Description
list the major aspects of your Retreat you would like to bring forward (make it concise)
Yin Yoga waves all layers of our being -body, energy and mind- into a seamless whole, allowing a sublime experience of stillness and peace.The stillness of the long-held static stretches with relaxed muscles in Yin Yoga allows the space for awareness and the opportunity to reveal and release deep layers of tension held within your fascia.The healing wisdom of the Taoist philosophy and the Meridians provides insight and guidance.We are exploring the concept of surrender and release while we are opening up to guidance from beyond.
Making our way through layer upon layer of habitual holding patterns of emotional history deep inside our tissues, muscles, and cells. Releasing emotional tension, freeing stagnant or blocked energy.We take the time out to listen to our body closely, to understand the transformative possibilities of being present with sensation means to experience mindfulness principles on a physical level.To let the body guide the mind to the ultimate experience of peace. To cultivate a loving-kindness attitude to ourselves, and from this place of abundance offering it to the world.There is so much more to Yin Yoga than only the physical stretching and rejuvenation. Allow Yin Yoga to be an art, a philosophy and a way of living.
In this Yin Yoga teacher training, you get a unique opportunity to learn to release physical and emotional tension, free stagnant or blocked energy and to cultivate a peaceful quality of mind.By practicing Yin we are practicing acceptance and surrender, connecting our body to a Zen state of mind and we create the space to allow energetic and physical healing to take place.For an embodied experience of the theory behind the practice, students will have the opportunity to teach from the second week onwards and the student will leave this training feeling confident to lead a yin yoga therapy class.If you’re up for exploring some more of this with us this is your course.
Our Philosophy:
The ethos of the Body-Mind-Soul Centre is to apply the teachings and practices of the yoga tradition to go on an exploration to investigate the relationship of our body, mind, and soul. Ultimately to gain clarity, to understand our nature, to create harmony between us and others and to experience freedom and joy.In a Taoist / Zen way, we emphasize the value of breath, meditation, and intuition rather than ritual worship or rigorous following of old scriptures and perfect alignments. Everybody is different, so it matters how a pose feels much more than how it is supposed to look.
We see teaching yoga as an art fuelled by authenticity and creativity. A student's personal practice and the understanding that follows spark the inner teacher and sharing with others will come naturally and spontaneously.We acknowledge and emphasize that every student and teacher has his or her own unique presence, energy, and teaching style. The Body-Mind-Soul Centre provides an ideal environment for learning and a practice process, where yoga teacher training courses are presented and practiced in depth.
Certification:
With successful completion of the training, students will receive a Yoga Alliance-affiliated 100-hrs certificate from The Body-Mind-Soul Centre (RYS 300 – registered school with Yoga Alliance) which can be accredited to the 300-hrs Yoga Alliance certification program (or alternatively can count as Yoga Alliance continuing education credits).
Additionally, students will receive a 100-hrs Yin Yoga Therapy™ practitioner diploma which is a building block for our 700 hours of Yin Yoga Therapy™ education as a component of Alexandra Denkinger M.D.(ACU) physical therapy practice, licensed and registered as Doctor of Medicine in Acupuncture M.D.(ACU) by the Indian Board of Alternative Medicine, affiliated with Yoga Alliance as a registered yoga teacher (E-RYT 500) and owner of The Body-Mind-Soul Centre (RYS 300).
