Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Spain

5 February 2026 · By PIERRE

Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Spain
From 5 to 12 April 2026, we gather at Alaya Retreat Centre in Spain for a dedicated week of Yin Yoga Teacher Training. This is not simply a training. It is a pause. A return to the quieter dimensions of practice. In a world that moves quickly, Yin invites us to slow down. To listen. To stay. To feel what unfolds when we soften instead of pushing.

Why Yin?

Yin Yoga offers something increasingly rare — time. Time in each posture. Time with the breath. Time to observe sensation without urgency. For teachers, Yin deepens your ability to guide others with clarity and steadiness. For committed practitioners, it refines your understanding from the inside out. This week is designed for both those wishing to teach and those longing to explore the practice more fully.

A Thoughtful Collaboration

This training is organised in collaboration with Daphné, founder of Serenityoga. Her approach balances structure and sensitivity — integrating meridian theory, functional anatomy, energetic awareness, and embodied experience. The learning environment she creates is both grounded and deeply human. Participants will explore:
  • The foundations of Yin postures
  • Intelligent sequencing
  • Meridian lines and energetic pathways
  • The art of guiding others with presence
  • Philosophy and the subtler dimensions of practice 
Each day unfolds with rhythm — structured study balanced with spacious integration. (Please note: the training will be conducted entirely in French.)

The Setting: Alaya Retreat Centre, Spain

Alaya offers warmth in every sense. Whitewashed walls. Natural light. Palm trees and open skies. Vegetarian meals prepared with care. Spaces like this support practice in quiet ways. They soften the nervous system. They hold the container. They allow learning to settle deeply. Pricing includes training, accommodation, and meals:
  • Double room: €1950
  • Single room: €2350
  • Suite (incl. jacuzzi): €2650
(Flights not included.)

For Those Who Feel the Call

Whether you wish to teach Yin Yoga or simply embody it more fully, this week is an invitation to deepen. To study with intention. To practice with patience. To return home with clarity. If you feel drawn to the quieter dimensions of yoga, this may be your moment to step forward gently. Learn more about the Yin Yoga Teacher Training →
