SWAGS Trauma-informed Yoga Practice with Erika Newberry

Join SWAGS for this Trauma-Informed Yoga class with Erika Newberry from the Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga.

This is an evidence based practice specifically designed to support those living with Complex Trauma/ C-PTSD. This practice is grounded in trauma theory, attachment theory, neuroscience and hatha yoga and incorporates invitational language, choice making, interoception, non-coercion, and shared authentic experience.

These sessions are designed to create a safe, supportive and non-judgmental environment to enable participants to explore the connection between body and breath through physical forms and movements based on Hatha Yoga, with the opportunity of building a positive relationship with their body. Unlike many general yoga sessions, no physical hands-on adjustments are offered, and the focus is more on the participants’ internal experience as opposed to the external form. TCTSY empowers participants to create choices for their own practice based on the felt sense of being in their body.
