Move through somatic practices to address and release old traumas so you’ll have more choice in your responses under pressure — as you heal from within, and cultivate your own sense of safety and resilience

How is trauma holding you back?
Is it firing off protective survival reactions under pressure — even when there’s no threat present at all?
Is it pinning you to old belief systems that are sabotaging your progress toward your desires for the future?
Would you like to set your trauma-founded reactions aside — and gently coax new responses forward... to empower yourself toward new, desired experiences?

Our Soma is predictably affected by trauma, shame, and survival reactions. These reflexes (like fight or flight, for example) are triggered by embodied conditioning that comes from trauma...
The way we embody trauma is part of our shape — for individuals and groups.
Collective somas — the embodied beliefs, culture, norms, and dynamics of a group — include behaviors created by socially inflicted trauma… when safety, dignity, or belonging were threatened.
Understanding our body-first trauma-based reactions that cause imbalances, and practicing new responses, give us choice in how we respond under pressure. This process changes our individual and collective shaping to better align with our values.
As you'll discover, resolving trauma requires repetition and practice to transform the experiences that built it...
Join us for Somatics, Trauma & Resilience, a transformational course designed for leaders and coaches.
Over four days, Staci K. Haines, Strozzi instructor and author of The Politics of Trauma: Somatics, Healing and Social Justice, will guide you to address your existing traumas and practice transformative tools for healing and resilience.
You’ll learn to identify when trauma is playing a role in a client’s experience, how to guide them yourself, or when a trauma specialist is needed...

What You’ll Receive in this Powerful 4-Day Intensive
settings
Whether you’re an individual looking for a way to confront and overcome your own trauma, or a coach or leader seeking to hone skills and develop tools to support others in their journey — you’ll work through the body to address and overcome historical patterns of behavior caused by trauma. This includes your deepest internalized reactions, including shame, distrust, dissociation, and a need to protect.
Staci’s 4-day intensive course is for coaches, leaders, and individuals who want to increase their own resilience, support their clients’ healing, and successfully address deeper aspects of transformation.
Transformation is the ability to take new actions aligned with your values and vision — even under the same old pressures.
Somatics understands the workings of both individual and social trauma. Throughout this course, you’ll increase resilience, transform survival reactions into new choices, and learn to "blend" with things that have long been withheld — so they can complete and mend.

I had forgotten what it feels like to accept and feel safety and support in my body. I now have practices to welcome those in and assess trauma with more ground.

Spend four days exploring depth practices for healing personal and collective trauma and shame — and emerge more resilient, with an inner sense of safety.

“Our shape is developed in interaction with our experiences and environments. Our adaptations to these experiences and environments—both resilience and survival strategies as well as social and cultural practices—become embodied and then automatic...This opens some choices, and reduces others.”

"I am more prepared and aware of how I must shift from being ready for healing to recognizing my inherent power to heal myself and others."

"I am blown away. The arc of learning, the pedagogy, the percentage of experiential and intellectual learning, the activities, the appropriate amount of breaks, the thoughtfulness about race, etc. were all incredible. I learned something new about myself at almost every single activity. I gathered so many beautiful practices to try with my beloved and with my coach! Several days after, I am noticing a huge difference in my choice making, my compassion for my comrades, and most amazingly- my willingness to blend graciously with myself."
