SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics Immersion

Lead Teachers: Ann & Dan Blackburn

Engage in an opportunity to study with Yoga North International SomaYoga Institute in one of their comprehensive 2-3 day immersive training. This training will introduce you to their unique methodology of SomaYoga Therapy and give practical ways that you can begin to use the techniques to increase your own function and freedom or begin to develop an effective yoga therapy toolbox to use with clients across many professional platforms.

SomaYoga Therapy is the blend of gentle therapeutic yoga with neuromuscular retraining with Somatics. In this immersion, we’ll learn how our bodies develop unconscious movement & tension patterns, and how to identify & retrain them. Explore the neurophysiology behind SomaYoga, learn to use Interoception in our own bodies, and how to teach others in classes and private sessions. Learn skills to blend therapeutic asana and functional movement by building from the core out to the limbs, along with breath practices (pranayama) to help regulate the nervous system.

Learn the hows and whys of SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics:

  • Learn how SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics can help us release held tension and reflex patterns to gain more mobility, stability, and strength.

  • Explore how Somatics involves the brain, muscles, and nervous system.

  • Learn how to incorporate it into yoga practice to help students/clients improve posture and get out of chronic pain.

Great for:

  • Yoga and movement instructors want to deepen their teaching in therapeutic yoga and gain CEUs.

  • Excellent for the curious yoga student who wants to deepen their body awareness and physical practice.

  • Holistic Health Providers such as PTs, OTs, Chiropractors, and Massage Therapists add a Somatic approach to their professional skill set.

Required as a bridge into Yoga North's Yoga Therapy program if you have taken 500-hour teacher training from another school.

If you have been curious about SomaYoga Therapy and Somatics, this immersive training will help you become more acclimated to their powerful effects.
