Trauma-Informed Teacher Training

A Monarch Wellness continuing education offering

There is a version of yoga teaching that goes beyond alignment cues and sequence structure. One that asks not just what your body can do, but what it is carrying and what it needs to feel safe enough to be in a space at all.

This training grew out of years of living with, teaching and practicing alongside people living with chronic pain, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, dynamic disability, and trauma histories. It is shaped by lived experience as much as formal study, and it is offered as an invitation to expand what you understand a yoga space to be capable of holding.

Over the hours of our training modules, we will move through trauma-informed teaching frameworks, somatic and nervous system foundations, and the social justice and decolonization work that asks us to look honestly at who our spaces are actually built for and who they quietly leave out.

This is not about having all the answers. It is about becoming a teacher who knows how to stay present with complexity, support people whose bodies and experiences do not fit the standard mold, and build containers where difference is not just acknowledged but genuinely welcomed.

If that kind of teaching feels like the direction you are already moving in, this training might be a place to go deeper.

These will be offered in small cohorts. Live sessions with recorded content. Open to yoga teachers, seasoned practitioners, and wellness professionals at all experience levels.

Continuing education hours available for Yoga Alliance registered teachers.
