Blending anatomy, philosophy, and practice into one grounded system, this training replaces guesswork with clarity, confidence, and skill – so you can teach Yin with integrity and finally offer more than just flow.
Yin Yoga is the quietest practice - and the most misunderstood. But for teachers who understand its depth, it becomes a powerful second language - one that creates more impact in class, and more opportunity in your career.
Do you wish you could...
Hold space with confidence – instead of wondering if silence is enough?
Teach Yin with more than just poses – and offer a deeply embodied experience grounded in anatomy, energetics, and philosophy?
Go beyond stretch cues – and help your students meet themselves through stillness and sensation?
Speak about the nervous system – without sounding like you're reading from a textbook?
Trust your intuition in a class setting – while staying rooted in knowledge and lineage?
After the very first lesson, you will...
Teach Yin with clarity and calm – no more guessing, no more vague cueing
Answer student questions with confidence – rooted in anatomy, philosophy, and presence
Hold space for nervous system repair, not just relaxation
See why Yin isn’t passive – it’s precise – and know how to teach it that way

"I’ve done an in-house Yin TT before, but left not knowing enough to teach. I was so disappointed. I am so glad my friend recommended Zahir's Yin course. So so clear and insightful. I'm so grateful 🙏🏽"-

A course for teachers who want to move beyond memorised cues and into true embodied teaching - grounded in science, enriched by tradition, and made simple to share.
Most yoga teachers were never taught how to truly hold space – or how to teach Yin with depth and clarity.
This training bridges that gap.
You’ll finally understand the art of stillness – where anatomy, philosophy, and energy meet – and know how to guide your students with purpose, presence, and confidence.
Whether you’re new to Yin or have been winging it with borrowed scripts, this course gives you the tools to teach with integrity – and create the kind of classes students remember.

What does the course cover?
This course isn’t just a knowledge dump - it’s a carefully designed progression.
You’ll start with an understanding of how to breathe, in yoga and in life, and from there, we strip away the myths and rebuild a complete understanding of Yin Yoga from the inside out.
This 50-hour program covers:
✓ The Science of Yin - Why long holds reset your nervous system, and how to explain breathing without sounding like a textbook
✓ The Myths Debunked - What your YTT got wrong about stillness (and how to teach Yin with clarity, not confusion)
✓ Practical Sequencing - How to design Yin classes that guide students into presence, not just poses
✓ The Philosophy - Where Yin comes from, and how to honour tradition without limiting your voice
✓ Breathing Mechanics - The neuroscience of breath work and why it's fundamental to transformation
"Zahir’s approach to teaching Yin is unlike anything I’ve experienced. He brings depth without overcomplicating, and somehow makes the most subtle aspects feel powerful. Now I feel calm, clear, and confident guiding students through stillness - and they’re feeling it too.”
Lou - Yoga Teacher

FAQ's
Do I need to be a certified yoga teacher to take this course?
This training is designed for yoga teachers who want to add Yin to their offering with confidence and depth. If you're a serious Yin practitioner who wants to understand the science behind what's happening in your body, you're welcome too - but the teaching focus will be most valuable if you're already working with students.
How long do I have access to the course?
Lifetime. Once you enroll, the course is yours forever. Learn at your own pace, revisit modules whenever you need a refresher, and access updates as we add them.
When can I start?
Right now. You get instant access the moment you enroll. No waiting for course start dates or cohorts - dive in today and start teaching Yin this week.
Will I actually be able to teach Yin after completing this course?
Yes. You'll have everything you need: the science behind long holds, pose breakdowns, sequencing principles, breath work integration, and the language to explain it all without sounding like a textbook. Hundreds of teachers have gone from uncertain to confidently teaching Yin classes within days of starting this training.
What if I've never taught Yin before - is this too advanced?
Not at all. This course is specifically designed for teachers who are either new to Yin or have been winging it with borrowed scripts. We start from the fundamentals and build your understanding methodically. No prior Yin teaching experience required.
How long does the course take to complete?
The full program is 50 hours of content, broken into bite-sized lessons you can complete at your own pace. Most teachers work through it over 2-4 weeks while simultaneously trying poses and concepts in their own practice. You could binge it in a weekend if you wanted, or spread it over months - it's entirely self-paced.
What format is the training - video, text, or both?
All of the above. You'll get video lessons, written breakdowns, pose libraries, quizzes, and downloadable resources. The content is designed for different learning styles, so you can watch, read, or do both.
Will I get a certificate when I finish?
Yes. Upon completion, you'll receive a certificate for 50-Hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training that you can add to your credentials and share with students or studios.
What's your refund policy?
100% money-back guarantee for 7 days. If you start the course and decide it's not for you, just email us within 7 days and we'll refund you in full. No questions asked, no hoops to jump through.
Is this price for real, or will there be hidden fees?
£99 is the complete price. No hidden fees, no upsells, no payment plans required. One payment, lifetime access to everything. This is genuinely 75% off the usual £399 price - but only for Black Friday.
When does this Black Friday price end?
When the countdown timer hits zero. After that, the course returns to £399. If you're seeing the £99 price, the deal is still live - but it won't be for long.
I'm already teaching Yin - will this course still be valuable?
If you're teaching from scripts or feel uncertain when students ask "why" questions, yes. This course gives you the anatomical and philosophical foundations to teach Yin with authority and adapt to what your students actually need, rather than just following a sequence you memorised.
Can I teach Yin classes at studios after completing this?
Yes. Many studios accept CPD certifications for specialised styles like Yin. This 50-hour accredited training demonstrates you've invested in proper education beyond your 200-hour YTT. Some studios may have their own requirements, but this training positions you as a qualified Yin teacher.
