50HR Yin Yoga Teacher Training
“Silence is the language of god, all else is poor translation.” Rumi
50HR Yin Yoga Teacher Training – Buckland Abbey, Devon
23rd – 27th October 2024 (Currently part of the 300hr Yoga Teacher Training course)
Yin Yoga is becoming increasingly popular. We are currently living in an over-dominant Yang (dynamic/strong) world and our currrent western asana practices reflect this. Practitioners are beginning to realise the need for its complementary Yin (restorative/gentle) practice with all the benefits it has to offer.
The Gem Yoga Yin Yoga training course will cover the breakdown of Yin asanas, how to plan affective, safe and appropriate Yin classes, functional anatomy, understanding of fascia, the Energetic body including the chakra system, introduction to the Chinese medicine meridian system and how we hold trauma in the body. Take your yoga practice, teaching ability and inner exploration to the next level. Time for you to dive deep into your inner being with long Yin practices and yogic philosophy studies.
The five day Yin Yoga Teacher Training will be held at The Cider House at Buckland Abbey, tucked away in the 700 acre National Trust Estate on the fringes of Dartmoor, Devon. Take time to explore beautiful country walks on your breaks, and maybe a dip in the river!
The course has space for ten students. You will learn in a relaxed, fun, inspiring environment and be fully supported from the beginning to the end of your journey, and beyond.

“I recently completed Gemma’s amazing Yin Yoga Teacher Training. Gemma is truly inspirational, a great teacher who really personalises her training and explains things incredibly clearly. I learned so much more than Yin yoga."
Sam Goddard, Hove
“During the Gem Yoga retreat I learnt about joint stability in arm balancing poses and the benefits of Yin. I loved the feeling of a daily yoga practice; it has helped open my upper back and the muscles next to my spine from the Yin."
