A body that hums: somatic yoga + vocal activation

"Safety is not the absence of threat, it's the presence of connection." - Gabor Maté
Modern life asks us to override our bodies constantly — to push through, perform, stay productive, stay “positive.”
This trauma-informed somatic yoga workshop offers another way.
Rather than forcing the body into fixed shapes, this practice invites you to explore movement from the inside out — in a way that feels personal, grounding, and sustainable.
