For teachers committed to practicing with depth, care, and responsibility.Join Haven School of Yoga founder Jessie Horness, MA, LPC, E-RYT 200, for a full-day continuing education seminar exploring what it means to teach yoga in ways that are genuinely trauma-supportive, relational, and rooted in the tradition itself.
In the first half of the day, we’ll explore the foundations of trauma-supportive teaching through a decolonized lens grounded in yoga philosophy and practice. Together, we’ll examine trauma recovery as an embodied process and develop practical skills for integrating trauma-supportive principles directly into the classroom through discussion, self-inquiry, and experiential learning.
In the second half of the day, we’ll turn toward the deeper self-development work required to hold trauma-supportive space with integrity. Topics will include power dynamics in teacher–student relationships, consent and relational safety, practices of self-resourcing, and the inner work of becoming “a safe person to feel unsafe around.”
Participants will leave with both practical teaching tools and deeper insight into the relational awareness trauma-supportive teaching asks of us.
Hosted by Yoga Roots Petoskey on July 19, 2026.
