Providing trauma-informed yoga and embodied mindfulness tools and practices.
Some of our proud partners:
Our Mission
To make yoga a practice that is accessible to all members of the community, in particular those who are on the fringes or marginalised. The benefits of this practices creates a ripple effect which benefits the whole community.
Our Purpose
Yoga on the Inside provides individual and group classes for people who are experiencing, or have experienced, trauma or trauma-related symptoms.
Through the practice of yoga and embodied mindfulness, we invite individuals to develop a toolkit of skills and techniques they can draw on in daily life—especially during times of uncertainty, stress, or upheaval.
Our trauma-informed approach incorporates breath awareness, meditation, and mindful movement through asana (yoga poses), all integrated with the breath.
The research tells us that these practices support individuals to:
Better connect with themselves and others - improve relationships
Manage stress and anxiety, including emotional regulation
Reduce impulsive behaviours
See a reduction of symptoms of trauma, including dissociation and other mal-adaptive coping strategies
