About the Event:
Want to learn a style of yoga that’s focused on bringing balance – physically, energetically, and mentally and be able to share this wisdom?
Gain the knowledge, confidence and Yoga Alliance certification to start teaching Yin Yoga Therapy™ and share this wonderful practice with our foundational yin yoga teacher 200 hr certification course.
Stretched over 3 weeks of immersion we will dive deep into the yin side of yoga. Additionally, we provide you with the online video material needed to fulfil the more general topics of yoga history, philosophy and general anatomy for your Yoga Alliance certification.
Yin Yoga Therapy™:
Yin Yoga waves all layers of our being -body, energy, and mind- into a seamless whole, allowing a sublime experience of stillness and peace. The stillness of the long-held static stretches with relaxed muscles in Yin Yoga allows the space for mindful awareness and the opportunity to reveal and release deep layers of physical or emotional tension held within your connective tissue.
You will learn all about the ancient healing wisdom of the ancient Taoist philosophy, the main Acupuncture Meridians and Chi flow in the body. Find out more about their subconscious value and the applied body acupressure points and Yin Yoga poses to help balance those energies and stimulate a free chi flow. We will explore each body’s target area and its correlation with the meridians and facial pathways.
We explain to you ways to emotional healing and the release of energetic blockages in the poses.
You will get to know more about additional tools and different meditation techniques to support this process. We offer you insight into the power of visualization and breath, Yoga Nidra, Mantras and Mudras. There will be different meditations, healing sessions, cacao ceremonies and chanting circles. In our Circles of Transformation, we create a safe space to connect and share. Together we open the gates to a long-lasting transformation.

Practitioners´ Bios:
Alex and Jenny will guide you to your Yoga Alliance 200-hr certification on a journey through the Taoist elements and their healing wisdom. There is no specific prerequisite required but an open mind and commitment and dedication to your personal development.
As an all-time seeker on a soul-searching journey, she travelled the globe and came in touch with many different healing systems and yoga styles. Eventually, she moved from her native place Germany to India to immerse herself in Ayurveda and Yoga nearly two decades ago.
In her Yin Yoga teachings, she integrates the ancient healing wisdom of the Acupuncture Meridians and the Chi flow in meditative yoga practice. In a Daoist/ Zen way, the focus is on the value of breath, insight & intuition – supporting a lifestyle that feels in alignment with our deepest self.
Besides her teacher training courses, Alexandra offers counseling sessions and a variety of holistic treatments. Here she looks at the patient’s whole system, environmental, emotional, and physical. She breaks down complex theories from different healing systems into digestible chunks for use in our daily life and offers practical information and encouragement to feel healthy, vital, joyful, and free.
Alexandra believes the good life is a matter of mind and soul and open to everyone. Energy flows where attention goes. Her goal is to empower you to live the most authentic, healthy life possible. A life that feels in alignment with your deepest self. Nothing brings her more joy than watching this happen. She lives and works with dedication, extraordinary intention and the spirit of liberation from convention.
