“Yin yoga is the poetry of slow motion. It's where we find grace in stillness and depth in surrender.” Sarah Powers

In this 70-hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training, two international teachers from Floripa Yoga Academy, Eva and Illona, guide you into the quieter, deeper side of yoga.

Each day is connected to one element of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Through yang and yin practice, lectures on the meridians, pranayama, meditation and somatic release, you'll learn to teach Yin with knowledge, sensitivity and confidence.

Graduates receive a 70-hour Yoga Alliance continuing education diploma.

Your teachers

Eva

Yin, Vinyasa, pranayama & meditation

Eva's passion for movement since childhood led her to yoga. Years of travel in India and Asia took her deep into yoga's roots, which she integrates with modern science. Her Vinyasa classes offer creative mandala sequences with philosophy and mantra chanting with harmonium, and her Yin classes draw on neuroscience, Veda and non-dual Tantra. In this training she teaches Yin and Vinyasa, the functional approach to Yin poses, pranayama and meditation.

Illona

Hatha, nervous system & TCM

Since 2016, Illona has guided students with warmth, curiosity and an unwavering commitment to personal growth, inspired by a fascination with human behaviour, emotional patterns and the wisdom of the body. She has studied positive psychology, integrative nutrition, metaphysics and Traditional Chinese Medicine. In this training she offers Hatha and nervous system support classes, and teaches the channels and the connection between Yin and TCM, inviting everyone to question the position we take in life and the patterns we create unconsciously.
