It is a deeply healing meditative practice that considerably increases the benefits of Yin Yoga alone through sound healing principles of resonance, entrainment, and intention.

Program
We live very active, stressful lives filled with stimuli. Our nervous systems are constantly tensed. According to Chinese Taoist philosophy, this active quality is called yang. Even yoga practices in the last few decades have become very yang. This is why Yin yoga has become a very necessary practice that is gaining more and more demand across the world. Too much yang activity in our lives causes an imbalance in our physical, emotional and mental bodies, and this is where Yin yoga comes in to bring about balance.
Certifications
The course/hours count as Continuing Education hours for Registered Yoga Teachers (RYT®).
About the training
This is a complete 100-hour Yin yoga teacher training that will prepare you and certify you to teach general Yin yoga classes and to understand and apply its philosophy skillfully. In addition, you will learn how to teach Yin Resonance®, a unique approach to Yin yoga where sound resonance is applied through the use of sound healing throughout the class.
Yin Yoga
Yin yoga combines teachings from Indian Hatha Yoga and Taoist Yin-Yang philosophy. It is an antidote to people's extremely active and yang daily lives. Wellbeing comes when the Yin and yang, the passive and the active, the calming and the stimulating, are balanced. This is why Yin yoga has become a very necessary practice that is gaining more and more demand across the world. Too much yang activity in one's life causes an imbalance in his or her physical, emotional, and mental body, and this is where Yin yoga comes in to bring about balance.

It is a deeply healing meditative practice that considerably increases the benefits of Yin yoga alone through the sound healing principles of resonance, entrainment, and intention.

Location
The training will take place in Paleochora, South Crete, Greece. Crete Island is the biggest and the southernmost island of Greece. Paleochora is Crete’s gateway to the Libyan Sea. It is one of the most beautiful towns in the prefecture of Chania with extremely good weather, where the summer lasts for over five months.
Here, you will feel at home through the kindness and friendliness of the people, and you will taste the delicious local cuisine while the beauty of the sea and scenery will literally sweep you away. The picturesque village is located on a small northern peninsula surrounded by two exquisite beaches with sand and pebbles. The distance between Chania and Paleochora is a 75-kilometer drive enriched with the wild beauty that the Cretan scenery has to offer.
Food
Food is not included at this venue as there is no restaurant on site. There is a fully equipped kitchen for every three rooms where trainees store and prepare their meals. The cost of food has been removed from the final price of this training, so each participant determines their diet and budget.
Some dietary recommendations will be given to ensure ease in regard to esoteric yogic practices. Every second day a group trip to the village is provided during the afternoon break, where trainees pick up groceries or grab an early dinner in one of the many taverns on the beach.
