I first experienced Yin Yoga at a retreat in Ibiza maybe 20 years ago. Well, I would say it was more of a holiday than a retreat -- half the group went to Pascha on the Thursday night with the promise that the following morning would be "very relaxing and you may want to nap afterwards anyway" as we would "do some yin".
It was very relaxing indeed.
I looked for it back in London and I found it in Norman's classes at Indaba. Right by my stressful job in central London. I got to go every week. What a blessing.
And then maybe 12 years later I did his training as my first round of yin teacher training and it was great. And I have attended a few workshops since too.
He's very recently self published this book. Seek it out it's worth it.
And seek norman out too. He's got a proper 200 hours training in yin coming which I would have done in a heartbeat if it had been around back in the day.
