Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Ubud Yoga Ashram, Bali

Genuine self-discovery frequently begins with being still which is precisely what Yin Yoga training provides. Our Yin Yoga course in Ubud is aimed to enable body exploration at its deeper levels and greater awareness of the spiritual nature of the practitioner. With excellent tutors you will learn all there is to know about Yin Yoga as a technique and method of self-discovery.

Yin Yoga is a meditative practice based on prolonged postures when the focus of the student is of the utmost importance. Beginners usually hold the poses for 45 seconds to 2 minutes while intermediates and advanced students can do it for up to 5 or even 6 minutes. Our Yin Yoga training course is set to show the students how to become professional Yin Yoga instructors.

The technique focuses on the stretching of connective tissues to improve blood circulation in the body – thus supplying oxygenated blood to the muscles and brain. In turn, this provides a permanent source of energy to the practitioner, better mental functioning, and the capacity to understand and realize oneself in the present moment. Asana, pranayama, and meditation are the main components of our Yin Yoga training course in Ubud, harmonising mental tension, calming the brain, and bringing the body and breath together, so that Yin Yoga can perform its healing activities while bringing back energy to the mind.
