Yin Yoga Teacher Training
Yin Yoga Teacher Training
Yin yoga has been growing in popularity as people increasingly seek balance in a fast-paced world. The chance to sink into stillness, to connect to your centre and to relax into rest is a potent practice.
Many people see Yin Yoga as a complement to a vinyasa practice, the yin to the yang, but it is also an entire practice in itself. This training will equip you, as a teacher and as a practitioner, to add elements of Yin to the cool down of your class or to teach complete sessions of Yin Yoga.

What our students say…
The Yin Teacher Training at Byron Yoga Centre offered so much clarity, depth and wisdom. The TCM teachings were shared in such a systematic and digestable way and weaved in with the teachings of the physical postures really smoothly. There was so much space and time to voth embody the practice and to experience sharing Yin to students.
The teachers are well rounded with wide range of knowledge. I love coming back knowing it’s a supportive and loving environment. I feel like I’m learning under the most perfect conditions.
Great to stay with people in such a beautiful environment! Go for it! You’ll love it!
Thank you for everything, all staff and teachers! I love this environment so much!
The Restorative Yoga Teacher Training is such a nourishing and nurturing course, that offers time and space to truly embody the restful qualities of the practice.
I feel confident to now deliver a rounded restorative class when I get home. I would recommend this course to others, I loved it!
I did my 200 HR teacher training here and it was seriously life changing. It is something I had wanted to tick off my bucket list as I have been doing yoga for years now. I finally took the plunge and am so proud of myself. It was a massive challenge, physically and mentally but so worth it. I couldn’t have done it without the support of the teachers and my fellow students. The centre is on the outskirts of town, making it feel removed from the buzz of Byron, but it is only a 10 min walk to town if we did want to grab a coffee, have a swim or explore. The food at the centre was awesome and I really feel like I took my yoga to the next level. Hats off to Byron Yoga Centre… just brilliant.
Pure love and gratitude for this sacred place.
I did my L1 Yoga Teacher Training , Yin Yoga, Certificate (current study) and weekend retreat with Byron Yoga Center. I couldn’t imagine a better place to deepen my understanding of yoga and my yoga path.
The teaching quality is outstanding, the whole place blends well into the nature, best vegan food in maybe Australia (I am biased?), and the pool really helps you relax, recharge and reset.
Recommendation to this divine plant with gorgeous people and lovely nature!
The instructors and retreat staff are what make this place on top off beautiful surrounds and an amazing Permaculture Garden. Whilst undertaking my yoga training and dealing with issues connected to my military service I was supported to ensure I met the requirements and also contributed substantially to my personal growth and resilience. The support from a number of the teachers was skilled and compassionate. Awesome 🙂 🙂 🙂
My wife did her level 1 yoga training here, loved the experience.
Found the fresh vegetables and salads grown in their own garden amazing.Magnesium saltwater pool very refreshing after a big day of yoga. Accomodation was pleasant and overall experience life changing, highly recommended.

Our menus are designed to be balanced, cleansing, and deeply nourishing, giving you the energy you need to sustain intensive days of training.

The result is toxin-free, nutrient-rich meals that taste as good as they make you feel.

As a teacher training student, you’ll have exclusive access to our 15 acres of retreat grounds. Stroll through 3 acres of organic fruit, vegetable, and herb gardens, swim in the solar-heated 20-metre magnesium mineral salt pool, or unwind in the tranquil Balé surrounded by banana trees. Or stay an extra night to really appreciate the facilities and explore Byron Bay.
