Transcending Trauma
A 40-hour Trauma-Informed Yoga Teacher Specialty Training
Learn More
Traumas are emotional events that overwhelm us and our ability to process and move through them.
As a result, a traumatized person can feel that they are at the mercy of the world around them. The information and techniques shared and practiced in this training are used to give people who have experienced trauma the chance to truly live life freely and on their own terms.
Traumas have lasting effects on the mind, body and spirit — but it does not have to be this way. This training will give you a thorough understanding what happens neurologically, physiologically and psychologically post-trauma. By encompassing these areas of knowledge we can give both scientific and spiritual tools for healing. In this way, we become more capable of serving people with various levels of receptivity and in various phases of healing.
Each module and experiential practice is informed by the the foremost leaders in trauma research and therapeutic applications of yoga specific to trauma recovery as well as inner child and shadow work including Bessel van der Kolk, Peter Levine, Pat Ogden, Ruth Lanius, David Emerson and Teal Swan.
