Training was fun and very informative. It was great that we got to learn not only from Catherine but from each other’s sharing as well. The class size is small and the people in our group were all very nice and willing to share. Love the a-ha moments when we learn why certain things happen and something just clicked in my head. Love the functional yoga section as well, discovered that there was more than one pose I could actually get into when using the functional approach.
It has changed the way I view Yin Yoga as a practice. I have begun to love it more and love the understanding I have now of my Yin practice, the concepts and principles behind it. I have also started to be less easily agitated and know that I can turn to my breath and practice when overcome with stress. My sleep has improved by 70% from my now-daily Yin practice.

The training did a masterful job of exploring Yin Yoga through various perspectives, in a systematic and structured way. Catherine is an adept communicator who can cue a Hatha class with uplifting precision or guide a Yin class with soothing clarity, while respecting the uniqueness of each student's body and providing useful variations or guidance where necessary. She is also an inspiring educator who can make abstract Traditional Chinese Medicine concepts accessible to the layman, and breathe life to dry anatomical knowledge. But above all, she is a caring teacher who always places her students' well-being first, and nurtures her trainees to the best of her ability.
The teaching practice sessions - which I had a love-hate relationship with - turned out to be the most fulfilling part of the training, as I saw myself progress from blanking out during an early practice session, to eventually becoming somewhat more confident leading a 60-minute class.
I really appreciated that Catherine took a gradual approach, allowing all of us to slowly build our confidence. I am also extremely thankful to Catherine for being infinitely patient and understanding towards my overflowing of nerves and stiff delivery of cues - without her nurturing words and constant encouragement, I might not have built up my current level of confidence in teaching.
As a self-professed introvert who has always been averse to being in the spotlight, I have never expected to come this far, just by consistently giving my best at something that feels uncomfortable. Regardless of whether I seek out more opportunities to teach in future, I will maintain this can-do spirit and look into other aspects of my life where I can nudge - or push - the boundaries of my comfort zones, and continually work towards personal growth.

Very in-depth and thorough. Catherine was very generous with her time and knowledge. It was very eye-opening to learn about how the body works and how all these parts are inter-linked. I think the most memorable aspect was the growth we shared as a class.

If you have any questions, please visit the FAQ section below or get in touch at hello@yogayinfinity.com or here for questions not found in FAQ. Thank you!
There is not one size fit all approach when it comes to students or people. We have options and variations in Yin yoga so the same thing for life, remember we always have agency to change course if the stress is too much to bear or tweak the angle or position we are at.
And also I'm grateful for a chance to step out of my comfort zone and have a bunch of supportive people who's very encouraging! No fear exists without an invitation to expand.

The class size, the energy, and how we’re all similar in some way, along with the pacing, everything was so thoughtfully structured. Seeing everyone choose different options was honestly so beautiful and memorable for me. The TCM element and mindfulness (chef's kiss!!) were spot on, and the way Catherine encouraged us to share was really supportive. Overall, Catherine created such a safe space for us to learn, grow, and share, and it was clear she put a lot of mindful intention into it.
I absolutely loved the training. Definitely one of the best decisions I made in 2024.

Catherine Tan
E - RYT 500 | YACEP | Chinese Medicine Health Management Practitioner
Lead Trainer
As a long time street dancer and gym aficionado who isn't naturally flexible, Catherine had turned to Yoga as a means for change. Little did she know that this would lead to a life changing shift physically, emotionally and mentally.
After a decade of teaching dance, she embarked on the journey of teaching Yoga 15 years ago through her first training in Hot and Hatha Yoga. In a bid to serve students better, she went on to study Yin Yoga, Pre and Post Natal Yoga and Vinyasa Yoga with respected teachers around the world.
In the process, she discovered her love for the Yin practice, which led her to deepen her studies in Yin with leading Yin teachers including Bernie Clark, Jo Phee, Sarah Powers, Paul Grilley, and Victor Chng*, clocking in hundreds of training hours and 11 years of regular teaching for Yin Yoga alone.
In 2020, she graduated top of class from a 2-year program at the Singapore College of Traditional Chinese Medicine followed by the completion of the Chinese Medicine Health Management Practitioner diploma from the college as well.
Her belief in lifelong learning and keen interest in anatomy, fascia, myofascial release, Chinese Medicine, qigong healing and yoga philosophy have motivated her to pursue such knowledge rigorously with teachers from both within and outside the Yoga community, adding breadth and depth to her practice and teaching.
With thousands of hours of training and teaching behind her, Catherine is an experienced teacher who believes the asana practice is a small but beautiful part of Yoga. Convinced of the benefits that Yoga has brought her, she would love to share this joy with more people and hopefully create a positive change for her students.
Through this training, she hopes to help practitioners deepen their understanding of the Yin practice and empower more teachers with the knowledge and confidence to share the quietly powerful practice of Yin Yoga with the world.

Loh Wei
Qualified MBSR Teacher
Guest Trainer
Loh Wei knows meditation can change lives because it changed his.
Drawing inspiration from revered Buddhist teachers like Tsoknyi Rinpoche, Master ChiChern (繼程師父), and teachers at Dharma Drum Mountain (法鼓山), Loh Wei's practice finds its foundation in Chinese Zen (漢傳禪法), while also benefiting from the insights of Dzogchen.
Having attended over 14 silent meditation retreats (and counting), he witnessed how meditation led to profound transformations in his life, particularly during times of loss and identity exploration.
As a firm believer that mindfulness has something for everyone, he transited from being the owner of a successful accounting practice to dedicating himself to volunteerism and sharing mindfulness practices with others to make its benefits accessible to all.
This has led him on a diverse teaching journey for the past 8 years, spanning marginalised communities such as former inmates, LGBTQ individuals, and people living with HIV, to non-profit organisations, employees, and corporate leaders.
Driven by a passion for empowering others, especially those navigating stress and trauma, Loh Wei employs a trauma-sensitive approach towards his courses, fostering a safe and supportive environment for all participants to engage fully.
After spending 18 months learning how to teach mindfulness effectively from the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Center for Mindfulness, Loh Wei also brings passion and experience in equal measure as a qualified MBSR (Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction) practitioner, teacher and trainer.
This blend of traditions shapes both his professional and personal journeys, infusing them with wisdom, compassion, and authenticity.
Through a combination of conceptual understanding and hands-on practice, Loh Wei's ultimate goal is to help participants develop the confidence to share about mindfulness while fully embodying non-judgmental awareness to create a learning environment imbued with kindness, compassion, and equanimity.
I have greater insights to what Yin Yoga is about, how to teach it functionally (and why it is important to teach it functionally), learning about the different parts of the body (although I really have difficulties remembering them), the meridians and how mindfulness can be incorporated into teaching of Yin. By understanding this, it allows myself to have better awareness of my body's own limit and open up to different options I can do without feeling lousy about it.
Both Catherine and Lou Wei made difficult concepts easy to understand by giving appropriate examples that's are palatable to me. Thank you for putting in so much preparation for this training, am grateful that I have the opportunities to learn from both of you, as well as learn alongside my course mates.
