Understand Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Varkala, India

What is Yin Yoga?

Yin Yoga is a very slow form of yoga that involves many pauses and that works with the contractive tendons of the body, joints, bones and fascias. In English, it is usually translated as a ‘gentler’ type of yoga – compared to ‘active’ or ‘muscular’ types such as Ashtanga or Vinyasa.

Our Yin Yoga Teacher Training is suitable for:

  • Yoga practitioners who want to explore the deeper, meditative aspects of yoga.
  • Yoga teachers looking to add Yin Yoga to their teaching repertoire.

Features of Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Varkala, India

1. Long-held Poses

  • Postures are held for an extended period, typically between 3 to 5 minutes (or even longer).
  • The extended holds allow the body to release tension in the deeper tissues gradually.

2. Targets Connective Tissues

  • Yin Yoga works on areas of the body that are less elastic, such as the fascia, ligaments, and joints.
  • Holding poses with minimal muscular effort allows these tissues to gently stretch and strengthen.

3. Focus on Stillness

  • Yin Yoga encourages stillness in both the body and the mind, promoting a meditative experience.
  • It often integrates mindfulness and deep breathing to foster relaxation and mental clarity.

4. Calming and Meditative

  • Yin Yoga is designed to balance the yang energy (active, dynamic movement) with stillness and introspection.
  • It enhances emotional release, reduces stress, and improves focus.

5. Suitable for All Levels

  • Yin Yoga is accessible to beginners and advanced practitioners alike.
  • It emphasizes finding your edge—a balance between comfort and challenge—rather than pushing too hard.
