The Yoga Alliance accredited teacher training course offers participants an introduction to MyoYin in Yin Yoga & Spinal Anatomy.

The 50-hour course will include elements of both theory and practice.

MyoYin (Myofascial Release: MFR) is a practice that combines Yin Yoga and self-massage. During the course, we will learn the main principles of Yin Yoga in combination with various MFR techniques (including work with balls). We will deepen our knowledge of the anatomy of the spine and learn various techniques to improve mobility by using asana positions from the Yin yoga repertoire.

This hands-on learning experience is for all fitness instructors, pilates instructors, yoga directors, dance instructors, sports coaches or other movement specialists.

(MyoYin is the trademark of the Jo Phee Yinspiration yoga school and this course follows its methodology)

MyoYin

What really is MyoYin?

Myoyin is essentially about myofascial release in Yin yoga poses, so when practiced together it gives us a powerful tool for working with our own bodies. Now imagine the combination of the feeling you have in your body after an effective massage and relaxing yin yoga, and you will get MyoYin! A perfect combination that can have a powerful effect on your entire body – inducing a deep feeling of relaxation.

Fascial massage and Yin yoga are powerful techniques when used individually and are even more powerful when used together. Both affect the muscular and fascial system to restore the body to optimal health.

Yin Yoga

Over the years, Yin yoga has become an extremely popular practice. Rooted at the crossroads of ancient Eastern cultures, its unique format provides a counterbalance to our fast-paced world. Yin yoga uses static postures to relieve tension, increase breath awareness and develop mindfulness.

This is a slow practice, so most sessions only include a few poses. By maintaining one position for longer, practitioners can use the balls to stimulate the fascia, improving blood flow.

Spine Anatomy

The MyoYin course will familiarize participants with the anatomy of the spine. We will read not only the anatomical descriptions, but above all we will focus on the functional use of this area in the practice of Yin yoga.

After completing the entire course, participants will receive a YA certificate and a ready-made script for practice.
