Yin Yoga 50HR Teacher Training Urban Immersion

This training is Yacep and YA approved for certification and CPD and member upgrades.

International Yin Yoga Teacher Trainer Mel McLaughlin from the Yin space will be leading us for this immersion into all things Yin.

An ideal course for any current or aspiring yoga teacher to attend and a deeper dive for students wishing only to expand their yin-formation and practice!

What's on offer urban training style?

Join us this OCTOBER 2025 for a full time hybrid teacher training urban-style with Melanie McLaughlin for her inspiring 50 hour Yin Teacher Training programme. We will slip off the radar for a 4 days of in-person yin “chill-pill” and a minimum of 5 hours of pre recorded self study. Exploring our ‘Yin-sides’ of deep immersion into the other side of the yoga coin, we are keeping it small and intimate and you will be fully versed in the art of teaching yin when you are finished. We answer all the “whys” and practice twice to bookend the day and layer the intellectual information with somatic experience.

“There is a yin and yang to everything in the universe. They are like two sides to the same coin, one cannot exist without the other and they compliment each other” PG

Join us in Sydney CBD for this unique opportunity to explore your “yin-side” over a 5-day hybrid urban teacher training in Sydney. This course is open to those who are either already 200-hour qualified yoga teachers who want to deepen their knowledge and practice of Yin yoga while cultivating teaching skills that will allow them to facilitate this practice for their students, OR dedicated students wanting to dive in and learn more for their own personal practice and enjoyment.

Yin yoga is growing in popularity, largely in response to what has become a very “yang”-dominated yoga culture. People are discovering the benefits of a quieter, more still practice – not just in their physical bodies, but also in their nervous and energy systems.
