Teachers and Students - All levels welcome!
In this level 2 training, we deepen our practice and understanding of Yin Somatics. We will continue to draw on insights from a variety of body-based somatic therapies, illuminating readings, anatomical teachings, subtle body traditions, modern neuroscience, and contemplative practice.
Level 1 began with foundational practices of somatic awareness: developing a felt sense of inhabiting one’s own body from the inside out. We attended to the cellular body—the fluid, breathing quality of every cell as a site of consciousness and intelligence.
In level 2, we continue with more complex sequencing and further titration and pendulation—gently touching edges of sensation and experience. We’ll explore the body’s tissue layers (dhatus), especially the skeletal system (asthi) and muscle (mamsa), as primary sources of support, grounding, and self-structure. Our bones are not merely mechanical scaffolding but a living, mineral-rich tissue that carries the quiet intelligence of our deepest potency. Muscle is the tissue of movement, but it is also the tissue of held emotion, interrupted action, and chronic adaptive response.
In this module, our somatic inquiry focuses on repatterning the nervous system at its root with the earliest developmental movement patterns through which we learn to receive support and meet the world, such as yielding and pushing. We will also continue to examine the flow of Prana, Qi, and breath, focusing on the shoulders, arms, and rib cage, which form the body’s architecture for reaching, protecting, and expressing.
We hope you can join us to deepen your practice and study! This course is for people interested in healing, developing a personal somatic practice, or offering this work within teaching contexts.
