Trauma Informed Yoga

Oddesty K is a certified yoga instructor (RYT 200) practicing and teaching trauma informed yoga practices that are inclusive and life enhancing. Oddesty is now booking organizational yoga and wellness retreats for fall 2025.

Trauma-informed yoga is a therapeutic approach to yoga that prioritizes creating a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for individuals who have experienced trauma. Unlike traditional yoga, which may emphasize physical achievement or complex poses, trauma-informed yoga focuses on:

Key Principles:

  1. Safety – Physical, emotional, and psychological safety is the top priority. This includes offering choice in movement, avoiding hands-on adjustments, and creating a calm, non-triggering environment.

  2. Empowerment and Choice – Students are encouraged to make choices about what feels right for their bodies, promoting a sense of control often disrupted by trauma.

  3. Awareness of Triggers – Instructors are trained to avoid potentially triggering language, poses, or practices. This includes being mindful of lighting, tone of voice, and even the layout of the room.

  4. Interoception – Emphasis is placed on tuning into internal sensations and the present moment to build body awareness and self-regulation.

  5. No Physical Assists – Consent is emphasized, and physical touch is generally avoided unless clearly consented to and appropriate.

  6. Inclusivity and Accessibility – Classes are often adapted to be accessible to all body types, abilities, and trauma histories.

Who Can Benefit:

  • Survivors of physical, emotional, or sexual abuse

  • Individuals with PTSD or complex trauma

  • People recovering from addiction

  • Veterans or others with combat-related trauma

  • Children, Adolescence and Adults needing a positive outlet and space to create calm

  • Individuals dealing with Anxiety, Depression or other mental health concerns

The goal is not fitness but healing—supporting nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and a restored sense of agency.
