Let Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Reiki become your art, your philosophy, and your way of life. Yin yoga is more than just stretching and rejuvenation; it is a practice that beautifully complements other healing methods. In Yin Yoga, as well as in Yoga Nidra and Reiki, you discover the power of surrender and release while opening yourself up to guidance from beyond.
In this 100-hour program (module block to RYT 300), you will master the foundations of the Yin Yoga Therapy™ approach and delve deep into the art of Yoga Nidra. Additionally, you will have the invaluable opportunity to receive a Reiki Initiation. Throughout the course, you will learn simple principles, tools, and practices that restore balance to your body, kick-starting the healing process for your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. By awakening and aligning your body’s underlying energy, you activate your own innate ability to heal and transform.
In Yin yoga, yoga Nidra, and Reiki, we explore the concept of surrendering and releasing while opening ourselves up to guidance from beyond. We release emotional tension and stagnant energy, allowing for deep healing and transformation. By listening to our bodies and being present with our sensations, we can experience mindfulness principles on a physical level. This course offers the opportunity to cultivate self-love and abundance, and to share it with the world. We will delve into the foundations of Yin yoga and also learn about yoga Nidra and Reiki, gaining a deep understanding of their theories and practical applications. Together, we will awaken and align our body’s energy, activating our innate healing abilities. This course is a journey of art, philosophy, and a way of living. If you’re interested in exploring these practices further, this is the course for you.
Yin Yoga combines body, energy, and mind into a seamless whole, allowing for a peaceful experience of stillness. Through long-held static stretches with relaxed muscles, we create space for awareness and release deep layers of tension in our connective tissue. The philosophy of Yin Yoga is deeply rooted in Daoism and the Meridians, providing us with wisdom and guidance on our healing journey. By stimulating different meridian energy streams, we activate our body’s own healing powers.
Yoga Nidra, also known as yogic sleep, is a powerful meditation technique that helps us combat the stress of modern life. By practicing Yoga Nidra, we enter a state of deep relaxation and rejuvenation, experiencing a sense of wholeness. This technique guides us through the different layers of our being, facilitating emotional and physical healing. It is a practice that supports the “rest and digest” parasympathetic state of the nervous system, reducing stress, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms. Just 30 minutes of Yoga Nidra is equivalent to several hours of deep sleep.
Reiki is an energy healing art that taps into the universal life force energy. It is a subtle and effective form of energy work that helps with physical, mental, and emotional healing. Reiki practitioners believe that when our energy is strong and free-flowing, our body and mind are in a positive state of health. Reiki sessions help remove energetic blockages, reduce tension and stress, and create an environment for healing on all levels. Reiki can be performed hands-on or hands-off, and it can even be done remotely.
During the Reiki initiation ceremony, the student receives the ability to use Reiki and connect with the universal life force energy. This process clears blockages and initiates a period of transformation and self-growth. The Usui Reiki system consists of three levels, each building upon the previous one. Reiki Level I focuses on opening the energy channels on a physical level. Reiki Level II allows practitioners to practice Reiki on others and provides them with sacred symbols for deeper connection. Reiki Level III is the Master level, where practitioners gain the ability to teach and attune others to Reiki.
Our daily schedule is designed to immerse you in study and practice while providing free time for exploration and self-study. Mornings begin with nature meditation and yang yoga classes, followed by theory and methodology classes. The afternoons are dedicated to yin yoga practice and Reiki circles. Here’s an example of a typical day:
– 6:30-7:00: Sunrise Sadhana Spiritual Self Practice
– 7:
In Ubud, Bali, you’ll find a thriving art community. But that’s not all that makes Ubud special. The stunning central Balinese foothills are home to emerald green rice fields, and the village used to be a hub for medicinal resources. It’s no wonder that travelers and artists from all corners of the globe have been drawn to Ubud in recent years – the surroundings are incredibly beautiful and the way of life here is simply gracious. Some people have even made Ubud their permanent home. If you want to experience the magic of Ubud, just take a stroll south of the village through the terraced paddy fields and make your way to the monkey forest. You’ll be greeted by freshwater spouting out from the sheer rock at the ravine’s base. And if you’re looking for some purification, a bath in a secluded, shady spot is the perfect remedy.

The program was amazing – it provided a top-notch learning experience with a focus on overall wellness and personal growth. And let me tell you, the venue was just stunning! As soon as we arrived, we were welcomed with open arms and made to feel right at home. The serene location gave us the perfect opportunity to dive into our spiritual growth in a peaceful and natural environment.

