Jonathan Yang

100hr Yin Yoga Hybrid Teacher Training

Learn the art of teaching and creating a safe and supportive Yin Yoga class suitable for all skeletal variations and health conditions. Learn the sacred formula to truly hold space and allow people to unravel and disentangle from whatever they need using open language & mindful prop placement.

Gain the wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine and buddhism to intelligently and creatively express and deliver a holistic offering that ensures your future students both feel calm and centred. 

This course is now delivered in a hybrid method making pursuing your passion even more affordable and accessible! With half of the training delivered online and the other half in a retreat style setting on the Gold Coast in a place we like to call Paradise Valley.

Accommodation options are available to stay in close proximity to the training centre & enjoy the tranquility of living in complete serenity during your immersion. Eat. Sleep. Yoga. Repeat.

At the Essence of Living Academy on the Gold Coast Australia we are deeply dedicated to training outstanding yin yoga teachers. Our teachers are well-respected and sought after in the yoga industry. Essence of Living yin yoga teachers are trained in a respectful manner in order to honour the traditions of this practice while also remaining considerate of the ever-evolving yoga world.

The Essence of Living Yin Yoga (100HR) training takes place on the stunning Gold Coast, Australia. Our training program truly over delivers, providing you with 40hrs of face-to-face learning, along with an extensive online learning and assessment component that can be done anywhere, anytime. Find out course dates, requirements and a course overview below.

Please note: in order to teach Yin Yoga you must have your 200hr Yoga certification.

WHAT OUR graduate STUDENTs SAY

I completed my initial yoga teacher training with Michelle at Essence of Living in 2014. Since then, I have completed five additional teacher trainings with EOL Academy across the principles of yoga, pilates, meditation and myofascial release.

I have travelled far and wide exploring these ancient and modern practices. Almost ten years have passed, now practising ashtanga yoga and zazen meditation.

Today, I still sincerely advocate these trainings with Michelle. Michelle is a gifted being and very talented in her art.

She has this phenomenal way of lifting and inspiring you, breaking down your walls, and guiding you to reach your potential.

Michelle is the ultimate cheerleader. She walks the path of service, empowerment and humility.

Thus far, my journey has taken me, from teaching in gyms, studios, community centres, travelled Europe teaching on yachts, to now facilitating in schools, at a world-class health retreat nestled up in the Gold Coast hinterland and recently starting my own YouTube channel @amyletizia.

Touching many hearts, and that is just one person’s story from EOL Alumni.

If you are wanting to become a teacher, if you are simply inspired by the disciplines to deepen your knowledge, if you want to walk a path of understanding, peace and truth.

Then I wouldn’t miss the opportunity.

Forever in awe and devotion of you Michelle Cassidy.
