This is where ancient wisdom becomes lived experience.
Our signature training weaves the timeless wisdom of the Five Elements with Yin Yoga, AcuYin, Qi Gong, Chinese Medicine, Science, Philosophy, Food Therapy and Elemental Psychology.
Rather than learning each modality in isolation, you’ll discover how they speak to one another, and how to bring them together into a more intuitive, intelligent and deeply embodied way of living, practicing and working with others.
EACH WEEKEND IMMERSION IS 15HRS CEP ACCREDITED WITH YOGA ALLIANCE + AN ADDITIONAL 15HRS OF ACCREDITED ONLINE STUDY & INTEGRATION.

The Art of Nourishment
Journey into Earth through the archetype of the Nurturer and explore our relationship with nourishment, support, stability and overthinking.

Vision in Motion
Explore Wood as the force that gives us vision, direction and the capacity to move forward. Journey through its archetype, the Liver and Gallbladder, anger and frustration, elemental patterns and meridian pathways while discovering what happens when Qi becomes stagnant or direction is lost.

Lead Trainer
Bree Naomee
For more than 15 years, Bree Naomee has guided people back to balance through the wisdom of Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and holistic health. Guided by a Taoist philosophy and a deep respect for the body's innate intelligence, her work weaves together ancient wisdom with modern understanding to help people reconnect with their true nature.
Over the past decade, Bree has facilitated retreats, teacher trainings, workshops, and mentoring programs for students around the world. Through these immersive experiences, she recognised that many people longed to study this work but were unable to attend in-person trainings due to family, work, finances, or location. This training was created to make that same depth of learning more accessible.
Rather than simply teaching Yin Yoga, Bree developed The Elemental Method—an integrative approach that combines Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the Five Elements into one practical framework for understanding the body, mind, emotions, and energy. Her teachings invite students to move beyond memorising sequences and techniques, towards embodying the principles that create lasting transformation for themselves and those they serve.
Alongside her work as an educator, Bree is an Integrative Health Coach, retreat facilitator, and author of 5 Elements with Yin and ReGENERATION. Her approach draws from studies in Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Gene Keys, holistic health, and the psycho-emotional aspects of the Five Elements, creating a learning experience that is both deeply practical and profoundly transformational.
Yoga Alma is a Registered Yoga School with Yoga Alliance and an approved Continuing Education Provider (YACEP). Bree's work has also been recognised by respected Yin Yoga teacher Bernie Clark, with further information available on his website.

TRANSPARENT DETAILS
Clarity Before
Commitment
We believe every intensive training should feel completely transparent from day one. Find straightforward answers about our 2-day immersive schedule, certification validity, and personal practice requirements.
Can I truly master this knowledge in just 2 days?
To be quite honest, NO! This work isn’t designed to be learnt in two days and then forgotten. Our signature curriculum has been intentionally created to unfold through experience, practice and integration over time.
The two full training days give us the opportunity to go deep into experiential learning. From there, your learning continues through post-study modules and lifetime access to the training recordings, allowing you to return to the material, integrate it into your own practice and gradually embody what you’ve learned.
Is this certification officially recognized with Yoga Alliance Continuing Education?
Upon full completion of both training days and your post-weekend practical submission, you will receive a 30-Hour Yin Yoga Specialist Certificate. Registered Yoga Teachers (RYTs) can log all 30 hours directly toward Yoga Alliance Continuing Education (YACEP) credits.
Are there any prerequisites or prior teaching certifications required to attend?
There are no formal prerequisites. While 200-Hour certified teachers gain immediate sequencing protocols to start teaching Yin right away, dedicated practitioners without a prior teaching credential are fully welcomed to deepen their personal anatomy, meridian study, and self-practice. Level One is a prerequisite for Level Two, and Level Two is a prerequisite for Level Three. You have the option of completing any Level Online.
What happens if an unexpected scheduling conflict causes me to miss a training session?
Full attendance is encouraged for live feedback, but all sessions are professionally recorded in high definition. If you miss a specific module due to an emergency, you can complete the makeup assignment and review the session recording within 14 days without forfeiting certification.
What learning materials and post-training support will I receive after graduating?
You receive our comprehensive full online course, materials and downloadable resources.
I have a studio space and would love you come and teach this program here, are you willing to travel?
Bree is a seasoned traveller and would be happy to discuss this further with you. You can reach out to her personally at [email protected]
