YIN YOGA TT LEVEL 1 MAY 26 2019

YA Yin Yoga Teacher Training with Dhugal Meachem  ::  Level 1   ::   May 26-7 June, 2019

                      

 

 

 

Do you love yoga and want to learn one of the yoga world's most popular styles? Have you done a teacher training already and want to add Yin?  Do you want to just do more Yin?

This 100hr Yoga Alliance accredited Yin Yoga Training Foundation is specifically designed to:
• Engage you on the compelling Yin Yoga style of yoga practice
• Give you basic anatomical/theoretical knowledge you need to lead excellent Yin classes
• Establishing Your Yin Teaching Voice
• Educate and enchant you on why Yin Yoga is so good for the modern body and mind.

This training will give you the most essential skills necessary to step into a classroom upon graduation and confidently teach Yin Yoga. Applying long-held non-muscular torque on our bodies, Yin stimulates & strengthens our skeletal, connective, fascial and ligament tissues, mobilizes our joints and regulates and soothes our nervous system. 

This Yin Yoga foundation course, open to all, is a 10-day full-time training program.  You will have 2 days at the weekend to enjoy the island and rest.     

"In quiet lies power. And out of quietude rises strength." (Confucius)

Dhugal will lead and support the entire group through the challenge of becoming confident in your own potential, while embodying the knowledge that is most important and having practical experience with the essential skills. 

• You really want to be a teacher: Great! In this training, you will learn everything you need to teach your first Yin class by the time you finish.
• You just love yoga and want to go deeper. Right On! You're covered here too. With the combined training, reading and discussion and interactive opportunities to learn, you'll be amazed at the depth of the yoga tradition.
• You want to add teaching yoga to your personal training/fitness background. Fantastic! You already teach pilates or cross fit and you want to offer more to your clients.

Everything you learn in this course will add huge value to other modalities you already offer to enrich the suite of skills to boost your business and clientele
