Registration is closed, but please check other Detroit Yoga Lab Events
In this hands-on training you will learn to analyze, observe, practice and teach the Yin Yoga Postures in depth. We will dive into the delicate art of deciphering functional vs. aesthetic alignment through analysis of bone images showing common variations. More importantly, we will study each other and throughout our time together, learn how to provide support, modifications, alternatives in yin yoga classes.
Further, we will study anatomy of muscle/fascial lines and corresponding pathways of subtle energy according to the tradition and discuss the multi-layered electrical and emotional responses stimulated by this deeply surrendering practice. This course culminates in a truer understanding and better appreciation for the endless variety of human bodies and how to use yin yoga to support overall physical and energetic wellbeing.
