Yin Yoga Immersion ~ An Embodied Experience of Yin Yoga w/ Kelly Gilmore

Yin Yoga has so much to offer in regards to healing and alignment on the physical, mental and energetic levels and has gained in popularity over the past many years. While “Yang” Yoga styles (Ashtanga, Vinyasa and other “flow” styles) focus on muscles, “Yin” Yoga focuses on connective tissues with deeper longer holds and more time spent in stillness.

Are you feeling the call to slow your practice down?
Are you looking for a therapeutic style of  yoga?
Are you desiring greater mobility?
Are you wanting to incorporate Yin into your Yoga classes but don’t have any training? 

This immersion is designed to provide you with a deeper understanding of Yin Yoga and how it can inspire self awareness and acceptance. You will walk away with knowledge and an embodied experience of the transformative nature of this practice. 

This immersion is appropriate for anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Yin Yoga as a therapeutic technique and/or Yoga teachers looking to incorporate Yin in their classes.

In this Yin Yoga experience, you will gain a deeper understanding of:

  • The principles and philosophy of Yin Yoga
  • The function of Connective Tissue
  • Meridians and Chi
  • Taoism
  • Safe Sequencing for teaching or home practice

There will be a lunch break from 12pm-1pm. Please bring your own lunch, we have picnic tables out back.

7 CEUs are available through Yoga Alliance.

At Asheville Community Yoga, we believe that diverse groups of people with different backgrounds and experiences make for a richer learning experience and open us to a broader understanding of the world we share. To achieve this goal, we have tried our best to set up a tiered pricing system that hopefully makes this training accessible to a wide and diverse range of people.

Our three distinct tiers are…

$100 / Community Rate: Discounted spaces for those in our community who represent marginalized populations and have and/or have limited access to financial resources.

$150 / Sustainer Rate: This rate pays for you and allows for Asheville Community Yoga to run operations in a way that is truly sustainable. 

$200 / Supporter Rate: This is an opportunity for those who have more access to resources to pay it forward and support others on their Yoga journey.

Achieving accessibility for all is dependent on leveraging privilege in our community. If you can afford a price point above $200, please consider paying more for the benefit of all. Please email Kelsey@AshevilleCommunityYoga.org if you would like to pay higher than $200.

 

PLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming. Registering in advance guarantees your spot and helps the studio have adequate staffing. If fewer than 5 participants register the event may be canceled.

Refund Policy: We understand that life happens and unforeseen circumstances come up. If life offers up an unexpected event and you need to withdraw from the workshop: 

  • A full refund will be issued if you need to withdraw 4+ days before the workshop.
