Facilities

When you awaken and align your body’s underlying energy, you activate your innate process of healing and transformation. Yin Yoga will help you create profound shifts in your physical and emotional well-being through the subtle body. We will demystify how energy affects everything you do and feel—and show you how to work with your body and mind.

Energy work isn’t as esoteric as you may think. You will learn simple principles, tools, and practices that balance your subtle body—which is how physical, emotional and spiritual healing begins—so you can build vitality, unravel energetic blockages, and boost your immunity. By the end of this course, you will feel stronger, healthier, and better able to thrive and flow in the life you are meant to live.

The philosophical and energetic aspects of Yin Yoga can be a gateway to deep healing and offer resources of inspiration for your practice and your teaching.

Yin Yoga is simple, but not easy. Sometimes being still is the hardest of all asana. The stillness of the floor-based, long held static stretches (with relaxed muscles) create the space to practice mindfulness and cultivate awareness.

We embrace our own physical limitations rather than trying to fight against them and work with the body just as it is, and that in and of itself is an amazing thing. We are practicing acceptance, surrendering to gravity, connecting our body to a Zen state of mind.

While we are expanding our flexibility and rejuvenate our joints, we reveal and release deep layers of tension held within your fascia. The therapeutic healing wisdom of the Daoist philosophy provides insight and guidance to get in touch with our body, mind, and soul. We get the unique opportunity to release emotional tension, free stagnant or blocked energy, and to cultivate a peaceful quality of mind.

The teachings include the foundations and principles of Yin, the physical benefits of the practice, the meditative and therapeutic energetic effects from a Daoist / Oriental Medicine perspective.
