Trauma informed isn’t enough. Yes, I said it!
I think it’s safe to say we are all informed that trauma is a thing.
But what are YOU doing with that information?
What if you could stay in your own zone of genius as a teacher and guide while holding safe space for all of the humans you interact with?
AND earn continuing education credits through Yoga Alliance upon graduating!
Welcome to Trauma-Conscious Yoga through the map of the chakra system,
the “trauma-informed” course that goes deeper than the buzzword.
❤️🩹EMBODIED approach to healing
❤️🩹ENERGETIC approach to guidance
Again, the world needs more trauma-conscious guides NOW.
So, are you ready to become one?
✔️ A training that offers practical, embodied stand alone yoga tools that you can pair with whatever you are teaching - any lineage of yoga, or anything else
✔️ A training that focuses on merging top-down and bottom-up approaches to trauma healing to meet in the middle at heart-center
✔️ A training that honors the physical body and the stories it holds AND goes a layer deeper to consider how the energetic anatomy is influenced and influencing too.
You’ll find all of that here, with support from me (Katrina Marie), my team, and like-minded and hearted humans who want to make a difference in the world, just like you!
In fact, it is SO much more about what you are doing with that information. It is about being conscious of the lived experience of others as you move through the world and interact with the other healing humans in it.
That is trauma-conscious.
✔️This is for yoga teachers, of all lineages, who want to bring more trauma-consciousness to their classes.
✔️For classroom educators who want to honor the lived experiences and the diversity of the students and add yoga tools to help them with self-regulation.
✔️For personal trainers who wants their clients to get more out of their time with them because they feel safe, seen, and empowered.
✔️For any movement or fitness guide that wants to understand the intersection of physical and subtle anatomy.
✔️Really for teachers and guides of all kinds that want to honor and support the healing humans of today's world
Having said that, we are not here to teach you to be yoga teachers.
I do that in other spaces (book a discovery call if you want to do that!)
I don't want to recreate the wheel. I trust that you are an expert in your field, whatever that is. I want you to stay in your zone of genius as far as that goes.
I DO want to help you be more trauma-conscious as you interact with peope in your field, whatever that is and give you trauma-healing tools to share with them.
And I DO believe in the power of yoga tools to heal trauma.
I'm living, breathing, heart-beating proof that they work.
They gave me the strength to overcome an eating disorder, navigate PTSD from experiencing a school shooting, find the strength to leave an abusive of all the kinds marriage, and navigate the resulting complex PTSD from that relationship.
So while I have studied human anatomy and physiology, human neurobiology, education, and somatics, while I am an ERYT 500+ with countless hours of teaching classes, while I help certify hundreds of yoga teachers a year in both hatha-vinyasa and kundalini, it is those lived experiences I just shared that help make me the compassionate guide and space holder I am. They are far more relevant to the way I show up in the world than any honors listed on any degree or any number of hours or count of people I've taught.
Put all of that together and that is where my purpose is.
I know the body, physically and energetically.
I know yoga, and I know trauma. I live them both. Daily.
I DO believe yoga tools can be layered into all parts of life for embodiment, empowerment, and reclamation in a simple, practical, fit into everything else way.
So that's the why for the yoga piece of it all!

"Trauma-Conscious Language is come-as-you-are.
It gives permission.
It invites in choice and agency.
It considers the lived experience of those receiving what you have to say.
It encourages curiosity with questions.
And it delivers the words in a patient, compassionate and well paced way that encourages embodiment and exploration of all parts of the self of all types of people."
-Katrina Marie

There will be an upcoming self-study form of this course too!
We understand that we all have lives and responsibilities outside of this and that schedules and time zones don’t always align. If you want a certificate with your name and my name on it you need to complete the graduation requirements, including being live at 7 out of the 14 calls. If you just want to take the replays in you are welcome to join and do that once they are uploaded, but you will not be eligible for a certificate.
If you prefer to go at your own pace, watch for details for the upcoming self-study option!
Katrina is a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP) and this training will qualify for 50 hours of CE credit, provided you have met the attendance and graduation requirements to receive a certificate.
To graduate and receive a certificate you will need to:
We will give more details, dates for completion, ways to submit your reflections, and answer any questions (there are no silly questions!) when we meet live.
NOTE: These will look a bit different for the upcoming self-study form.
You can learn this best by embodying it and hearing trauma-conscious voices! If you are already a KMY or Radiate + Elevate Member you will join classes as you are used to on our class schedule. If you are not yet a member, a few weeks before training we will send you a link and a discount code to sign up for our KMY practice membership. The code will get you your first 3 months free and then will begin charging you monthly. Once you have that all set up you will register for your classes on the schedule.
We’d love for you to continue to practice with us, but if that isn’t aligned we respect that too. You can cancel it at anytime. Or upgrade it to the Radiate + Elevate Trauma-Conscious Instructor Membership!
Thanks for being part of our community. We have discount codes for you. Email katrina@katrinamarieyoga.com and we will get you your code!
I deeply understand that we all crave different levels of support along our journey. Katrina offers private mentoring. Reach out to katrina@katrinamarieyoga.com for more information.
I respect you taking authority over your experience. But I also respect the value and heart myself and my team have poured into this. If you decide this isn’t for you there are no refunds, but I will honor your 3 months of our practice membership, give you the training manual, and offer a scholarship to someone who is unable to invest in the experience themself in your honor.
