25 HOURS TRAUMA INFORMED YOGA TEACHER TRAINING

with Caz Pringle-Bowden

Trauma-Informed yoga aims to make yoga accessible to all. In Trauma-Informed yoga, there are no expectations, therefore, it allows our true nature to unfold, giving us permission to explore ourselves and our relationship to others.

A regular, Trauma-Informed practice can provide a bridge away from living with anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health challenges, to a healthy baseline of contentment and joy. It is the ongoing nature of the practice that creates long-term balance in our nervous systems.

This Trauma-Informed training offers a foundation for facilitating yoga, mindful movement, breath, meditation and somatic practices as tools for self-regulation and mental health support.

This training is open to all who are curious, yoga teachers, meditation teachers, embodiment facilitators and mental-health practitioners. There is no pre-requisite training for this course, all are welcome.

We would love to talk with you if you have any questions. Please contact co-owner, Mel Mackintosh on 0413 298 132 or at info@australianyogaacademy.com to discuss.
