REST. REWIRE. RECONNECT.
A deeply embodied teacher training exploring stillness, restoration, and the science of rest through Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. Grounded in anatomy, trauma-informed pedagogy, and modern somatic science.

This 75-hour Yin & Nidra Teacher Training is designed for teachers and practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of stillness, nervous system regulation, and the art of holding space. Through the lens of Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra, you’ll explore how the body stores tension, how rest rewires the mind, and how to safely guide others toward inner connection. Our approach integrates ancient wisdom with modern anatomy and neuroscience, offering both intellectual depth and practical tools for today’s movement educators.
