Trauma-Informed Yoga Training with Zabie Yamasaki

The impact trauma has on the body's physiology is immense and it is essential to provide holistic and alternative forms of healing for survivors.

Trauma-informed yoga can help survivors gently tend to embodied trauma imprints with care and bring them to the surface. And with greater awareness, time, and patience, survivors often feel empowered with new tools to name and address their symptoms and survival responses and identify ways to work with them. This can ultimately lead to a space where survivors can expand their capacity for neuroplasticity, feel affirmed and seen, and take powerful steps toward post-traumatic
growth.

This 3-day training will provide yoga teachers, mental health professionals, educators, administrators, activists, medical professionals, doulas, coaches, healers, or anyone who is interested in teaching from a trauma-informed lens with all of the necessary tools to create a safe environment for survivors of trauma. CE’s are available via Yoga Alliance. Please note this training is taught from a broad lens and can be applicable to working with multiple experiences of trauma.
