Yin Yoga uses floor-based postures held for prolonged periods of time to nourish the fascial tissues and stimulate the deeper energetic channels in the body.

Over the first 4 days of this training, Jennifer will guide you from the physical body to the subtle bodies, using the Koshas as a tool to aid in your journey of self-discovery. Each day will consist of a deep Yin practice based on 1 of the 5 Koshas, followed with pranayama and meditation. At the end of each day, we’ll dive deeper into the theory and practical work of the Yin practice. The last 2 days will have a similar daily schedule but will explore the facial lines and the Meridians.

Jennifer’s lectures on the anatomical body will give a structured foundation in which students will feel confident in sequencing safe and effective Yin practices for themselves and others. Once the foundation is built then the deeper layers of the practice can be taught through work on the subtle bodies which will be investigated through breathwork and meditation.

In this training you will learn:

· Physical aspects of Yin: Anatomy and Physiology, Sequencing, Props and Injury Management, Fascia Lines

· Energetic aspects of Yin: Koshas, Chi and Prana, Meridians, Nadis, Vayus

· Mental aspects of Yin: Pranayama, Chanting and Meditation

Required Book for the course: ‘Insight Yoga’ by Sarah Powers

Testimonial
Science was never my strong suit in school. To become a yoga teacher, one at some point in time will need to study Anatomy. So when this subject came around in my first 200 hour TT I was quite anxious. In walked Jennifer Elliott with Mr. Bones (scale replica of the human skeletal system), Anatomy Workbook, Laptop, folding chair, and Atlas of Anatomy! In short order my fear diminished and my perspective began to change quickly. Jennifer displayed a passion and command of Anatomy that was nothing short of inspirational. She took the class through not easy subjects of planes of movement, spine and core stability, shoulder and hip joints etc with fluid expertise. What looked to be 16 hours of very dry challenging material actually awakened a sincere interest in anatomy. I have studied with Jennifer twice after my initial 200 hour TT. Jennifer’s instruction has made me a better Yoga student and put me on firm footing to become a good Yoga teacher one day. Every student I know who has studied with Jennifer feels the same way.
