DESCRIPTION

Discover the Science Behind Every Breath

This module focuses on the fascinating world of the Respiratory System and the transformative practice of Pranayama, blending ancient wisdom with cutting-edge physiology. We break down complex physiology into engaging, accessible knowledge, showing you why breathing exercises work on a biological level.

Master the Art of Pranayama

With a foundation in the “how,” we guide you in the “do.” Students will be taught how to perform Jala Neti (nasal cleansing) safely and teach the many pranayama techniques from the famed Bihar School of Yoga, renowned for these higher teachings of yoga. Focus will be on learning how to teach different types of pranayama at different stages to beginners and advanced students and understand why some techniques are unsafe to teach to beginners. Taught by Jo Phee who graduated directly from the Bihar lineage, students will leave the training equipped with many creative ways of interweaving pranayama within the yin practice.

 

As the FIRST yoga school in the world to create a 300-hour advanced yin yoga certification program, this comprehensive training is designed in accordance with the requirements for registration with Yoga Alliance USA. Upon graduation, students may apply directly with Yoga Alliance USA for “YACEP” status or accumulate these hours towards Yinspiration’s 300-hr certification with Yoga Alliance.
