This training will introduce you to the basics of Somatics as well as Yin Yoga and how they work together to create a safe, gentle and mindful practice.
Somatic movements focus on neuromuscular re-education, which helps release chronically tense and over-used muscles.
Yin style postures focus on the connective tissues and is a slower more meditative Yoga practice.
There will also be a day devoted to Restorative Yoga to understand and experience this style more deeply.
In these hours, you will explore:
* The history and principles of Yin Yoga
* Common yin poses and the somatic movements which compliment them
* The benefits of Somatics and Yin Yoga
* Sequencing classes
* Yin anatomy
* The differences and similarities between Yin and Restorative
* How to make common Yin poses Restorative
* Practice teaching
