A TRAUMA-INFORMED APPROACH
 BORN FROM CLINICAL
AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

_MG_7831_edited.jpg

What is Somatic Competence® Yoga?

  • The first trauma-informed approach in Italy based on the cutting-edge theoretical-clinical model Somatic Competence®, developed by the Institute of Integrated Psychosomatics in more than 25 years of clinical and scientific practice and research .  

  • It is not a style of yoga but a trauma-informed approach that not only restores a general sense of well-being, but also trains one to inhabit one's body and increase somato-emotional regulation processes in the whirlwind of the digital age.

  • A yoga practice that aims to stimulate in the practitioner an exploratory attitude of reappropriation of the body through the application of self-reading tools and group sharing.

  • An approach that is constantly evolving thanks to the passionate work of our multidisciplinary team , and supported by the latest international research in yoga, neuroscience, trauma therapy, and clinical psychosomatics.

Why a trauma-informed approach?

On the mat, together with our bodies, we also carry the scars left by more or less profound traumatic experiences.
A “trauma-informed” approach focuses on the mechanisms that support traumatic memories and aims to ensure the construction of new alternative memories to the trauma within a safe space of self-expression .

Somatic Competence® Yoga is an integrated approach that takes into account the delicate body-mind whole in its complexity.

Somatic Competence Yoga is...

"Ability to listen to one's body, attunement, trauma-informed"
