From Yoga Teacher to Embodied Facilitator
There is a difference between knowing a practice and knowing how to hold space for someone else's experience.
A great Yin or Restorative teacher isn't simply counting breaths or cueing postures.
They're listening.
They're observing.
They're adapting.
They're creating safety.
They're creating space.
They're present enough to guide without forcing.
And they're grounded enough to let the practice unfold.
The Embodied Facilitator is designed to help you cultivate exactly that.

‣ A deeper understanding of Yin and Restorative Yoga
