Yin Yoga Course in Rishikesh

Hatha Yoga. In Hatha, ‘Ha’ means ‘sun’, whereas ‘Tha’ means ‘moon’. You must be aware how moon cycles affect the water in the oceans, seas, and rivers. In the very same manner, the moon’s energy affects us all, as 70% of the human body is water. In the Yin Yoga Course in Rishikesh, you will learn all this in complete detail. 

In modern times, everybody is stressed, because of hectic schedules and work pressure. The moon energy can help you to remove the stressors from your life, reduce sleeplessness, and also helps you to focus. In the realm of Yin Yoga, the main focus is on how to increase the moon energy in your body. We accomplish this, by slowing down and holding the postures longer. In the Yin Yoga Course in India, you will learn the passive yoga style, which many yoga enthusiasts are still not aware of. 

At International Yoga Ashram, we teach complete surrender, when you are in the pose. When you surrender yourself in the pose, the body and mind stand in harmony with one another. In Yin yoga, the main focus is on connective tissue like fascia, ligaments, and joints. When you hold deep poses for longer, it can increase the elasticity and strength. You will also learn how to use props that support you in your Yin yoga journey. The location, Rishikesh, complements your journey in Yin Yoga. 

International is a Yoga Alliance® certified school, upholding the highest global standards in yoga education. This recognition honors our commitment to teaching with integrity, safety, and authenticity. It also affirms the sacred lineage of yoga we carry forward. Graduates are empowered to share this wisdom and teach worldwide with confidence and heart.
