Welcome to your Yin Immersion Teacher Training!
The My Health Yoga Yin Yoga Teacher Training Course Experience
We have created a thorough course that will enable you to unleash the Yin aspect of Yoga.
As Yoga has become more and more popular in the West, Yang yoga has become by far the most dominant form of practice. Whilst Yang Yoga is powerful, healing and important, we strongly feel that Yin Yoga is equally crucial in order to achieve a truly balanced and homeostatic way of life. Universally, Yang cannot exist without Yin and vice versa. Our bodies both physical and energetic, obey this Universal law. Sacred balance is physically and metaphysically achieved through the regular practice of Yang and Yin Yoga in similar proportions.
Our course aims to give teachers and students alike the ability to unleash the Yin side of the cosmic balance to bring about a complete form of Yoga and wellbeing in our lives. After enrolling, you will receive access to two modules online to complete in your own time. With the remaining four modules completed in-person during the retreat to ensure all attendees experience a balance of learning and time for introspection, practice and retreat.
Pre-requisite: Level 1 Yoga Teacher Training (in person or online) with My Health Yoga or another accredited yoga school. You may join the course for personal development and receive a Certificate of Participation which can later be used to add to another yoga qualification or as credit points.
This course will give you the tools to live as the eternal witness dwelling in love, joy and peace. This energy is both healing for yourself and provides the tools for you to facilitate healing and transformation for others so that we may live in service to God/Goddess/Brahman.

Modules 2 and 3 will be released online with enrollment and are to be completed online at your own pace. Based on feedback from previous years, students have felt covering all 6 modules over a weekend was too theory heavy so we have reduced the workshops and included more free time and classes to balance the yang workload.
