Part One Only : Yin Yoga Functional Anatomy & Fundamentals
This course will give you the fundamentals and foundations needed to teach Yin Yoga safely and authentic to you, from a space of tradition and purpose and can be completed on its own or as the first half of the complete 100hrs certification.
Starting with the fundamentals of Yin Yoga and then diving into the functional anatomy of the body will give you an intelligent understanding of how you can adapt the practice for different body types. You will explore the bio-individuality of your body and its uniqueness upon everyone and how that changes asana. Yin Yoga is not how we look, it is how we feel. By learning the art of propping, you will gain a confident and solid foundation in how to teach based on individual and functional alignment, rather than generic alignment. You will be able to transfer all of what you learn to other styles of Yoga to enable optimal functioning of body movement through your physical asana practice.
Including asana practice, meditation, theory lectures, art of teaching, art of propping and asana lab, this course serves those who wish to travel deeper into the Yin Yoga practice and share this practice in a safe and confident way.
