100-Hour Yin Yoga & Sound Healing Teacher Training in Koh Phangan, Thailand

Over the course of 13 days, you'll work through a curriculum that covers yin yoga foundations, sound healing theory, and the practical art of teaching. The yin yoga component follows the principles laid out by Paul Grilley, Sarah Powers, and Bernie Clark, with a strong emphasis on functional alignment and working with your own skeletal structure. You'll learn all the classic yin poses, how to sequence intelligently, and how to use the meridians and Taoist elements to guide your classes. The sound healing side covers everything from the history and theory of sound, to playing singing bowls, gongs, and other instruments, and understanding how vibration affects the nervous system and cells.

The training is led by Manuela Sauter, alongside a team of facilitators, including Wendy and Bahanur. Wendy brings a background in Yin Yoga Therapy, sound therapy, reiki, and trauma-sensitive teaching. Bahanur is a breathwork coach and fitness instructor who teaches trauma release breathwork. Together, they create a supportive environment where you can practice teaching from early on, getting constructive feedback to refine your skills.

What sets this apart from a standard yin yoga teacher training is the focus on using yin as a therapeutic tool combined with sound. You'll not only learn the poses but also how to create a healing space, work with sound frequencies, and lead sunset circles with mantra chanting and cacao ceremonies. The venue, The Sanctuary, is a renowned retreat center on Haad Tien beach, known for its natural setting and its own in-house restaurant, which serves vegan meals.

The 100 hours are structured as a stand-alone module or as part of the 300-hour Yoga Alliance teacher training and the 700-hour Yin Yoga Therapy education. You'll leave with a certificate from The Body-Mind-Soul Centre, a registered yoga school with Yoga Alliance, plus diplomas in Yin Yoga Therapy, Sound Healing, and Cacao Ceremony facilitation. It's a practical, hands-on training that prepares you to teach with confidence and depth.
