Trauma-Sensitive Yoga

When we have received your payment you will receive a password to enter the Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Live Sessions online.  

Trauma-Sensitive Yoga provides a safe place where people can begin to connect with their bodies, and breathe, in relation to the trauma. Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is an effective adjunctive, and complementary treatment for those suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), complex or developmental trauma. This technique was developed by David Emerson at the Justice of Resource Institute (JRI) in Boston, MA.

Sensitive Techniques

TCTSY participants are invited to notice and feel sensations within their bodies throughout the practice. Participants are then encouraged to make choices about what they do and how they move with their bodies based on what they sense. This supports participants to investigate what choice feels supportive for them, taking cues from their own individual experiences. There are no physical/hands-on assists provided.

Body-centered Exploration

TCTSY applies choice and body-centered self-awareness to support a recovery process, a gentle intervention that initiates healing through people regaining a relationship with the present moment and their body. The language used throughout a yoga session is invitational and encourages curiosity to explore what one might feel in different parts of their body based on the form they are choosing to take. Over time participants begin to experience the effects of taking positive action and making choices.

If you are interested in joining the TCTSY online classes for the first time, you are welcome to get in touch with us (support@traumasensitiveyoganederland.com). We will then invite you for a phone conversation to discuss Trauma-Sensitive Yoga and further explore together what you can expect from an online lesson. The phone conversation also gives you the possibility to ask any questions you may have, and it assists the creation of a safe space for everyone by getting to know one another. If you are unsure if the classes suit you and your current journey, we are also available to explore this further and together find a suitable next step for you.

Extra important information

No previous yoga experience is necessary. Please note that the Tuesday evening lesson is a mixed lesson, meaning all genders are welcome. If you have any questions please contact us directly via mail at support@traumasensitiveyoganederland.com

This yoga class is not meant for yoga teachers or mental health workers who would like to become trauma-informed or learn about trauma-sensitive yoga as a form of professional development. If you are a professional and are interested in this form of yoga please click here for more information about professional training with Trauma Sensitive Yoga Nederland. For questions or more information about these classes, you can contact Esther directly via email.

To ensure trauma-sensitive yoga is accessible and inclusive for all survivors of complex and developmental trauma, we offer a selected number of places for participants to join our online TCTSY classes free of charge. These places are offered on an individual needs basis for those who may be unable to pay the monthly fees or registration and are part of our diversity, equity, and inclusion initiative.

If this is something you are interested in applying for, you are welcome to contact us via email at info@traumasensitiveyoganederland.com to discuss your situation, and together we can find a solution to continue sharing TCTSY together.
