The programme
This November, immerse yourself in 40 hours devoted entirely to Yin Yoga, guided by Lucie Checa and Vanessa Théroux. This training is designed both for yoga teachers wishing to deepen their teaching and for practitioners seeking to enrich their personal practice.
Over four weekends, you will explore the foundations of Yin Yoga, functional anatomy, fascia, the meridians of traditional Chinese medicine, as well as concepts of mudras, symbolism and a somatic approach. You will leave with the knowledge and tools to create safe, intentional and inspiring sequences.
