Somatics & Trauma

A significant proportion of traumatic experiences are stored in the body, which is why a somatic perspective on the development and processing of trauma is very useful.

In February and March there will be 2 training seminars for Embodied Empowerment - Trauma & Self-Regulation with Pia Witthöft. They invite you to learn the classification of the term “trauma” and to understand its origins, effects and connections in the context of a somatic psychological approach. >> more info

Embodied Release will start in January 2025 and will be Tiziana Longo's second regular course alongside Dancing Tigers T.R.E. While both programs share a focus on somatic awareness and release, Dancing Tigers is more dynamic and energizing, with an emphasis on physical release through TRE, whereas Embodied Release is more introspective, aimed at emotional reconnection and relaxation. Dancing Tigers may be a better fit if you're seeking a more gradual physical release with a focus on the psoas and chest. If you’re more drawn to emotional release through movement, the Embodied Release course might be the most beneficial.
