Experience this 100 Hour Yin Yoga & Sound Healing Teacher Training in Goa at Shreem Yogshala which is a deeply transformative journey.

If you are looking to deepen your practice, ready to teach, and to be transformed — this training is your calling.

This yin yoga teacher training in Goa goes beyond physical postures and offers a rich, layered curriculum that moves through the physical, energetic, and vibrational dimensions of healing practice.
  • Origins of Yin Yoga — from Taoist yoga to Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers
  • Yin vs. Yang: understanding the balance of effort and ease in a complete practice
  • The connective tissue system — fascia, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and joints
  • How Yin postures target the deeper layers of the body unavailable to muscular yoga
  • The importance of time — why three to five minutes in a pose changes everything
  • The importance of ‘finding your edge’ — working with sensation, not pain
  • Meridian theory: Traditional Chinese Medicine pathways and their relationship with Yin sequences
  • The Five Element theory — Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water — and seasonal sequencing
  • Yin postures for each meridian pair and organ system
  • 50+ Yin postures studied in depth: alignment, props, timing, and variations
  • Safe entry and exit — honouring the ‘rebound’ as part of the practice
  • Usage of props for safety: bolsters, blocks, blankets, yoga belts
  • Adapting postures for different bodies, ages, injuries, and special populations
  • Yin for the spine: forward folds, backbends, twists, and side body
  • Yin for the hips, pelvis, and lower body — the most transformative region
  • Yin for the upper body, shoulders, and neck — the area most people carry tension
  • How to build a complete Yin Yoga class — opening, body, closing, integration
  • Thematic sequencing: meridian-based, chakra-based, seasonal, and intention-led
  • The art of verbal cueing in Yin — inviting rather than directing

  • Managing emotional releases in class — what to do when students cry or feel overwhelmed
  • Integrating sound healing naturally into the arc of a Yin class
  • Peer teaching practicum with constructive feedback
  • The science of sound — frequency, vibration, resonance, and entrainment
  • History of sound healing across cultures: India, Tibet, Egypt, Greece, and indigenous traditions
  • The voice as the first instrument — toning, overtone singing, and mantra
  • Tibetan singing bowls — history, metallurgy, playing techniques (striking, rim playing, layering)
  • Other healing instruments: koshi chimes, rain stick, tibetan bells, ocean drum etc.
  • How sound affects the nervous system, brainwaves, and the body’s fluid systems
  • How to hold a sound bath — logistics, space, comfort, and ethics
  • Designing a complete sound journey: intention, arc, climax, and integration
  • Pairing specific bowls and instruments with Yin postures and meridian sequences
  • Using sound to deepen Yoga Nidra, Savasana, and restorative transitions
  • Creating chakra-specific sound protocols — frequencies and intentions
  • Live sound healing practice sessions — playing, receiving, and facilitating
  • Contraindications and safety considerations in sound healing
  • The seven chakras — locations, qualities, imbalances, and healing approaches
  • Mapping chakras to Yin postures: which poses open which energy centres
  • Chakra-specific sound frequencies
  • Energy anatomy : understanding prana, nadis, and the subtle body
  • Integrating chakra awareness into class themes and Yin sequences

  • Fascia: the body’s connective web — how Yin releases fascial holding patterns
  • The autonomic nervous system — how Yin and sound activate the parasympathetic response

  • Common injuries and contraindications: lower back, knees, hips, and neck
