Our Approach

Student-Centered, Playful, Zen

At YUJMU, we believe that true teaching stems from deep personal experience.

Our 30-hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training is designed to cultivate not just knowledge, but wisdom through direct practice and reflection.

We prioritize the subtleties of Yin Yoga—exploring how each posture, breath, and pause creates profound shifts in both body and mind.

With a strong emphasis on grounded, pragmatic understanding and balance, our training guides you to connect more deeply with yourself, allowing you to teach with clarity, compassion, and purpose.

meet your guide

Your guide, TJ, isn’t just another instructor; he’s a former public school teacher and yoga studio manager with over two decades of experience in education and practices associated with Buddhism & Taoism. 

You will find in his programs a rare blend of Eastern philosophy with a splash of pop-culture geekiness.

Explore a grounded, pragmatic delivery of content mixed with an awe, enthusiasm and love for the magic of life.  Alongside TJ, every course becomes a journey—one where you’ll uncover deep relaxation, self-discovery, and inner transformation.  This is what he has spent his life exploring in these traditions within himself and so it is what he loves sharing with and bringing to others.

If you are ready to be inspired and encouraged to look deeper and feel more connected…
If you are yearning for a learning environment that’s both playful and profound…
