All YUJMU Yin Yoga Teacher Training programs follow a carefully structured curriculum consisting of lectures, guided practice, hands-on teaching experience, self-study, and all the school teacher-approved digital training materials you need to succeed.

Each level of training is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of Yin Yoga, with Level 2 building upon the themes and topics covered in Level 1. The 200-hour YTT combines Level 1 and Level 2 to offer a complete Yin Yoga teacher training experience.

For a detailed breakdown of the curriculum and what to expect, check out our syllabus above.

Absolutely! Upon completion, you will receive a recognized certificate endorsed by YUJMU, as well as a YACEP Yoga Alliance Certificate. However, if you need or would like to acquire a Yoga Alliance-approved certification to meet the requirements of particular studios, our 200-hour certification training is fully endorsed by Yoga Alliance (highly recommended).

When you complete any of our YUJMU Yin Yoga Teacher Training programs, you won't just be ready to teach Yin Yoga. You'll be a wholly unique Yin Yoga Teacher based on who you are… because that’s exactly what the world needs — not another “cookie-cutter” Yoga Teacher.

We've also got the inside scoop on what studios are looking for because we've managed them ourselves. We're here to guide you, provide feedback, and help you craft your path as a Yin Yoga teacher.

YUJMU and TJ are Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Providers (YACEP) and an RYS200 registered with Yoga Alliance.

You can reach out to Yoga Alliance to best determine your specific credit requirements and how to apply for them, and we are here to assist and coordinate to help you make your Yogi dreams a reality.

Absolutely! Whether you're stepping onto the mat for the first time or have been practicing for years, our training provides a solid foundation in Yin Yoga and its teachings, so you can become a confident Yin Yogi.

If you already have a yoga certification and wish to specialize in Yin Yoga, advance your skills to further support your students, or deepen your own practice, our 100hr Level 1 will give you the ultimate insight into the world of Yin.

But if you’re like many of our yogi community, hungry for deep knowledge and as much experience as you can, our rare yin-focused 200-hour training is highly recommended. It’s also one of few in the world, so not to be missed if you’re a YIN-fanatic.

While we strongly encourage you to attend every session to get the most out of the experience, we get it – life happens.

Depending on what and how much content you will miss, we can often find a way to catch you up. If you have queries or concerns about missing part of the training, please reach out to see what is possible.

Yes! We currently offer our biggest discount available to those who register as a pair with a friend, or who register in advance to catch our early-bird pricing. Further discounts may apply for groups of more than two people; please inquire for more information.

We cannot currently offer scholarships, but this is something we hope to offer in the future.

100%! Focusing on Yin Yoga can be a highly rewarding path for your yoga career. Yin Yoga, with its profound and effective stress-relief techniques, serves as a powerful antidote to the pressures of today's world.

Teaching us active relaxation and the ability to release tension from our bodies, there’s no wonder it is an increasingly sought-after style of yoga around the world! As a certified Yin Yoga teacher, you'll be perfectly positioned to meet this growing demand and share this subtle yet potent practice with others.

Some of our trainings come with full accommodation, while others are non-residential and include training materials and daily teachings only. Simply select your desired training above to find specific details for each location.

Most of our training is carried out during the daily schedule, but we also provide additional training material for those who want to dive deeper into self-study and highly encourage setting aside some time for reflection during the training.

You will not be required to submit copious amounts of homework, however, you can expect to be given short reflective journaling, reading, and essay-writing exercises. This is to ensure you meet the requirements of the certification and to enhance your understanding and depth of the topics we discuss in our sessions.

TJ brings a unique blend of skills to the table with a background in school teaching, fine art, and yoga studio management. His trifecta of expertise provides a fresh and diverse perspective when it comes to teaching and instructing Yin.

We focus on a deeply embodied experience through consecutive-day immersions that let you not just understand Yin, but feel it deep in your bones. While many trainings offer a more flexible, modular approach, we believe in consecutive-day immersions to truly grasp the Yin vibes — without juggling work and training like a dancing cat…

The best part? Our premium materials. Our visuals are like your trusty sidekick, helping you wrap your head around those nuanced concepts and serving as valuable references throughout your teaching career. Trust us; you won't find materials this good anywhere else. They're the cat's pajamas!

And here’s the thing… we're not just dabbling in Yin Yoga; it's our one true love. It’s ALL we do. We don't do other yoga styles because, well, we're all about that Yin life.

Yin Trainings are popping up left and right, but not all of them have that true Yin heart. So, we leave it up to you to decide what that means to you…
