Join our joyful group in Málaga and get inspired by the healing, gentle and profound world of Yin. You will also get many tools outside the mat, to your own life.
FEEDBACK:“I really appreciate everything that I learned. I have now more tools, not only about the variety of the different asanas, but the correlation with the meaning and intention related to the Tao teachings. I find very useful all the information about the meridians, the Chinese Medicine, and the different energy theories. I will definitely incorporate them in my daily personal practice, which makes it not only a deeper but also richer in so many ways.
Laura is a great inspiration of the Yin energy herself. She guides you to the postures, and during the practices she does it in a lovely, caring and professional way at the same time. It is easy to see her extended knowledge and preparation about the topic which she shares beautifully.” Sandra
“This was a truly holistic package to the world of Yin, which opened up both the physical and the mental side. It was well created combining lectures and practice. Special thanks for very clear asana teaching. As a teacher, you are very professional, appreciative and an great example of what a yoga teacher should be like. You give the student space and mercy!” Sari
“Laura’s teaching was very knowledgeable, and the training was well planned. She was also wonderfully inspiring – I liked her gentle and honest teaching and her own experiences. Again, I learned to be a little more merciful to myself.” Jasmin
“Thank you for the wonderful training. The world of Yin opened up very deeply to me, and although my journey is just beginning, I’m excited to have embarked on this path.” Tua
“The training was an interesting dive into the world of Yin. Laura was very empathetic, positive, and encouraging. I found the Yin philosophy and the spiritual part of the course impressive. The depth of the course was a positive surprise for me.” Riikka
“You’re a knowledgeable teacher. The material was very good and profound, and I use it a lot.” Anneli
ZEN STUDIO will organize in November an intensive but comprehensive 30-hours Yin Yoga Teacher Training in Málaga city. It is based on the teachings of the founders and pioneers of Yin. The training is certified by the International Yoga Alliance (YACEP). IN THE TRAINING you will learn the fundamentals of functional Yin, its theory and philosophy, basics of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Five Element theory and the Organ-meridian health, mindfulness in Yin, Yin asanas with variations, and the principles of teaching and creating Yin classes. PRACTICAL TRAINING is based on the foundations of Paul Grilley’s Functional Yin and Anatomy, Sarah Powers’ teachings on Insight Yoga and Mindfulness, and Jo Phee’s teachings on Chinese medicine and anatomy. These merge with the other international Yin Teacher Trainings and numerous workshops over ten years, as well as Laura’s experience in teaching Yin, her insight and long-term devoted practices of meditation and mindfulness. IN-PERSON studying over a weekend is an enjoyable and effective way to study, as you will join a small, inspired group, participate in asana workshops and 10 hours of Yin classes, and learn the many possibilities and depths of Yin. After the training you will have a good knowledge of yin, teaching Yin, and creating and sequencing different Yin classes.

BIO – LAURA HEIKKINENLaura (E-RYT200 Hatha, RYT300 Yin & Fascia, YACEP) is an international yoga teacher specialized in Yin Yoga Teacher Training.
She focuses in Yin, Yin&Yang, Hatha, Traditional Chinese medicine, Buddhism, and meditation.
Laura has been practicing yoga and meditation around the world since 1995. Finding this path totally transformed her life, but it took time, and taught her patience and humility.
Mindfully she continues to explore yoga, study meditation, practice Buddhism, learn new, and gets inspired by different things with curiosity, passion, and gratitude.
She has been teaching yoga in Finland, in China, and in Spain, where she now works in Málaga as a founder of Zen Studio. She provides Yin yoga teacher training, meditation, and well-being services in Málaga area, abroad and online.
She started to practice Yin 13 years ago, and little by little she found out the beauty of the healing nature of Yin in her own life, mentally, physically, and emotionally. She wanted to learn more and committed to study it intensively.
In her Yin Teacher Training, she studied Yin and mindfulness at Sarah Powers’ Insight Yoga Institute; Yin, Chinese medicine, and anatomy at Jo Phee’s Yinspiration; Yin, Chinese medicine and fascia at Helena Chacon Muno’s Yogakula; and Embodied Yin in Helsinki.
Laura has enhanced her Yin teaching skills in numerous Yin workshops, including those with Yin’s founders Paul and Susie Grilley, then Victor Chng, Simon Low and Eija Tervonen, Sebastian Pucelle and Murielle Burellier, and with many other teachers.
She is very devoted to Buddhism, mindfulness, and Eastern traditions. In Shanghai she studied the basics of Taoism, energy and relaxation techniques and Medical Qigong in Shanghai Qigong Research Institute.
She has also done hatha teacher training in Kerala, India in 2012 (RYT 200 Hatha), after travelling around the world for yoga.
Laura combines these experiences and training in her teaching and brings to Yin a holistic, mindful approach to live balanced life and to cultivate well-being, love and happiness, in body, mind, and spirit.
