Welcome to the Akirayoga - 20 Hour Certified Certificate in Yin Yoga PHYSIOLOGY Teacher Training

A comprehensive guide to understanding the Subtle energetic body within Yin yoga through the Central Meridian system in Chinese Medicine & how these concepts are applied to our internal organ system, our physical and emotional health & the yin yoga postures.

Expand your practice & feel confident to teach these concepts to others.

Within the Yin yoga Central Meridian system, Meridians, are pathways in which energy travel within our tissues that run on each side of the body. Each meridian is correlated to a specific internal organ. The meridians communicate information to your organs, such as the need for temperature regulation, emotional regulation, & more. When your meridians & organs are in harmony, your body is more likely to be in a healthy condition. When you are experiencing disharmony, the meridians can become congested or blocked. This can have an effect on the mind-body-spirit connection showing imbalances physically & emotionally.

This course is designed for all levels, including beginners, intermediate & advanced yoga practitioners. Anyone interested in the Yin yoga subtle energetic body system, Yoga teachers who would like to expand their skills, & health care practitioners who want to provide the therapeutic benefits of yoga to their clients.

Akirayoga will gently guide you through the Central Meridian System within the theoretical lectures. We apply the theory to our physical practices, offering intelligently built sequences & guided instructions that will allow you to settle into the physical practices without having to keep watching the screen. You can practice at your own pace in the comfort of your home & can come back to the course as often as desired. Two breathing practices are also offered to work with the energetics of the body using the breath.
