BUY NOWprogram prerequisite
this program is not entry-level. it requires a fundamental understanding of yin yoga, channel concepts and the theory of exercise. these are all offered. in our 200hr yin yoga & variable anatomy program. in addition, it is recommended that you have taken my qiology module I (yang channels).
this event can be a 50hr module in my blackmat yogi 500hr tt program (qiology: yin channels - recognized by yoga alliance), or it can be a yogic indulgence (you have the option to miss the morning lectures if you don't want a certificate), a simple time to practice spent with good people, portuguese vibes and good food.
if in doubt, please contact me.
Taking Functional Yin - And Making it Yin Therapy
-
curriculum overview
NOTE: This program is one half of a two-part series.
The other Qiology program (Yang & Foundations) introduces fundamental concepts, diet and the Yang Channels.
This program takes these concepts further.There is no better time to find health in our lives.
The YangSheng (養生) approach to health is often dismissed or mystified...
What we will learn here is a part of the 3-pillar approach to long-term health outlined in the classics of Chinese Medicine, too often overlooked by modern people:
精 Jing (physical health),
氣 Qi (emotional, energetic health), &
神 Shen (Psychological, spiritual health).We cover Shen & Jing overwhelmingly in our 200hr and Meditate Modules.
This program is all about Qi.
Qi theory proposes we can learn simple principles of prevention of pain and resolution of pain by ameliorating Qi flow.
This means looking in detail at the physiology (structures of) and pathology (sickness) of the six layers of the body.This course offers life skills designed to give you physical healing and a slower, longer term view to wellness. You will also be able to teach this to others.
Our Yin practices are Myofascial and Pressure (Trigger Point) Release practices which combine targeted channel stimulation with Yin poses.
