Mindfulness & Yin Yoga
Teacher Training (200hr)

This training primarily focuses on the style of Yin Yoga, so you'll be learning Yin Yoga asanas.

AND you'll be learning about mindfulness, energetic anatomy, functional movement, and nervous system awareness so you can weave such philosophy skilfully into the space afforded during the longer held Yin Yoga postures.

You’ll learn how to guide slower, intentional and intelligently sequenced practices that support both physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

The training is less focused on advanced physical postures and more focused on embodiment, awareness, presence and teaching in a way that supports students to navigate life with more ease.

Absolutely.

Many students join the yoga teacher training primarily for personal growth, self-understanding and to deepen their own practice and relationship with yoga.

This training is intentionally designed to support both:

• personal immersion and transformation
• and those wishing to teach professionally

There is no pressure to become a yoga teacher after graduation.

Yes.

Upon successful completion of all course requirements, you will receive an internationally recognised 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certification aligned with Yoga Alliance standards.

This qualification allows you to begin teaching yoga internationally.

 This unique training blends Yin Yoga, Mindfulness, meditation, trauma-informed yoga, traditional yogic philosophy, and the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine to create a deeply integrative and embodied approach.

Rather than focusing only on poses or performance, the training invites you into self-inquiry, awareness, and nervous system sensitivity, helping you cultivate a deeper relationship with your body before guiding others.

You’ll learn not only the foundations of Yin Yoga, Chinese Medicine, and Mindfulness practices but also why the body responds the way it does physically, emotionally, and energetically, allowing you to teach and practice with greater depth and understanding.

The course is designed to simplify and integrate rather than overwhelm with information. Everything is taught in a practical and grounded way so you can apply the teachings to your own health, relationships, lifestyle, and teaching.

Nervous system regulation, self-care, embodiment, and after-care are woven throughout the entire training, supporting sustainable growth and helping you become a more balanced facilitator and human being.

Whether you are completely new to yoga or already teaching, this training meets you where you are and encourages authenticity, confidence, and trust in your own unique way of sharing the practice.

Yes.

You do not need to be physically flexible or physically advanced in your yoga practice to participate in this training.

In fact, this course intentionally moves away from perfection-based yoga culture and instead focuses on awareness, embodiment, nervous system sensitivity and learning how to work intelligently with your own body.

Outside of the Bali immersion retreat, we recommend allowing approximately:

• 4–6 hours per week for personal practice, online trainings, reflection and study

Some weeks may feel lighter or heavier depending on the training schedule and your own pace of completion.

The course has been intentionally designed to support sustainable integration alongside modern life commitments.

If you need to extend at-home study and practice components beyond the six-month course, you can! This means the hours per week will lessen.

Yes.

Upon enrolment, you'll receive access to selected online resources and preparatory materials before the Bali immersion begins.

For example, we'll post you a required reading text book, with chapter review questions. You can also begin logging any personal yin yoga and meditation practice sessions guided by a teacher - you'll receive instant access to online classes to enable this.

This allows you to gradually ease into the training experience and begin establishing supportive practices.

And you'll be getting a head start on the at-home study and practice course requirements!

(it's also fine to wait until the Bali immersion to begin the at-home study and practice course requirements)

Yes.

While the guided online learning pathway is designed across approximately 6 months, you may take up to 12 months to complete all at-home study and practice requirements with support from the training team.

We understand life circumstances vary, and the training has been intentionally designed with flexibility and sustainability in mind.

Yes.

Flexible payment plans are available if you  wish to spread your investment over time, instead of paying upfront.

Payment plans can extend until 30 June 2027, with minimum payment milestones required throughout the training period (see Payment Options further above).
