Module One: Introduction to Yin Theory, Practice & Teaching
Course Overview: Yin Yoga is a passive and quiet practice, which gently stretches the connective tissue of hips, thighs, pelvis, and lower spine. Different from Yang practices, Yin Yoga places emphasis on relaxing the muscles and holding the postures for longer periods of time to encourage the response of fibrous and tough structures such as the connective tissues. The benefits of this practice include the promotion of deep relaxation, improvement of flexibility and serve as a complement to yang forms of exercise. In addition to that, a Yin class environment prepares the body and encourages the cultivation of a still and meditative state of mind. “It is not muscular strength that gives us the feeling of ease and lightness in the body, it is the flexibility of the joints, of the connective tissue” – Grilley (2002). In this course, you will develop a thorough understanding of basic concepts and benefits of Yin Yoga, characteristics of Yin & Yang nature, value of a passive practice, a fundamental review of concepts such as elasticity, plasticity, tension, and compression. Through the practice and analysis of different yin yoga sequences, which target different areas of the body, the course will provide an understanding of the different yin postures and enable you to design different sequencing structures.
