Trauma Yoga Workshop

Yoga for Healing Trauma: An Embodied Introduction

Saturday, August 22 · 1:00-3:30 PM · Yoga NoHo Center

$45 Early Bird through August 8 · $55 after · Space is limited

If talking about it has only taken you so far - if you've ever felt disconnected from your own body, or found the words hard to find - you're not alone, and you're not doing it wrong. Healing doesn't only happen in words.

This workshop introduces Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY), an evidence-based practice that supports trauma recovery through the body. There's nothing to explain, nothing to relive, and nothing you have to share. Every moment is built on choice and invitation - and it's backed by 20+ years of research.

What you'll experience:

· Two invitation-based movement practices - every choice is yours, no experience needed

· How trauma can live in the body and nervous system - and why the words are sometimes hard to find

· Why an embodied approach doesn't leave the body out of healing - the science, in plain language

· Moments to pause, reflect, and connect - at your own pace, on your own terms

· A companion guide to follow along, with journal prompts and space to reflect

Anyone curious about how trauma healing and mindful movement can work together is welcome. Come as you are - no yoga experience needed.

Trauma Sensitive Yoga isn't a replacement for therapy - it's an evidence-based practice that supports trauma recovery, on its own or alongside the work you may already be doing.
