About Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Training

Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY) is an adjunctive treatment for complex trauma and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Developed in collaboration with the Center for Trauma and Embodiment in Brookline, Massachusetts, in 2003 and as part of the Justice Resource Institute (JRI) in 2006, TCTSY is utilized with children, youth, and adults worldwide.

Testimonial

“I am incredibly glad I attended this Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga Training. It has made very clear to me the emphasis of what TCTSY is about and has given me concrete tools to work with in my practice. I also find the fact that it is applicable in daily life a real added value. It is, in my eyes, a philosophy of life, more than a stand-alone way of yoga.”
— Silvia Rossel, Belgium, 2024
