Online Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TC-TSY)

This 8-week TCTSY (Trauma Centre Trauma-Sensitive Yoga) online program is designed to address symptoms of PTSD and Complex Trauma. Each 60 minutes class gives participants the opportunity to empower themselves through practicing choice, safety, and awareness.

The core elements of a TCTSY class include invitational language, choice-making, enteroception, shared authentic experience, and non-coercion.

About TC-TSY

Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is an empirically validated, clinical intervention for complex trauma or chronic, treatment resistant post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), supported by more than 10 original, peer-reviewed studies and many more independent analyses.

Although TCTSY employs physical forms and movements, the focus is on the internal experience of the participant – what the forms feel like instead of what they look like. This shift in orientation, from the external to the internal, is a key attribute of TCTSY as a complementary treatment for complex trauma. With this approach, the power resides within the individual, not the TCTSY facilitator.

Further, by focusing on the felt sense of the body to inform choice-making, TCTSY provides opportunities for participants to restore their connection between mind and body and to cultivate a sense of agency that is often compromised as a result of surviving trauma. www.traumasensitiveyoga.com
