Learn to teach Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra at this Yoga Alliance-certified 50-hour training with Lola Rephann.

Yoga Nidra
In this training, you will learn the science of Yin Yoga and what makes it different from yang, or more active, styles of yoga, and learn how to sequence and teach Yin Yoga.
You will also learn how to teach Yoga Nidra, which means in Sanskrit, yogic sleep. Yoga Nidra is a deeply restorative practice that rests, repairs, and re-patterns the brain and nervous system. 1 hour of yoga nidra is equivalent to 4 hours of sleep.

NOTE ABOUT FOOD: Cuantro Vientos has a large communal kitchen which we will use to have some planned group meals and some unplanned meals. You can take your meals solo, in a small group, or off property. Doing it this way offers more flexibility in the schedule for those who want to use their breaks for activities like beach time, rest, etc.
Fruit and coffee will be supplied for a light morning meal. Lunch is on your own. For dinner, I will plan some meals we prepare and eat together, some out as a group, and some on your own.
Quiet time, especially at meals, helps you digest not just your food, but all you are learning! I will provide an estimated food budget per person when I send you your welcome email. It won’t be more than $500, unless you want to spend your week eating and drinking lavishly.
Since Yin is all about turning inwards, monitor your true appetite for food, socializing, outdoors, rest, etc. This is a very valuable practice and part of the training itself. Listen to your body.
