Yoga Room is excited to welcome David Kim back to Hong Kong in 2024 to lead 50-hr Yin Yoga Teacher Trainings at the studio.

Level 1: (30 hours)Materials Covered:

The YogaWise Yin Yoga Teacher Training (Level 1) is designed for students and teachers who wish to develop a deeper knowledge of this multifaceted yoga style, and emerge with a working definition and basic teaching methodology for Yin Yoga.  There will be a strong emphasis on Anatomy, highlighting skeletal variations, the role of connective tissue, and the nervous system.  An introduction to mindfulness meditation will address the non-physical nature of this profoundly quieting practice.

Key Features of the YogaWise Yin Yoga Training (Level 1) include:

• What’s Your Style? Defining Yin Yoga as a Theory & Practice

• Daoist perspective – Essence of Yin/Yang applied to Asana & Anatomy

• Key Yin Postures: Variations on a Shape

• Yintegration: Introducing Yin to Varied Student Populations

• ”Assessment” Postures: Finding an Appropriate Edge for Different Bodies

Specific Highlights:

• Defining Target Areas: A Functional Approach to Asana

• Understanding Soft-Tissue Tension vs. Structural Compression

• What is Fascia? Exploring the Global Nature of the Extra-Cellular Maitrix

• Skeletal Variations: ”Asanalysis” of Our Unique Bones

• Beginner’s Mindfulness: Focusing Attention on Purpose

Level 2: (20 hours) Materials covered:

This 20-Hour module will introduce the working concept of Myofascial Meridians, and their role in communicating and transmitting stress forces along key longitudinal “tracks” of the body, which directly impact our posture and ease of movement. We will explore these tracks through the Myofascial-Release technique of ball rolling -- a targeted approach to maintain the suppleness of our connective tissue and prevent fascial adhesions. Ball-rolling is a particularly effective form of kinesthetic “body-mapping” and self-massage, reinforcing the gentle stimulus cultivated in Yin Yoga.

Moving further along the Yin spectrum, this module introduces the fundamental principles and techniques of Restorative Yoga, and its profoundly soothing effect on the Nervous System. We will practice the skillful implementation of props to completely support and pacify the body, and offer practical examples of how to integrate Restorative postures within the context of a Yin class, while differentiating the respective intentions of each system. Restoratives are particularly effective for self-practice and private sessions, offering an excellent professional opportunity for teachers to diversify their repertoire.

150小時 正念瑜伽 –

 培養同等心

人生遇到起伏是十常八九的，而正念的練習就是教導我們如何學習以平等心的態度去面對生命的種種。瑜伽經是比較屬陽性的練習方式，當配合屬陰性的正念練習時我們就能夠在人生及靈性修行中學會收放自如，並懂得何時攻、何時守的中庸之道。

 正念是培養平等心及覺知的練習。心的領悟不像頭腦的知識，急不來，必須透過一次又一次自身體驗而累積回來的。亦因如此，這個單元所需時間亦相對較長，目的為了提供足夠的時間讓您在生活點滴中體會正念療癒的力量。

 這十三週的課程包含三個部分：

7 天的師資訓練（9月23-29日）－ 正念哲理的基本

10週的自我研讀 (9月30日- 12月12日) - 把正念應用在生活及陰陽瑜伽練習中

*此部份將以ZOOM 形式進行，每兩星期一次，定於以下週六晚上20:00-22:00:

10 月12日

10 月 26 日

11 月 8 日

11 月 22日

12 月 7 日

10天的師資訓練（12月13-22日，17日為休息日）－ 修正並加深對正念的理解

專業認證：

 這單元是 300小時高階培訓的必修單元，也可以是一個個人進修的課程。學員必須投入參與整個訓練過程，包括準時交指定作業，才能獲得美國瑜伽聯盟（Yoga Alliance）的認證。

Schedule

Time: 9 to 5.30pm

Venue: The Yoga Room 4/F Studio

This training is designed for yoga and meditation teachers, coaches, and parents who wish to deepen their relationship with Yoga Nidra and learn the tools, roadmaps, and principles to become an expert Yoga Nidra facilitator and make a positive impact on others.

We will first deepen your own personal relationship to this fascinating and deep and accessible practice by exploring what Yoga Nidra is, how it works, and how it offers such a transformational effect on students. We will do this through pranayama, mindfulness practices, and discussion yogic philosophy, myths, science, and psychology, and of course by practicing Yoga Nidra.

Then we will explore how to master the principles of the Yoga Nidra to meet the specific needs of your students with this practice. I will share with you over 100 pages of my carefully crafted Yoga Nidra scripts that you can learn from and adapt in order to create your own scripts to be uncommonly effective to meet the specific needs of your students.

You will learn to master the tools of facilitating Yoga Nidra such as:

• Using The Yoga Nidra Roadmap

• Understanding and using the Koshas as a guide and tool

• Learning the art of welcoming, recognizing, and witnessing (sometimes responding)

• Your voice as a tool

• Using relaxation as a tool

• Mastering visualizations

• Leveraging a Sankalpa to ally with Source to co-create what you need and desire

• How to create a learning environment and safe container for the practice

• How Yoga Nidra creates lasting calm, expanded perspective, and improves sleep

We will also practice teaching and building Yoga Nidra classes together so you can become familiar with how to create your own scripts based on the needs of your students.

Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate of completion and be ready to teach Yoga Nidra!
