# Event Details - **Event Name**: Trauma-Informed Practice with Monique Newton - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 14 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm (-04:00) - **Event Description**: Online and/or In-Person Training Holding space is a continual learning process. Although teachers and other wellness practitioners show up with positive intent, offerings may have an unexpected impact. Many folks do not feel welcome, face obstacles of all kinds, and are sometimes adversely affected by what happens in yoga and mindfulness classes. Through discussion about the dynamics of power and privilege, participants will learn to offer yoga in a way that honours the tradition of yoga and celebrates the spectrum of human diversity. By understanding the connections between trauma and yoga, we can take skillful action. Participants will develop a trauma-informed lens and come away with resources to integrate into their own lives and to support the well-being of others. This course is an experiential learning opportunity designed to build on current capacities and empower sustainable service. Learning Objectives: ~ Learn how to design trauma-informed offerings by co-creating spaces and practices that welcome diverse lived experiences. ~ Gain awareness of social justice and the importance of strengths-based approaches to creating safe and supportive yoga spaces. ~ Develop an expanded understanding of trauma—including types of trauma and their impact—and critically examine mainstream narratives about healing and resilience. ~ Connect the teachings of yoga, including the Yoga Sutras and Polyvagal Theory, to trauma-informed and responsive service, supporting healing and growth from a nervous system perspective. ~ Build care capacities to address issues as they arise and serve in a sustainable, compassionate way. ~ Practice applying trauma-informed approaches through class sequences and 1:1 sessions using key elements of safety, responsiveness, and empowerment. ~ Support the well-being of others by fostering resilience and connection within yoga communities.
