“Tools & maps for your yin yoga journey.

A simple practice for every body. 

Medicine for the modern world. 

Slow Down. Tune in. Let go. Wake up.”

- Nik Robson

Yin Culture was founded in 2018 by Nik Robson.

Over the last 8 years we have trained over 200 Yin Yoga teachers.

The intention of Yin Culture is to be a harmonizing force in the world.

The Yin Culture system of practice is based on Traditional Yoga philosophy.

Yin Yoga is a beautiful complimentary practice to Tantra Hatha Yoga.

It integrates the Body, Energy and Mind with Asana, Pranayama, Meditation and Yoga Nidra.

Our next training will be held in Sri Lanka from March 14th-28th 2027.

After an incredibly successful retreat in March 2026 we will be returning again to Kandy Samadhi Centre. We were blown away by the beauty and peacefulness of the nature along with the elegant architectural design that blends in harmoniously with the surroundings.

Nourishing ayurvedic food and comfortable shared accommodation is provided so you can relax and enjoy the experience. Additional ayurvedic treatments and massages can be booked before and after the training or during lunch breaks.

You will have one day off in the middle of the training to integrate the experience and celebrate the completion of your transformational process. There will be time each day for you to explore the forest, rivers and waterfalls on the land.

The second week is focused on giving you all the tools you need to confidently teach Yin Yoga. Everyone will get the opportunity to practice teaching and receive mentorship by Nik and the assistant teachers. At the end of the training you will graduate and receive permission to teach the practices you have learned.
