6 Day Yin Yoga Immersion for Teachers and Practitioners

Yin Yoga is medicine for the modern world. As we attempt to find balance in our fast-paced lives, the chance to sink into stillness, to connect to our centre and truly relax, is a potent practice. This immersive Yin Yoga course with Lies is an inspiring program that will empower you to teach and share the healing practice of Yin Yoga. The course is designed to provide a foundation for teaching Yin Yoga skillfully, with compassion and awareness. Benefits of Yin Yoga include increased mindfulness, releasing blockages, improved energy flow, deeper levels of release, connection to self, and improved physical and mental wellbeing.

Discover the deep healing power of Yin Yoga​

Yin Yoga is a highly mindful style of yoga practice where postures are practiced on the floor in a static way for an extended period of time. In this style, we position our body in a particular pose and then let go of the deeper muscular activity and surrender it to the floor for gravity to do the work. By doing so we relax our muscles and apply moderate stress to the deepest layers of connective tissues of the body -tendons, fascia, and ligaments- improving the health and mobility of joints. While in these poses we can begin to calm the mind and allow a deeper connection to Self, heart and mindfulness.​

Who is this course for?

• Yoga teachers who wish to offer yin yoga classes
• Experienced yoga instructors looking for ongoing training
