ADVANCED YIN TRAINING: Yin Yoga for the Subtle Body
WITH JAEL POLNAC
(20 HOURS)(5.5 Online)
This training is for yoga teachers and dedicated students who would like to further investigate the energetic benefits of Yin Yoga and the ways that Yin postures can be used to balance Qi throughout the body.

Gain an understanding of Meridian Theory by delving more deeply into the energy channels
Study the organs related to those channels, including the holistic function and health of those organs
Deepen their understanding of Qi, including where it is housed in the body, how it moves through the body, and how specific Yin postures can work to harmonize Qi
Learn to sequence classes that target specific energy channels
Study the way that the integration of yang asanas, restorative postures, mindfulness, and breathwork can support the harmonization of energy in our bodies
Explore the relationship between Yin postures and the Chakras and consider sequencing for specific Chakras

JAEL POLNAC, ERYT, Certified CE Provider
Jael has practiced yoga for over 30 years, originally finding it to be a useful way to decompress from her career as an environmental attorney in Washington, DC. Upon moving to Saratoga Springs in 2010, she became a dedicated student at Yoga Mandali. In 2011, her yoga practice took on a whole new meaning after a serious skiing injury and difficult rehabilitation. Instead of being a fun workout and way to release stress, yoga became integral to healing both her body and her spirit; a process which led her to pursue her yoga teaching certification at Yoga Mandali in 2016.
