Reflections 2025:  A Yoga Group for Grief & Loss
Mar 16, 2025 - Mar 16, 2025

Practicing yoga can be a powerful way to help yourself heal after loss. Whether your loss is the death of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, or surviving a major health crisis or traumatic event, the grief process is often slow and meandering. Yoga can help to comfort you in times of sadness and grief, to feel connection or closure with who or what is lost, and to open your heart and be in the present.

This ongoing workshop helps students develop a toolkit for resilient grieving, including yoga and movement, breathwork, meditation and reflection, journaling, and the company of others experiencing loss. Join Joe-Paul and this yoga group of students addressing grief, adjusting to a new world after loss, and focusing on renewal and investment in health and relationships.

A Framework for Teaching Trauma-Sensitive Yoga
May 17, 2025 - May 18, 2025

Trauma-sensitive training is essential for all yoga teachers, as it empowers them with the knowledge and skills needed to cultivate a safe and supportive environment that honors the diverse backgrounds and experiences of their students.

In this workshop, you will explore the fundamental principles of trauma-sensitive yoga, learning not only the essential dos and don'ts but also how to seamlessly integrate trauma awareness into all your classes. You'll gain practical insights on addressing common classroom concerns, including effective ways to introduce and cue your classes, as well as recognizing and responding to triggers, stressors, or any discomfort that may arise.

By the end of the workshop, you'll have a clear understanding that trauma-sensitive yoga is really for everyone, promoting a more inclusive and compassionate approach that deeply respects and values each student’s unique journey.

This workshop includes pre-assignment reading and videos to complete before we meet, so please budget at least five hours to prepare your homework in the weeks before the workshop.

This workshop will:

  • Give you an understanding of trauma: its definition, its prevalence, and how it affects an individual's physical, emotional, and mental well-being
  • Teach you how meditation, movement, and breathwork can help
  • Cultivate your trauma-sensitive awareness and help you understand both the opportunities and cautions for yoga teachers
  • Introduce you to a trauma-sensitive yoga framework—a foundational approach for all movement practitioners
  • Aid you in designing trauma-sensitive yoga classes for all your students
  • Give you strategies for deepening your trauma-sensitive yoga teaching beyond the basics
  • Give you a warm, supportive environment in which to workshop what you learn

After we meet in person, you'll have some additional homework to complete, including a review by Joe-Paul of the transcript of a yoga class you've taught that incorporates the framework for trauma-sensitive yoga.

Joe-Paul leads this workshop, with Sage as his teaching assistant. You'll earn 18 CEUs for this workshop.

We meet Saturday, 10 a.m.–1 p.m. and 2–5 p.m., and again Sunday, 10 a.m.–1 p.m. (There is no Sunday afternoon session, freeing you to travel to us for the workshop.)

This workshop, which is part of our 300/500-hour advanced studies yoga teacher training, is also open to (and recommended for!) teachers from any movement modality.
