Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative style of yoga that targets the deep connective tissues—like fascia, ligaments, and joints—rather than the muscles. Rooted in ancient Chinese Taoist philosophy and Hatha Yoga traditions, Yin Yoga focuses on long-held passive postures, typically between 3 to 5 minutes or more.
Unlike dynamic styles like Vinyasa or Ashtanga, where movement and flow are emphasized, Yin invites you into stillness. It teaches patience, awareness, and surrender — qualities often overlooked in modern life.
By holding poses longer, you allow time for deep physical opening, emotional release, and energetic rebalancing. It’s not just about flexibility — it’s about healing from within.
Sage House Yoga stands out by offering small batch sizes, individual mentorship, and a deeply nurturing environment to help you truly embody the art of Yin Yoga.
If you feel a calling to go deeper, a Yin Yoga Teacher Training Course (TTC) might be your next step.
At Sage House Yoga, our Yin Yoga TTC offers:
Anatomy of connective tissue, meridian theory, Yin philosophy, sequencing, and meditation techniques.
Learn from passionate, highly skilled teachers with years of experience in Yin and holistic healing.
Upon completion, you’ll receive a globally recognized certificate to teach Yin Yoga anywhere in the world.
The course is not only professional but also deeply personal, focusing on your growth as a teacher and as a practitioner.
Our program offers a holistic approach to yoga that goes beyond just physical practice.

Yin Yoga is a slow, meditative style of yoga where poses are held for longer periods (typically 3–5 minutes or more). It targets the deep connective tissues like fascia, ligaments, and joints rather than just the muscles. Yin Yoga helps improve flexibility, energy flow, emotional balance, and overall stillness.
Absolutely!
Yin Yoga is perfect for beginners because it doesn’t require extreme flexibility or strength. The practice focuses on being present, breathing deeply, and surrendering into the poses — ideal for anyone new to yoga or mindfulness practices.
In Hatha or Vinyasa yoga, the focus is on dynamic movements and muscle engagement.
In Yin Yoga, you move slowly into deep, passive stretches, hold them for several minutes, and focus more on stillness, patience, and inner awareness.
It complements more active, “yang” styles beautifully.
No — Yin Yoga is about much more than stretching.
While deep tissue stretching happens, the true essence of Yin Yoga is energetic balancing, emotional release, and cultivating mindfulness. It’s a form of self-healing that nourishes your mind, body, and spirit.
Yes, definitely!
The slow, meditative nature of Yin Yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping your body move out of “fight or flight” stress mode and into deep relaxation. Many students report feeling calmer, lighter, and more emotionally balanced after a Yin session.
