A Body that Hums: Somatic Yoga + Vocal Activation Workshop

"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.

Date: July 4 (Saturday)

Time: 4:30-5:45 pm

Venue: Marcuse studio, The Dance Centre, 677 Davie Street

Investment: $22 (20% off early bird by June 5, discount automatically applied at check out)
