Yin Yoga ~ What, Why, How: 2 Hours

January 11, 2026 • 10 AM–12 PM
True Path Collective, Port Perry, Ontario

This two-hour workshop is perfect for anyone new to Yin or for seasoned practitioners who want to reconnect with the many magical facets of yin yoga.

 

Together, we’ll explore the what, why, and how of this beloved practice and what makes it so uniquely grounding, healing and transformational

Why Yin Yoga – Stillness for Body and Mind

  • The soft and long-held floor poses gently stress and strengthen the connective tissue, hydrate the joints, and improve mobility and flexibility
  • Instead of pushing or striving, you relax into each shape, allowing gravity to do the work. This quiet approach calms the nervous system, and encourages emotional balance. It’s an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and restore harmony in body, mind, and energy
  • Yin yoga nourishes the meridians of Chinese Medicine and the energy of the subtle body is harmonized
  • In stillness, through inward drawn attention, we have the opportunity to develop self-compassion and understanding as we learn to fully inhabit ourselves with kindness

 

You’ll leave with a clear understanding of Yin Yoga’s foundations, plus simple tools to support a deeply nourishing home practice.

A take-home handout is included.

Elaine L – Yin Yoga Teacher Training

Dear Dianne,                              May 5, 2019

This has been an amazing, positive, informative, organized, thorough learning experience.  It is obvious that you have put your heart and soul (and mind!) into designing this course.

You are great at teaching too – respectful and caring of each of your students and you have a wonderful sense of humour and a kind heart.

I will, without a doubt sign up for more offerings from you , and I will recommend your course to others whole-heartedly.

Thank you!

Namaste

Elaine