Oh, and the practice classes! They were such a game-changer for me. I found a sense of calm and balance that I had never experienced before. We were taught all the methods, tools, and tricks to lead these amazing classes ourselves in a mindful and intentional way.
The training itself was a perfect mix of theory, demonstration, and practical application. They made sure we grasped everything by starting with the theories and principles, and then we got to apply our knowledge in hands-on sessions. It was such a valuable experience to practice teaching and receive constructive feedback. Trust me, it was one of the best ways to improve quickly and really make the most of what we were learning. Plus, the small group size allowed for plenty of personalized attention and support.

October 22, 2023 at 12:00 amAlex and Tina, the teachers, were absolutely amazing. They not only excelled at teaching, but they were also incredible human beings. I loved the location. The rooms may not be extravagant, but my room was spacious and blissfully quiet. The Suly centre itself has everything you need in one place, and the moment you step through the entrance, you instantly feel a sense of peace and tranquility. Outside, Bali is bustling with traffic and noise, but inside, it’s a serene oasis.
The class experience was absolutely wonderful. At 61, I was the oldest in the group by several years. We had members as young as 20 and everywhere in between. But I never felt out of place or unwelcome. I was fully embraced and integrated into my group. Age should never hold you back. Just go for it. Yin yoga is perfect for mature individuals, but it was loved by everyone in the group. It truly is an essential part of yoga as a whole.
The food was exceptional and there was always plenty to go around. The yoga shalas were fantastic, and we even had a meditation room where we started our mornings. It was located right next to the rice fields, which provided a peaceful walking opportunity. And the swimming pool? It was pure bliss. The water was perfect, and the views from the pool were breathtaking. This course not only fulfilled my yoga needs, but it also touched a spiritual side of me that I never even knew existed.
If you have the chance, don’t miss out on joining Gela for the spiritual cleansing. It was truly a standout moment.

October 19, 2023 at 12:00 amI absolutely loved the way they planned out the three weeks to prepare us for teaching. They really took the time to carefully organize everything. During that time, I learned so much about Yin Yoga and how to effectively teach it. We even got the chance to put our newly gained knowledge into practice by teaching. They also covered the business side of becoming a yoga instructor, which was really beneficial for anyone looking to make a career change. But one of the things I enjoyed the most was the daily routine they had us follow. We would wake up early, just as the sun was rising, and start the day with meditation. Then we would do some physical exercises to get our bodies awake and moving. The vegetarian meals were also a nice touch. And in the middle of the day, we would have a break for self-study. Finally, we would go to bed early. This routine completely transformed my body’s rhythm in a positive way. I highly recommend this training to anyone who is seeking a true transformation and wants to dive into the world of yoga teaching.

Alex is incredible at showing her students how to do this through her own classes and lectures. She’s skilled at breaking down complex topics into practical and fun explanations, and she does it all with genuine warmth and care.

March 27, 2023 at 12:00 amIf you’re planning a trip to the Maldives, make sure to pack some of your favorite snacks and food for leisure time. The island doesn’t offer a wide variety of food options, so it’s best to come prepared. Also, remember to dress respectfully and adhere to the local dress codes. Bring enough cash for dining out. Both Alexandra and Jenny were amazing teachers and wonderful individuals. I immediately connected with Alexandra’s calm and grounded energy and was extremely satisfied with her teaching style. She had a compassionate, clear, and gentle voice, with deep knowledge of Yin Yoga. She always reassured us not to stress about the final exam because we would eventually pass it. They reviewed the material almost daily in the last weeks, so we ended up learning a lot. Jenny was also a kind and professional Yang Yoga instructor. We even went on a snorkeling trip together, swimming alongside dolphins, which was an incredible experience.

If I had the time, I would have preferred to do the same training in one of the other more Eastern locations where it is offered, but it just didn’t fit my schedule. This training offers a comprehensive introduction to Yin Yoga, allowing students to build a solid foundation of authentic Yin Yoga theory and practice, including its contemporary possibilities.
Alex is an amazing teacher who is generous and professional. She is able to tune in with a wide range of student profiles and shares her in-depth knowledge from a place of passion, making it accessible and easy to remember. Personally, I love how the course connects theory to practice, and the wide curriculum provides ample opportunities for further self-study through the generous course material that Alex provides.
When I arrived, I was new to Yin yoga and skeptical, coming from a background of teaching Yang classes. I was looking forward to a balanced Yin/Yang week, not just as a course but also as a personal treat. Now, I understand why Yang needs Yin and vice versa, and I have discovered an element within Yin that I want to explore further as a teacher.
Each morning, we started with a creative Yang class led by Tina, a kind-spirited and experienced teacher. She skillfully built up the classes from gentle to intense over the two weeks, allowing entry-level students and seasoned Ashtangies to ease into their bodies over time. Tina also incorporated mindfulness exercises and elements of dance into our daily end-of-the-day classes, which creatively complemented the overall training.
In short, this Yin Yoga training is the one I would choose again if I had to do it all over.

