TC-TRAUMA SENSITIVE YOGA:
a 2.5 day Workshop (Live Online) by Kristen Pringle
This 20-hour (2.5 day) Trauma-Sensitive Yoga foundation workshop will introduce you to the core concepts and applications of the highly regarded, evidence-based yoga program developed for adults and youth affected by PTSD, developmental or complex trauma, dissociative disorders, and other related emotional and behavioural difficulties.
​
In this workshop, you will be introduced to current trauma theory, invitational language and specific practices to support you to facilitate movement, breath practices and yoga postures that are trauma-aware and trauma-sensitive. Takeaways and practices are relevant for clients with traumatic stress, whether you work with them in a yoga studio or in a psychotherapy setting.
Kristen Pringle is a senior Mental Health Clinician, Occupational Therapist, University Supervisor, Yoga Therapist (IAYT) & one of only three licensed Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TC-TSY) trainers and certification supervisors in Australasia. This workshop is part of the only Trauma-Sensitive Yoga training accredited by the Justice Resource Institute (JRI) Center for Trauma & Embodiment, and its director David Emerson.
​
Two distinct live online foundation workshops are offered in 2020, to focus on the different learning objectives and questions of participants: one for yoga teachers and body workers, and another for mental health professionals. Actual classes of trauma-informed yoga are also organised, and open to all.

This workshop is solely for professional development and is not a certificate program: to be certified in TCTSY, completion of the 300hr TCTSY Certification is required.
