Join me next spring in Tuscany, at Maraviglia, Centre for Conscious Living in the rural village of Monte San Savino, an hour traveling South from Florence. I will be teaching a 60hrs Foundation training in Yin Yoga (Yoga Alliance® certified), all is inclusive! 

A week to discover the slower paced and more passive style of yoga, being surrounded with like-minded people, sharing and learning about the teachings of yin, enjoying conversations during the organically harvested vegetarian meals, enjoying each others company and conversations, but as well being immersed with the silence of the rural Tuscan countryside. 

This training is for you, teachers and practitioners of yoga who would like to deepen their understanding of Yin and Yang and to fully immerse in their practice. To let yourself reconnect to your purpose as a teacher and practitioner. This is a gift for yourself, to fully recharge and experience how the teachings of yin yoga will enrich your being. 

This is a comprehensive 60-hour training and it will leave you with a clear understanding of yin yoga, fascia, anatomy, meridian lines and the therapeutic effect of the practice. We will explore the Western anatomy and the TCM Meridian theory to understand the concepts how these are complementary healing modalities. Through this training, you will learn how to use yin yoga principles to improve performance and overall wellbeing using postures to increase flexibility, mobility as well breath techniques to calm and centre the mind.
