Yin Yoga Teacher Training with Betty Papadopoulou in Cyprus

22 Aug 2022 - 28 Aug 2022
Trainings

In Yin yoga we hold the poses for a longer time than usual, cultivating the qualities of compassionate acceptance and non-attachment, to awaken the more yin part of ourselves.
As a result, the practice turns into a powerful meditative journey and it is also one of the most effective forms of exercise in terms of body elasticity/plasticity and joint health.

Offer yourself a unique experience for a Yoga Teacher Training combined with holidays at the small and picturesque village of Tochni, which is tucked away in the hills of Cyprus, only 10 minutes away from a beautiful beach.

➝ How does Yin relate to “energy”? How can it strengthen it, make it more distinct?
➝ How can it help us to get in touch with our true nature, or “our original medicine” and also help us bring harmony between our yin and yang nature?
➝ How do we learn to listen to stories, our own but also of “nature”? What could we do with stories we no longer need?

?? ???? ????????

We will share experiences and answers to the above questions, and understand how Yin with its ancient yogic roots, can affect our physical, energetic and emotional body.
We will explore ways to lead a Yin class, incorporate Yin postures, attitudes and philosophy into any practice, and be able to hold sacred & safe space for a Yin class as well as a “sacred” Yin ceremony.
We will also share many beautiful/playful sacred practices & rituals, to open our hearts, broaden our consciousness and enhance our experience as yoga teachers.

The training will take place at the beautiful and traditional Tochni Village.
Tochni Village is centrally located – only 7km from the beach so is perfect for a blend of relaxation by the pool in between classes or heading further out to explore during time off or on an allocated excursion day. It is a small and picturesque village which lies between Nicosia, Larnaca and Limassol.
Set on the slopes of two hills, its stone-built houses line the narrow streets that wind their way to the beautiful church of Constantinos and Eleni.
