Program 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.
