Trauma Sensitive Yoga
Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is an evidence based clinical intervention for people who have experienced complex trauma. It has been used as an adjunctive with talk therapy. TCSTY is based in Hatha Yoga with foundations of Trauma Therapy and Neuroscience.
The class will have no hands-on assistance, rather, it emphasizes choice making, invitational language and non-coercion, to help cultivate a relationship with one’s body and to create an experience of empowerment. The facilitator will also be participating in the movement to share in an authentic experience and will not be moving around the class, as an instructor might in a typical class. During the class there will be offerings to notice interception in our body, bringing our attention to the present moment.
There is no prior experience needed in yoga to participate, and modifications are offered throughout the class.
