RESET PROGRAMME

All classes aim to be inclusive and based around trauma-informed principles.

All abilities welcome.

Mats and chairs (for chair yoga) are provided for each class.

This individualised programme is run by two experienced and certified practitioners

Emily: a certified and registered Trauma-informed Yoga Teacher (Your Signature Yoga)

Juan: a certified PT, nutritionist, and Martial Arts, Boxing and Self-Defence Instructor (Nodoka Martial Arts)

Choose from a fusion of options, such as:

• Releasing stress on the bag/pads, in a fun freeing way

• Somatic movement connecting to your own body through breath and movement

• Stillness, presence, and awareness with restorative yoga poses, breathwork, and meditation

Tension, stress and trauma are not just felt in the mind, but also in the body.

Movement and connecting to your body can support to release these imprints on the body, and that is why at the Nodoka Studio in Blaydon, we offer the RESET Programme.

We combine effective techniques of movement from 2 different areas - yoga and martial arts - which we adapt for all abilities to access, to release stress and trauma.

"The body keeps the score: If the memory of trauma is encoded in our senses, in muscle tension, and in anxiety, then the body must also be involved in the healing process."

'The Body Keeps the Score' by Bessel van der Kolk

The RESET Programme focuses on 3 elements:

Release

Reset

Re-Connect

Please know you can always reach out on what's app / phone for a chat about this programme before you book if you would like to know more

The first session is with Emily and it is recommended to be 60mins, so we have time to get to know each other (over a coffee/tea), and then can have a 45-30mins session of movement/stillness. This gives you the opportunity to try what this programme has to offer, with no need to feel obliged to continue, as it has to feel right for you at this moment in time.

Sessions are usually 60mins, and we can split the session into two halves (movement and stillness) or each session can have a specific focus - all depends on what is best for you. Whatever you choose, there is always time for tea/coffee/ refreshments after each session!
