Introduction to TCTSY Trauma Sensitive Yoga Workshop with Michelle Scandurro

“Introduction to TCTSY Trauma Sensitive Yoga” Workshop
4 Yoga Alliance CEUs

Saturday, Sept. 6, 2-5pm

This three hour workshop has been approved by Yoga Alliance for 4 CEUs. We’ll summarize the theoretical underpinnings and methodology of TCTSY, and offer a brief review of the evidence of efficacy. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to experience 20 - 30 minutes of TCTSY movement practice. This workshop will not qualify you to teach TCTSY, but you’ll have a deeper sense of how any yoga class can be more trauma sensitive.

TCTSY is the world’s original yoga for trauma; twenty years of research have demonstrated that it’s as effective as talk therapy without the need to talk about or even know what trauma you’re dealing with. It’s the only yoga program developed by Bessel van der Kolk’s team (He wrote The Body Keeps the Score). It’s not about exercise, mobility, or alignment. It’s a somatic therapy for the treatment of complex trauma and PTSD. 8 - 10 sessions of TCTSY practice has been proven to reduce trauma symptoms such as disconnection to one’s body, interpersonal distrust, anxiety, and even physical pain.

Your facilitator, Michelle Scandurro, is a 200 RYT yoga teacher with both TCTSY-F and mindful meditation certifications. Once upon a time, she taught high school English and was a high school administrator, both of which she loved. She currently teaches trauma-informed Restorative Yoga at Swan River Yoga in New Orleans. A survivor of complex trauma, she brings her own healing experiences to the mat. She humbly offers to hold a space for mutual learning and healing.
