Yin Yoga Teacher Training Course (TTC) offers a deep dive into the meditative and therapeutic aspects of yoga. Unlike more dynamic styles, Yin Yoga targets the connective tissues—ligaments, joints, fascia—through long-held, passive poses. A typical Yin TTC is designed for yoga practitioners and teachers who want to expand their knowledge and teaching skills by incorporating a more mindful, still, and introspective practice.

Most Yin TTCs cover the foundational principles of Yin Yoga, the physical and energetic anatomy, the meridian theory (from Traditional Chinese Medicine), and how to sequence and teach classes safely and effectively. Emphasis is placed on understanding individual body structures, making modifications, and cultivating awareness through breath and meditation.

These trainings also often explore the philosophy behind Yin Yoga, such as Taoist principles of balance, surrender, and stillness. Whether you're aiming to teach or deepen your personal practice, a Yin Yoga TTC provides the tools to create a nurturing, introspective space for healing and transformation.

Trainings are available in various formats—intensive retreats, online courses, or weekend modules—and can vary in length, often between 50 to 100 hours. It’s an ideal complement for existing yoga teachers or anyone drawn to a slower, more contemplative path.
