TCTSY Foundational Training ONLINE January 2024

Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Foundational Training

Discover the Foundational Training Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga: a 20-hour program designed for yoga teachers, healthcare and mental health professionals, psychotherapists, educators, and health coaches. This training offers a profound introduction to the core concepts and practical applications of TCTSY.

Our mission is to inspire you, whether you are a yoga teacher looking to make your classes more trauma-informed or a healthcare professional seeking to integrate the body into the treatment of individuals with PTSD, developmental, or complex trauma.

Esther, our experienced trainer, leads this foundational training. This training is recognized by the Trauma Center of the Justice Research Institute (JRI) in Boston, USA and is also offered to organizations striving for a trauma-informed approach. We collaborate with organizations to support them in developing a trauma-informed culture and practices.

TCTSY was founded in 2002 and has since reached over 30,000 people worldwide. For nearly 6 years, we have been bringing TCTSY to the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. In the Benelux, Esther is the exclusive trainer and mentor for TCTSY, recognized by the Justice Research Institute in Boston.

Join our training and contribute to promoting trauma awareness, inclusivity, and building harmonious relationships in our world.

With warm regards,

Esther

Testimonials

“I can highly recommend this training for anyone facilitating yoga sessions. It provides you with valuable knowledge of trauma theory and substantial practical knowledge to support more trauma-informed yoga. It has truly helped me provide more gentle, supportive, and appropriate sessions to LGBTQI asylum seekers and refugees. But it has also changed how I think about interacting with people beyond the yoga mat – I truly believe the world would be kinder if everyone took this training!”

Louisa Borg Costanzi – Online training 2022

“Dear Esther, Thank you very much once again for the wonderful three days. I am so happy and grateful that I got to experience these days with you and the group. For now, I will let everything settle in and work, as you beautifully put it, sprinkle it in sharing the lessons and also in daily life.”
