Trauma Informed Yoga Teacher Training

This 3-day program led by Purple Dot Yoga Project Founder Kate Berlin is designed to give yoga teachers the tools to responsibly and compassionately teach to individuals and communities that have been impacted by domestic violence, assault and trauma. You will learn valuable, research-backed tools to help people heal and release trauma in the body and mind, break through limiting beliefs and patterns, and access greater resiliency, confidence, self-worth and empowerment.

This comprehensive training focusses on self-inquiry, and the ability to teach from personal experience. You’ll learn the fundamentals of trauma —understanding trauma and it’s anatomy — the function of our autonomic nervous system, and the role of yoga in healing trauma. You’ll also learn how to hold space for individuals affected by trauma, how to structure a class, and how to diffuse challenging scenarios.

If you’re looking to dive deeper into your own personal exploration, or add additional resources to your tool box, this training is for you.
