Yin Yoga Teacher Training Module ΙΙ (70 hrs) with Maria Levantinou
Module II: Taoism and Traditional Chinese Medicine (70hrs)
In Level B (70 hrs) of the Certified Yin Yoga Teacher Training (200 hrs), we explore the wisdom of Taoism and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and discover how these ancient spiritual and healing traditions can transform our Yin Yoga practice and teaching. At this level we are invited to deepen into the flow of life, the wisdom of nature and the power of the energy within us,
We will get in touch with the energetic dimension of Yin Yoga, learning to direct the flow of Qi, identify points of balance and imbalance and create healing Yin sequences based on Traditional Chinese Medicine.
What we will discover in this Module:
- The philosophy of Taoism - the art of not trying, the harmony of Yin & Yang and the connection to the cycles of life.
- The theory of Qi & meridians - how energy flows in the body and how Yin practice affects its movement.
- The theory of the Five Elements (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal) and how they relate to our emotions, organs and general well-being.
- Acupuncture points - how to locate, activate and incorporate them into Yin Yoga for deeper healing.
- Experiential awareness exercises - discovering through body sensation how the qualities of Yin and Yang manifest in movement and stillness.
- Chi Kung - the joyful mastery of energy, cultivating Qi and enhancing your vital energy.
- Taoist & Tibetan meditation techniques - meditative practices that cultivate calmness of mind and heightened awareness.
- Synthesis & guidance of Yin Yoga sequences based on meridian theory and acupuncture points, to design classes with therapeutic intention and effect.
Training Method:
