Course Styles

Yoga Asanas Covered During Yin Yoga Teacher Training

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that focuses on holding postures for longer periods of time, usually between 3 to 5 minutes or more. Along with theory, our experienced teachers will guide you through a wide range of Yin yoga asanas for deeper well-being and complete understanding.

Butterfly Pose

Baddha Konasana is a seated posture that gently opens up the hips and groin. Held for several minutes, it softens the inner thighs, releases tension in the lower back and quiets the nervous system, making it one of the most accessible and grounding Yin shapes.

Sphinx & Seal Pose

Salamba Bhujangasana (Sphinx) and the deeper Seal Pose are gentle backbends that lengthen the spine, open the chest and stimulate the lumbar region. These postures teach students how to surrender into compression and receive the rebound of stillness after release.

Dragon Pose

A low-lunge hip opener that stretches the hip flexors, quadriceps and psoas. Dragon Pose is often held in many variations and is one of the most therapeutic shapes for releasing stored tension, especially for students who sit for long hours.

Sleeping Swan Pose

Also known as Pigeon Pose, Sleeping Swan is a deep hip-opening posture that stretches the glutes, hip flexors and outer hips. In Yin, it is held passively with full support from props, inviting emotional and physical release.

Dragonfly Pose

Upavistha Konasana, or Dragonfly, is a seated wide-legged forward fold that stretches the inner thighs, groin and hamstrings. It is excellent for calming the mind and releasing the lower back, while inviting a meditative quality through a long hold.

Reclining Twist & Child's Pose

Supta Matsyendrasana and Balasana are gentle, restorative shapes that wring out the spine, release the lower back and signal the body into the parasympathetic state. Both are taught as essential resting and integration postures within a Yin sequence.
