The 200-hour ONLINE Yin Yoga Anatomy & Meridian Teacher Training is suitable for anyone who wants to practice and teach yoga in a liberating way by learning a functional approach to yoga. Whether your goal is to deepen your own yoga practice or to teach yoga, you are in the right place. 

You will gain a great understanding of the human body and the energetic effects of yoga, which allows you to improve and deepen your own yoga practice and is very useful for people who want to exercise injury-free beyond the scope of yoga.

If you don’t want to become a yoga teacher, you don’t have to teach yourself during the training. But you do attend the classes taught by fellow students. You might want to help prepare the class and learn about sequencing and how to adapt poses, as an inspiration to create a personal beneficial yoga practice for yourself.

At the end of the training you will receive a certificate of attendance.  

Some experience with the Yin yoga practice is required. You don’t have to be an advanced practitioner, but you certainly have to have a good basis. This means that you must have practised Yin yoga yourself for at least 2 months.

José believes that having a minimum level of experience, allows you to experiment with and integrate the teachings of this ONLINE training better. Apart from that, she believes that you should always first experience the Yin Yoga path yourself before you can communicate this in your classes.

If you have any questions, please contact José.

Spreading the ONLINE training over 10-11 months is a very conscious choice. José finds it important that trainees have time to practice, experiment, study and integrate. In this way, you can enter your own process of transformation, build your self-confidence and embody what you have learned.

Outside of the online contact sessions via Zoom, you will have the opportunity to start teaching and practicing yoga using the functional approach. This will give you insights and bring about certain questions, which you can share during the following Zoom sessions.  

Of course, this is entirely up to you and varies per person. 

The homework and assignments on the e-learning platform are designed to support the material covered in the online Zoom sessions and in the 50 and 30-hour Modules. They are intended to help you integrate the teachings into your own practice and the way you teach. You can make these assignments as often as you like, remember repetition is the key to learning in a relaxed way. 

Practising with your fellow students on- and/or offline is very valuable because you can learn from each other and they are able to give constructive feedback.

On average you can assume: 

• +/-  2 hours of homework per week (making assignments & quizzes)
• Meet online or in-person with your Study group once or twice a month. 
• Additional time you spend on practising Yin yoga and meditation, either by yourself or taking classes externally.

Yes! 

Many of my trainees start teaching in small studios, gyms or in private with friends and family during the training. As a result, they make a lot of flying hours and can confidently increase their classes after obtaining their certificate.

No.

The content of this ONLINE training is so extensive and deepening that it is an excellent basis to start your career as a yoga teacher.

The language used in the online Zoom sessions, 50 and 30-hour Modules and materials (PowerPoint, manuals and suggested books and DVDs) is English.
But as José speaks Dutch and Spanish she can – if needed – answer specific questions in those languages.
