Yin Yoga & Energy Teacher Training III - Unit Yoga, Hamburg
(in German)
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." (Lao-tzu)
You have already completed many steps along your personal and unique Yin Yoga & Anatomy journey.
In this training, we complete the Yin Yoga practice and Yoga Anatomy and focus on energy work, Chi Flow and Yoga philosophy.
Welcome to Yin Yoga & Energy Teacher Training III
This 50-hour certified intensive yoga teaching programme (6 days) comprises 5 sections:
1. Yin Yoga Asanas
In this yin yoga teacher training course, we concentrate on the upper body eg. shoulder, scapula, shoulder/neck, wrists and as in level II, on the many variations of relevant poses. Furthermore, with special exercises, we begin to discover, experience and differentiate between blood, breath, nerves and chi flow within our own bodies.
2. Blood, Nerves, Breath, Chi
Heartbeat, blood circulation, nerve impulses, breath circulation are fluctuations within the body that can distract one's ability to sense the underlying chi flow and can often be misinterpreted by many experienced yoga students and teachers for the chi flow eg. blood circulation for chi flow.
We delve into the anatomical function of the blood, nerves breath and clarify with practical exercises, how to consciously feel blood, nerves, breath to enable us to place these sensations to the periphery.
What remains is chi.
3. Energy, Mantras & Philosophy
In this module, we begin our journey into energy work, mantras & yoga philosophy and slowly become familiar with the teachings of reincarnation, karma, the 3 realms, Patanjali's sutras, tantric chakra teachings, nadis (meridian theory) & mantra work.
Here is where we discover the key to our true spiritual growth.
4. Upper Body Anatomy - Analyse, Tests & Passive Assists
In YYTT III, we learn the muscle groups of the upper body, their function and explore in detail various aspects eg. rotator cuff, scapula etc.
We analyse compression and tension of the shoulder joint and explain and show it's relevance to yang yoga asanas (Downward Facing Dog, Warrior), to demonstrate how individual bone structure not only limits and affects our Yin Yoga asana practice.
5. Meditation & Bija Mantra
In Modules III and IV we practice chakra meditations, SoHam/HamSa meditations and/or Bija Mantras for an hour every morning. We use this practice as an intensive preparation for the asana practice making our energetic-emotional body “sing”.

““The anatomy class is so incredibly funny and exciting! You can never get enough of it....
Yin Yoga III also went mentally really deep (not always funny😉, but always more exciting)... Supported by all these loving people all around, a very enriching experience.
On a journey of discovery for body and mind with Yin Yoga... Exciting, resistance, love, sadness, anger, confidence, peace, etc.... All words that come to mind. It’s worth it!!! Because at the end, calm returns at some point, an incredible peace within the heart that you endeavour to pass on...
Om shanti shanti shanti”

““The Yin Yoga Teacher Training with Markus meets the highest quality standards! You not only learn about anatomy, yin, philosophy, energy, asanas, etc., but you also get to know yourself more and how to deal with yourself better, both on a physical level and on a mental and spiritual level. With all of this knowledge, I teach with much more confidence and can give students so much more in class than before. The training is put together with so much know-how, passion and love that it was absolutely the best training I have ever had. Thank you so much!”

““The connection in Level 3 from the anatomical to the energetic, including the Yin self-practice as well as extensive meditations and energy exploration exercises, and also numerous anatomical tests, was a remarkable enrichment for me personally as well as a yoga teacher, which I evolved noticeably in the days following the teacher training: a deeper connection to myself as well as a new quality and sense of security in teaching - a wonderful experience! Thank you very much! I’m already looking forward to Level IV and V!”
