In 2022 I was very fortunate to follow an in person yin yoga workshop with Norman in London, Indaba studio. It was my first in person workshop since a few years due to you know why. The workshop made me realise how much I had missed being surrounded by other yoga practitioners and teachers. Norman is a lovely human being, very interesting, with lots of experience and he possesses a great teaching method and voice. I was instantly at ease and felt very comfortable being in his class.
This year I decided to give myself more time for self practice as well as following workshops and I booked a 5 day yin yoga training with Norman in London. It has been my best decision this year! The course started on a Sunday in July, in north London. There were first circle introductions of the group and teachers, Norman & his wonderful assistant Cobi. I didn’t remember everyone’s name, but tried to train my brain during the 5 days also by speaking with most people in the breaks.
Each day, the course was in 2 parts: before and after the lunch break. And we had some breaks every 1,5 hours as well. The location was very bright and quiet with lots of props, what you need when practicing yin 🙂 Norman had invited other teachers to teach their specialties, such as anatomy, chinese medicine and meridians, meditation, … It was very intense as a lot of knowledge to pack in 5 days, but luckily we got to practice yin yoga as well, so the balance was just right. The long yin yoga classes were amazing for me. Practicing poses with and without props, with guidance or mostly silent, it was a wonderful experience and very relaxing as well.
Meeting the London (and some like myself, foreign) yin yoga practitioners was very enriching, it was great to exchange about our own practice or teaching methods. After five days, it was hard to leave and go back to the ‘real world’, but knowing that I can go back to do the 9 day yin yoga teacher training is a great motivator to keep on practicing and teaching and paying it forward. I’m very grateful to Norman for sharing his experience and skills as well as to the other teachers and participants.
Last week I was lucky to be able to attend a 5 day training with the wonderful teacher 
AcroYoga blends the wisdom of yoga, the dynamic power of acrobatics, and the loving kindness of healing arts. These three lineages form the foundation of a practice that cultivates trust, playfulness, and community.
