I’m Em Cruickshank, the founder of The Yin Crowd, specialising in personal guidance. Through Yin Yoga, Qi Gong, and Private Inner Dharma Sessions, I offer expert tools to help you discover inner harmony and become an authority within yourself.

Current offerings

Practice

Here you will find educational offerings designed to deepen your understanding of Yin and the inner pathways.

Short courses and live events, all that’s required is an open heart and childlike curiosity to meet yourself and learn through SELF.

Intentional retreats, here we join together in community to relax, restore and reconnect.

You always have the answer..
just sometimes when it is dark, you need someone to put the batteries in your torch so you can shine the light on yourself… I am simply the batteries.”
