20-hour Intro to Trauma Informed Yoga & Movement Facilitation

With Kathy Taylor

Geelong

Saturday 30th - Sunday 31st May &
Saturday 13th - Sunday 14 June 2026

What is Trauma Informed Yoga and Movement?

Trauma-informed yoga and movement acknowledge the neurological impacts of trauma (physical, psychological, emotional, complex), and the high instances of survivors experiencing a disconnection from their physical bodies. This approach is people-centred and explorative. The focus is on what is felt, noticing the sensations, and learning to make choices that begin to rebuild trust between body and mind.

Over time, trauma-informed yoga and movement can help folks to:

- regulate their nervous system
- reduce and better manage anxiety
- improve body awareness and tolerance for physical sensations
- increase psychological flexibility.

In this course you will learn about:
- The definition and types of trauma, including acute, chronic, complex, vicarious, intergenerational and transgenerational

- Trauma-informed space holding considerations that promote body autonomy

- The nervous systems of the body, the vagus nerve, polyvagal theory, trauma and the nervous systems

- The Window of Tolerance

- Adverse Childhood Experiences

- Attachment theory

- Trauma and the brain, trauma and memory

- The difference between trauma informed yoga and trauma sensitive yoga, specifically Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY)

- Yoga facilitation trauma competencies: trauma aware, trauma informed and trauma sensitive

- Small trauma informed shifts that may be integrated into yoga/movement facilitation and the way we hold space

- How knowledge of variable anatomy may support folks in understanding our bodies are all different and how cueing for alignment may cause harm.

TIME:
Saturdays: 11:15am – 4:30pm and Sundays: 11.15am till 4pm in studio (with lunch break)

PRICING:
The pricing for this course is offered on a tiered basis, relative to your income and circumstances. By providing these different pricing options, our hope is to allow more accessibility to a wider range of participants.

Tier 1 - $750
Tier 2 - $700
Tier 3 - $650

THE GOOD FOLK ETHOS 🙏🏼

At Good Folk, our classes are choice-based and non-performative.
That means you’re always in charge.

We’ll always offer options, but you decide what works for your body, your energy, your moment—because only you know how you feel on any given day.

There’s never pressure to push, to strive, or to match anyone else.

We’re not here to fix you or change you. We’re here to support you in being more of who you already are.

We know the wellness world can sometimes feel like it’s asking you to do more, be more, transform into someone else.

But here? That just ain’t our vibe folks!

Kind movement. Gentler breath. A rhythm instead of a race. Compassion over perfection.

You won’t find “fixes” or forced transformations—just space to be.

So come as you are. Move how you need.
