Trauma Sensitve Yoga
Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is offered to all students once a week as a part of their treatment process at NVW. TCTSY helps students to learn and practice needed self awareness and self regulation skills using a research based yoga practice.
Through safe and professional guidance, students are invited to explore their relationship with their body by using present moment awareness to notice and feel different muscular dynamics and breath movement. Students will have the opportunity to create rhythms, sense spatial orientation, and create empowerment through practicing making choices about what feels right in their body. TCTSY helps to strengthen the students relationship with themselves through their own inner experience and helps to strengthen the students connection with others.
Our TCTSY facilitators are certified yoga instructors that have specific TCTSY training through the Trauma Center in Brookline, MA.
