for a relaxing Yoga stay.
Surrounded by hills and near a lake, this place has many attractions and activities near by.
