This 8-week women’s Trauma Centre - Trauma Sensitive Yoga TCTSY group is ACC funded for ‘accepted’ sensitive & mental injury physical claims clients. If you have an existing claim you are welcome to request hours for the group through your “lead provider” therapist.

Elements of standard Hatha yoga are modified to maximize experiences of empowerment and to cultivate a more positive relationship to one's body.

Unlike non TCTSY yoga classes, TCTSY does not use physical hands-on adjustments to influence a participant's physical form. Rather, TCTSY presents opportunities for participants to be in charge of themselves based on a felt sense of their own body.

All shapes are invitational - this non-coercive approach dismantles some of the power dynamics between facilitator and participant with the hope of making the space safe enough for participants to explore their internal selves (interoception).

This group is for female clients of all fitness levels, age, & health status. TCTSY can be done from standing, or sitting on a chair or the floor. No experience needed.

Participants are welcome to bring their own yoga mats if preferred - though all equipment is provided.

Please feel free to get in touch for more information or if you have any questions.
