SOLD OUT: October Trauma Sensitive Yoga Program

Note: This program has sold out.

Our Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TSY) Program supports those who have survived trauma and are seeking yoga practices as an adjunctive to clinical or therapeutic treatment. Utilising the empirically-validated Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) method, our TSY program is delivered online and in-person.

What is Trauma-Sensitive Yoga?

Utilising the empirically validated Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) methodology, this collective being Trauma-Sensitive Group Yoga Program is delivered over 8 weeks online. In addition to the TCTSY methodology, the program integrates evidence-based, trauma-informed somatics and mindfulness practices that support wellbeing, stress relief and ease. Participants receive additional support through pre-recorded video content and a printed handbook of yoga and somatic resources to use at home.

Our Approach to TSY

Our approach to program design and facilitation is strengths-based, trauma-informed, mental health aware and gender and culture responsive. The structure and content of our programs is informed by research and education regarding the intersection between these frameworks and somatic, mindfulness and yoga-based practices. We are a proudly LGBTQIA+ affirming organisation and our sessions are inclusive of all bodies and all needs.
