This 100-hour course focuses in detail on the concept of Yin Yoga. Besides this, you will have the chance to learn Hatha yoga, meditation, breathing, chanting, and relaxation. Yin Yoga is an intensely slow-paced style of yoga developed in the modern age, which affects deep levels of connective tissue. It is a counter-practice of Hatha yoga and is based on Taoist philosophy. Yin Yoga is a passive form of yoga that moisturizes connective tissues, ligaments, and fascia. Through Yin Yoga Training in Nepal, practitioners can release physical and emotional blockages from deep levels of tissues and cells, helping to reduce stress, trauma, and psychological tension.
Understanding Yin Yoga
In every human body, there are three kinds of energy: Yin (+), Yang (−), and Neutral (o). These energies run through the body in the meridian system according to Traditional Chinese Medicine. By focusing on deeper connective tissues rather than muscles, the practice targets the Yin aspect of the body, representing slow, passive, and restorative energy.
When poses are held for extended periods, Qi flows more freely through the meridian channels, promoting balance in organs and systems. The slower pace encourages meditation and mindfulness, fostering a deeper connection to the internal state of the body. This understanding forms the foundation of Yin Yoga Training in Nepal.

History of Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga originates from Taoist philosophy and Traditional Chinese Medicine. In the 1980s, Paul Grilley developed the modern system based on anatomy and Taoist principles.

Today, Yin Yoga Training in Nepal continues this lineage by blending philosophy, anatomy, and meditative awareness.
