Trauma Sensitive Yoga Classes Sydney
Union Street Yoga (175a Union Street, Erskineville)
Every Saturday 11:00am - 12:00pm
In my trauma sensitive yoga class, you will be guided through a gentle moving yoga practice and invited to notice what you feel in your body. Noticing how sensations shift, evolve and come to an end can help us to expand our capacity for dealing with physical and emotional distress, which begins the process of truly inhabiting our body and building resilience.
You will be invited to make empowering choices based on what you’re feeling, taking variations of poses, or different poses entirely to bring the energy of the class up or down - providing you with the opportunity to explore what you need in that moment.
The classes will cover a variety of yoga techniques to help you connect to your body, including gentle breath practices and guided meditations to promote relaxation. This class is suitable for those who have experienced trauma, depression or have stressful or anxious feelings.

No prior yoga experience is necessary, however if this is your first class with me, it would be helpful for me to know a little information about you so that I can better tailor the class to suit your needs. Please fill out my intake form here.
As classes are limited to 10 people, please book your place before coming along.
Feel free to bring your own yoga mat if you have one, otherwise there are mats you can borrow at the studio.
“The beauty of trauma-sensitive yoga is that no one is there to talk about their experience of trauma. There is a shared energy - a bond and an understanding that everyone is in the room because they may have had a similar experience. We are there to breathe together and move together as a community, and it’s a powerful things to share this connection.”
