As a society, we are at baseline incredibly overstimulated. Chasing peak experiences and conditioned to prioritize speed, our systems have become backlogged in their processing of both everyday experiences and of trauma. This entire training is structured to support the truth that somatic healing requires space and time, and can often be incredibly subtle. We prioritize integration, and retrain our systems how to feel safe holding both ourselves and others through slow, embodied presence.

Both as a student in this training and in the refinement of your facilitation skills, we prioritize a “person-centered” approach that focuses on our humanness first, the tools and modalities second. This allows us, and our students and clients to cultivate our / their own sense of autonomy and choice in and around the healing and learning experience, nurturing a sense of inner-leadership, empowerment, and self-trust.

Becoming aware of and speaking to the direct, present moment experience of what's happening in the body gets us in touch with what's really going on -- rather than our mind’s stories and assumptions about it -- so that we can do the deep work (and play!) on whats really asking to be met, known, awakened and healed. Through this work we re-establish the body and it's language as a source of authority in our lives and our facilitation.

As a female body’s “center of gravity” both literally and metaphorically, the pelvic bowl including the bones, muscles, reproductive organs AND energetic centers (root and womb) is our greatest access point and ally in returning to and nurturing our relationship with our body and our womanhood. While this training will focus on the entire body as whole, and support a rich understanding of the broader world of somatic healing, we will organize around the truth that the energy, presence, and health of the pelvic bowl ultimately determines our ability to access aliveness, safety, and freedom in every area of life.