The resort had two yoga studios and a lovely pool, and it was just our YTT group staying there.
During my time in Bali, I learned so much about Yin Yoga and yoga philosophy. I even had the opportunity to teach yoga for the first time, which was incredible. On the weekends, we got to see some amazing sights in Bali. As a parting gift, Alex gave us a mini acupuncture session, which was a nice surprise.
Alex, Heidi, and Jenny were all incredibly knowledgeable and wise when it came to yoga and the yogic lifestyle. They also showed a lot of empathy and kindness towards every student. It was a really supportive and loving atmosphere.

Unfortunately, towards the end of the trip, I had an accident and injured my ankle pretty badly. But Alex took care of me, making sure the staff looked after me and bringing me meals. They even moved me to a more convenient room on the ground floor, which was really helpful.

I absolutely loved the classes, the insights, and the abundance of practical tips. The provided materials are wonderful, and I know I’ll be referring to them all the time. But the training was truly transformative, which is exactly what I was looking for. Before the training, I didn’t feel like a yoga teacher at all, but now I do. I feel confident and prepared to start teaching and share my love for Yin.

February 10, 2022 at 12:00 amThe training completely changed my life and exceeded all my expectations! I can’t recommend this teacher training enough, it’s truly amazing. Alex is an incredible teacher with a yoga style that is absolutely magical and healing. I’ve been to many yoga classes all around the world, but I’ve never felt as inspired as I do with Alex. She is hands down one of the best yoga instructors I’ve ever come across, and the location is absolutely stunning. I feel incredibly lucky to have had this once-in-a-lifetime experience. A big thank you to Alex and the team!

January 31, 2022 at 12:00 amI wanted to expand my yin yoga practice after completing my 200hr Hatha YTT last month, so I decided to take this course. Alex and Azuka were the perfect pair, complementing each other like Yin and Yang. The classes and theory were balanced really well. We learned all about the fundamentals of Yin Yoga, Taoist principles, and the contributions of key people like Paul Grilley, Paulie Zink, Sarah Powers, Bernie Clark, and more. The course manuals provided were very detailed. The teaching aspect was handled with great care, and even those who didn’t plan on becoming teachers enjoyed the process. The jungle shala where we practiced was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by nature and naturally cool throughout the day. The sky shala, where we had our meals and special classes, offered the most breathtaking view of the jungle and ocean in Goa. I was initially hesitant about traveling right now, but getting into India was surprisingly easy (you’ll need a visa, a covid test, and the air suvidh form, though). Thankfully, Alex arranged for an amazing driver named Dinesh to pick us up from the airport, and he continued to take us wherever we wanted to explore for a reasonable price throughout the two weeks. Alex and Azuka truly went above and beyond to make our experience personalized and special. I highly recommend arriving early or staying a few days after the training to enjoy the beautiful beaches. There are plenty of great places to stay near the training location, as well as some fantastic restaurants in the area and even some yoga holiday/retreat hotels.

November 22, 2021 at 12:00 amI wish I could have stayed longer because I had such an amazing time at the training with Alex! It was absolutely perfect. The training itself was top-notch, with a great mix of informative content delivered in an engaging and generous manner. Plus, the atmosphere was so joyful and lively.
The schedule for the classes was well-planned, giving us a good balance of yang practices, theory sessions, yin practices, and even opportunities to teach. There was also time for sharing, studying, and exploring different aspects of yoga, like karma yoga and meditation. It really showed us firsthand what a perfect balance between yin and yang looks like.
The location was like a paradise, and experiencing the Maldives in this way was truly magical. I was able to stay for more than just a few days, which allowed me to immerse myself in the local culture and enjoy exciting excursions like diving and swimming with sharks.
The food was absolutely delicious, and while the accommodations were basic, they were still very functional. The best part was that everything on the island was within walking distance, making it easy to stay focused and fully engaged.
Meeting Alex and Jenny was such a pleasure, and I can’t wait to have the opportunity to go back again. I would literally go again tomorrow if I could!

November 21, 2021 at 12:00 amThis training has been one of the best experiences ever. Alex’s knowledge is impressive and she teaches in a great way. She is a generous human being and there is a great feedback culture throughout the training. I learned so much in these two weeks and also received very practical guidance on how to structure and theme a class. That gives me great confidence in starting to teach yin now. The connection we had as a group with the fellow students was special too. I am very grateful for this experience and I leave with a bag full of new insights.

September 29, 2021 at 12:00 amI’m so happy I completed the 200-hour training! The location was absolutely perfect for staying focused, and there were amazing beaches and excursions for our free time. Jenny’s morning yoga classes and Alex’s theory and yin classes were absolutely fantastic. I learned so much, and even though my main goal wasn’t to become a teacher, I found myself diving deeper into the knowledge I gained. Choosing this YTT was a great decision, and I’m grateful for all the lovely people I met!
