Begins January 11th, 2025
Guided by Lisa Luther
The Yin + Restorative Teachers training supports teachers in offering students passive styles of yoga in addition to the more dynamic styles of practices predominitly experienced in studio settings. The value of these passive styles include that both Yin and Restorative yoga can easily be adapted to suit practitioners of all levels as well as prioritizing a holistic approach to well-being by focusing on physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. As teachers, when we have the skills to offer more diverse practices, we truly are offering a more well-rounded and comprehensive experience of yoga, catering to the diverse needs of students and fostering a more inclusive and supportive yoga community.
