What a 4 days!!
So grateful for those who came to the SomaYin training
What a perfect place to practice stillness and self care.
There’s always some yang in the yin of course. We broke up our long holds and sits with some dance breaks, good coffee from and many laughs!
We left with tired minds and full hearts!

Here is a great example of Somatics + Yin Yoga to be explained in further detail in the 40 hour SomaYin training February 13th-16th, 2026.

In this method, we work on releasing underlaying muscular tension with a Somatic exercise first. Like in this example, the backlift, works to release tension in the back of the body including the lower back, shoulder blade region and the neck. We also bring awareness to this area of the body and allow our minds to become focused before moving to the Yin hold, which compliments. In this case, it’s the Caterpillar, a passive forward fold. Now we gently lengthen the area that ideally has been released and we’re not holding any undue tension in the Yin posture.

The Somatic movements come from Thomas Hanna’s methods https://www.associationforhannasomaticeducation.com/learn-more
You will also be able to do these on your own for your own pain relief or to even just regain control and awareness of your muscles and/or weave them into other classes you may be teaching if you are a Yoga teacher.

The Yin pose breakdowns will leave you confident to teach this style of Yoga or to again just to gain the knowledge for your own practice.

Both of these practices have been transformative in my own Yoga practice and I can’t wait to share!

Only a few spots left. Hope you can join!
