Who can attend the training? 

This module is open to those who have completed Intermediate 1.


What will I learn? 

Intermediate 2 is the second of two Facilitation Modules in the Collective Resilience certification sequence.

Through discussion, small & large group work, and case studies, it equips participants to utilize frameworks and tools such as developmental movement, the kosha system, trauma-informed languaging, and accessible asana to support self-regulation through trauma-informed classes for a wide variety of students.

• Inclusive sequencing and accessibility in asana

• Sequencing for grounding, centering, orientation, and breath

What will I learn? 

Intermediate 1 is the first of two Facilitation Modules in Collective Resilience’s certification sequence. Unlike the Foundations Modules, which primarily focus on foundational frameworks and broad understanding of concepts, the Facilitation Modules dive deep into the practicalities of facilitating trauma-informed classes, sequences, and spaces. 

Through discussion, lecture, small & large group work, and case studies, participants will learn, explore, and practice specific trauma-informed yoga facilitation tools necessary for creating compassionate, welcoming spaces that break down barriers. This module will hone participants’ understanding of attachment theory, the Polyvagal system, systems of privilege & oppression, compassion for self and others, as well as nervous system regulation and how it can be used to cultivate a greater sense of safety for individuals and groups. Through these lenses, the training will explore barriers to inclusion for specific people & populations - including BIPOC communities, LGBTQIA+ folks, disabled folks, and larger-bodied folks, among others - and how facilitators can minimize those barriers in their own teaching.

What does the module cover?

This module covers:

• Embodied understanding of the Polyvagal system

• Reading and working with nervous system states in self and students

• Attachment theory and co-regulation skills

• Relationship between attachment theory, Polyvagal system, and systemic oppression

• Yoga philosophy to support inclusion, compassion, and co-regulation

• Disability justice as a framework for trauma-informed teaching

• LGBTQIA+ competent language and teaching
  

Join us for Nervous System Reset: Somatic Practices for Self and Community-Care with RW Alves & Kyra Haglund. In this course you will explore various somatic practices from a trauma-informed, individual and collective-healing lens. Participants will learn foundational principles of trauma-informed movement and somatics, basic brain science and nervous system information, and specific movement practices and somatic explorations to use in their own practice, as well as how to apply and modify those practices to use with clients and students.

This course is for you, if you:

• Want to feel more present, more in your body, more resilient, and more able to respond to life as it unfolds

• Want to learn somatic, body-based tools to support yourself and others

• Want to explore how our own individual somatic self-care practices relate to, support, and weave in with collective care and social justice

This course is also for anyone who wants to explore and learn more about somatic practices that are not directly from yoga but can complement and support our yoga practices, not only for our individual growth and healing, but also to support clients and students we may be working with, as well as our communities.

You'll walk away from this course with a toolbox of practices for somatic exploration to:

• Cultivate greater presence and responsiveness

• Gain more nervous system regulation

The first half of this 40-hour training provides an integrative and physiological framework for understanding the relationship between trauma & chronic stress and the mind/body. It focuses on yoga, mindfulness, somatic practices, and meditation (along with relevant theory and tools) to help reduce reduce trauma symptoms, cultivate a greater sense of well-being, and support the reclamation of safety and empowerment in the body.

The second half of this training provides a deep dive into how trauma and structural violence impacts us on the individual, institutional, and systemic levels, as well as how trauma-informed yoga teaching can help pave the way for more resilience, transformation, and equity in our communities. Through a sociopolitical framework, we explore power, privilege, marginalization, oppression, and social justice issues like poverty, racism, sexism, and homophobia. Unpacking and reflecting on our own individual locations in these systems is vital for any space holder to do in order to truly serve others and cultivate healing for all.

• Harm reduction in yoga & other healing spaces
• Strength and resilience in marginalized communities
• Spiritual bypass as it relates to social justice
• Connections between yoga, trauma, oppression, resilience & healing
• How identity, positionality & intersectionality impacts us all
• Staying present & interacting with others with different identities & experiences
• Exploring ways to use our practice & teaching to heal & create social change

This intensive is open to people of all levels and all backgrounds; you do not need any specific training prior to attending, although we strongly recommend having a current yoga practice. We believe this training will be most helpful (and valuable) to those interested in being more trauma and social justice-informed, including yoga teachers, social workers, therapists, clinicians, health care professionals, educators, community service personnel, and activists looking for more equitable, sustainable tools and approaches to support healing from trauma and chronic stress.
