Yin Yoga Teacher Training In Mysore

What Is Yin Yoga? - Mysore Yoga School

Yin Yoga is a type of yoga that is meditative and slow and involves spending more time on postures longer periods, 2/5 min or more. Yin Yoga is an alternative to dynamic or muscular (Yang) yoga, since it focuses on the deep connective tissues such as fascia, ligaments, joints, and bones, not on the muscles. Based on the ancient philosophy of the yogic tradition and inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Yin Yoga practices the body energy channels (meridians) to allow balance, flexibility, and well-being. The discipline also promotes calmness, patience and consciousness, thus enabling the meditators to look within themselves and watch the physical experiences as well as the thinking patterns.

The postures of the yin yoga are mostly done either in a sitting position or lying down and are done with a relaxed muscle. The practice is available to all levels because support with the body is often provided with the help of props, including bolsters, blocks, and blankets, among others. This mild, but profound method will contribute to the removal of chronic tension, enhancement of the mobility of joints, and stimulation of the circulation of deeper tissues.

Yogic Food And Accommodation - Mysore Yoga School

Students enjoy clean, comfortable accommodation with AC and non-AC room options, attached bathrooms, and daily housekeeping. Our nourishing vegetarian yogic meals are freshly prepared using local ingredients to support digestion, energy levels, and mental clarity throughout the course.

Yogic Food

At Mysore Yoga School, yoga is practiced as a sacred discipline of mind, body, and spirit. Ancient yogic wisdom teaches that the mind is shaped by the food we consume. Since yoga is the path of mastering the mind, purity in diet becomes essential.

Yogic texts describe three types of food. Tamasic food—stale, spoiled, or impure—creates inertia and dullness. Rajasic food, which is overly spicy, sour, salty, or stimulating, leads to restlessness and agitation. Sattvic food, which is fresh, nourishing, and naturally balanced, promotes clarity, peace, and steadiness of mind.

For those walking the yogic path, a simple, sattvic, and natural diet, practiced alongside yoga, supports inner harmony, concentration, and spiritual growth.

Accommodation

At Mysore Yoga School, yogic living is practiced in its true spirit. A peaceful and pure environment, along with sattvic and herbal nourishment, supports the seeker’s path toward self-discipline and inner awareness. Rooted in ancient yogic traditions and aligned with Yoga Alliance principles, the school offers a way of life that encourages harmony with nature and simplicity in living.

The accommodation is clean, calm, and thoughtfully arranged to support rest and inner balance, providing all essential comforts for daily life in a yogic setting.

Facilities Include:

  • Attached bathrooms

  • Hot and cold water
  • Wi-Fi access
