Back to Body Series: Four Weeks of Trauma-Informed Yoga

The back to body series is a series of four trauma informed yoga classes. Each session will be an hour and half long, allowing time for reflection and community building before/after class.

These classes are inspired by the wisdom of polyvagal theory and yoga in order for us to study ourselves somatically in supporting the healing journey. Each class will build off of the previous as we develop new ways of connecting to the body through movement, breath and stillness. While the classes are designed as a series of four, drop ins are also welcome and will still be accessible.

Back to Body: Tier 1 - Educational + Somatic Series

This series aims to discuss the intricacies of trauma both on an individual level and within our communities. We will approach this through the lens of polyvagal theory, neuroscience, and then draw parallels to yogic philosophy as well as somatic practices. Because we all have nervous systems, this series is relevant for anyone and everyone interested in understanding the human experience in a deeper way.

Back to Body: Tier 2 - Trauma-Informed Teacher Training

This tier is for yoga teachers, movement coaches, or anyone interested in teaching somatic work. It includes everything in tier 1 above with the addition of 4 extra sessions. During these sessions we will discuss and practice how to apply actually applying the concepts we’ve learned into teaching movement and inquiry to others in a way that is informed by polyvagal theory and trauma. Further than that, this training aims to bridge the gap of understanding between the clinical world and the somatic world - as we know that both are important in the healing process.

Accredited as 20 CEU’s under the Yoga Alliance

Reconnection

Please join us for Reconnection: a 5-week trauma-informed series to explore the relationship between movement, breath, mind and nervous system. The body is quite powerful. The only thing it wants to do is keep us safe. Unfortunately, oftentimes life experiences can make us feel the opposite. It is in these times when the power of the body, with the help of the nervous system, will take over the show and perhaps leave the mind feeling disconnected from our innate power.

This series is intended to open up communication between these parts of us that have a tendency to separate.
