Trauma-Informed Yoga [Series]

Jun 5, 2023 - Jul 17, 2023
$ 150.00 for entire series

6 Week Series
Dates: June 5, 12, 19, 26 and July 10 & 17.
This series is designed specifically for women looking for a safe space to practice yoga for healing, and structured to support and heal your mind, body, and spirit from the impacts of trauma, grief, or the impacts of an over-stressed nervous system. This group series also incorporates mindful practices to help you explore, transform, and heal from painful experiences as you process through difficult emotions in meaningful ways and more personally support the depth of your healing yoga practice.
Through honoring our bodies and expressing our thoughts through more than words, we allow our minds and our hearts the space we need to heal.

This six-week group will guide you through trauma-informed yoga practices (gentle vinyasa-flow yoga; restorative yoga, and yoga nidra), meditation, and mindfulness practices. Each session is intentionally tailored to promote healing and relaxation of the mind and body. The atmosphere will be structured to nurture your soul, and will include tea, aroma therapy (essential oils), and yoga/meditation props.

The group size will be small, capped at 12 women.

This Trauma-Informed Yoga group is facilitated by Courtney Chandler, LPC, ATR-BC, AADC, E-RYT 500. Courtney has been teaching yoga since 2013 and is certified in Trauma Conscious Yoga Methods and Y12SR (Yoga for 12 Step Recovery). Courtney is also a Board-Certified Art Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor, and Certified Grief Informed Professional who integrates aspects of Somatic Experiencing (SE) trauma therapy, EMDR trauma therapy, and mindfulness-based stress reduction into her therapeutic practices.

Customer Reviews Leave a review on Google!

“Abbey’s classes are such an inspiration to me that always leads me back to her! There is something so special about her voice that just calms you. I feel like a part of me is missing when I don’t get my morning yoga class in. I am more content, happier and fulfilled. I always try and remember Abbey’s words of ‘respectful communication’!”

Lizette

“Abbey Garcia is the BEST yoga instructor in the Upstate (or probably anywhere). I’ve practiced with her for nearly 4 years. Practicing with Abbey has helped me improve my overall body strength as well as maintain my balance both physically and in life emotionally. Abbey excels at instruction and she creates a unique environment for each class that keeps me focused and mindful during each pose for maximum benefit. Her words at the end of each practice give me closure to class but also thoughts to carry throughout my day. Abbey is creative, helpful, patient, accepting, friendly and kind. I look forward to every yoga class with Abbey.”

Heidi

“We have found new friends directly because of yoga. Some of these friendships are the kind to cherish, lifetime ones!”

NIck

“As moms, life can get hectic and so being able to take a breath and connect with myself and my friends is a real treat for us! It’s a reset. Just talking about it makes me want to go to yoga right now.”

Ruth & Jenny

“You know those yoga classes that are everything you need them to be? Like if you could’ve created your ideal class? And it’s almost euphoric? Elizabeth’s class was that for me! It was magical. I haven’t had one quite like that in YEARS. I’m still riding a high from it. Thank you so, so much!”
