SomaYoga Therapy is the blend of gentle therapeutic yoga with neuromuscular retraining of Somatics. In this immersion, we’ll learn how our bodies develop unconscious movement and tension patterns and how to identify & release them. Explore the neurophysiology behind SomaYoga, learn to use Interoception in our bodies, and learn how to teach others in classes. Learn skills to blend therapeutic asana and functional movement by building from the core to the limbs, along with layering Yogic maps such as the Koshas & 8 Limbs.

Learn the hows and whys of SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics:

• Learn about the stress response in the body and how to unwind the effects of stress. Learn about the symptoms and conditions caused by the body's stress response.

• SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics can help us work toward smarter muscles, and why two very conscious cycles with curiosity are better than 10 fast repetitions.

• Explore how Somatics involves the brain, muscles, and the nervous system.

• Learn how to incorporate Somatics into yoga practice to improve posture and how to release chronic pain.

Great for:

• Yoga and movement instructors want to deepen their teaching in therapeutic yoga and gain CEUs.

• Wonderful for the curious yoga student who wants to deepen their body awareness and physical practice.

• Holistic Health Providers such as PTs, OTs, Chiropractors & Massage Therapists to add a Somatic dimension to their professional skill set.
