This four day intensive is an opportunity to truly immerse yourself in Yin Yoga. The intensive will be run over 2 consecutive weekends.
There will be plenty of practice so you get to experience the physical, mental and energetic effects of the practice. In addition we will spend time breaking down each of the poses, going over alternatives, modifications and the different use of a variety of props to make the most out of each pose and making it accessible for different people, regardless of their experience, range of movement and limitations.
For teachers, there will be ideas on how the long holds can be useful for adding additional aspects of yoga, whether it is an opportunity for teaching or incorporating sound. There will also be ideas on how to make a yin practice a more rounded practice with ideas for relaxation and pranayama.
There will be time spent understanding what Yin Yoga really is, how it is different from other styles of yoga and how it works when it can sometimes feel as if we are not doing very much!
There will be theory sessions on meridians, meditation and anatomy with relation to Yin using poses and practice to reinforce these sessions. Part of this will be understanding how you can theme a session for yourself or others, whether physical or energetic.
