Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Training with Shannon Carlin RYT 500, PRYT, YACEP
Radical Transformation & Practicing Empowerment:
UPDATED DATES:
FRIDAYS: 6:00-9:30PM
1 in 4 people are survivors of trauma.
Few have the tools and resources to manage trauma symptoms effectively. Many people may not even identify themselves as survivors of trauma. Anxiety, depression, addictions, behavioral, health and relationship issues are often the result of unresolved trauma and chronic stress.
The intention of a trauma-informed yoga practice is to build resilience, cultivate empowerment and encourage self-regulation. The intention of a trauma-sensitive yoga training is to enable teachers, leaders and agents of change with the knowledge and experience to become more skilled in teaching and relating to anyone and everyone, not just those who identify as trauma survivors.
When we feel truly safe and at home in our bodies, we can allow our body's innate wisdom to transform our past wounds into opportunities for growth and deep healing in the present moment. Embodied practices also help us to stay grounded and resilient in times of conflict and/or adversity.
During this 20-hour Trauma Informed Yoga Teacher Training, you will experience the integration of this work in your own body and mind as well as listen to lectures, participate in discussion, breathwork, journaling, partner and group work. This training offers an overview of the theory, language, practice, and energetics of Trauma Sensitive yoga.
In this training, we will explore:
