This training is an invitation to return to yourself

To pause.
To listen.
To remember the wisdom that moves quietly beneath the noise.

This training invites you to slow down — not only in body, but in being — to explore what happens when we truly rest and allow the body’s intelligence to lead.

Whether you come as a teacher or a practitioner, you’ll learn to hold space with presence, confidence, and compassion.

About the Training

The 50-Hour Advanced Restorative & Somatic Facilitation Training is a 3-day immersive weekend in Brisbane, supported by online materials and guided reflections.

It weaves together the principles of Restorative Yoga, Somatic Awareness, and Yoga Nidra, offering a deeply experiential approach to rest, embodiment, and teaching.

Rooted in over a decade of full-time teaching and inspired by the wisdom of Judith Hanson Lasater, Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, Tracee Stanley, and Octavia Raheem, this training honours the nervous system as our greatest teacher — and rest as a radical act of remembering.

Who This Training Is For

  • Yoga teachers seeking to expand into restorative and somatic facilitation

  • Practitioners wanting to deepen their personal rest practice

  • Wellness professionals drawn to trauma-aware, body-led work

  • Anyone ready to integrate nervous system literacy into daily life and teaching

You do not need to teach yoga to attend — only the curiosity to listen and the willingness to rest.

The Weekend Journey

Day 1

Foundations of Rest & Somatic Awareness

Learn the nervous system language of rest and how the body finds safety. Experience guided somatic practices, foundational restorative setups, and evening Yoga Nidra.

Day 2

Presence, Language & Facilitation

Explore how your tone, pacing, and energy shape a space of rest. Practice trauma-aware cueing, sequencing for emotional balance, and voice work for embodied facilitation.

Day 3

Integration & Embodied Teaching

Integrate everything you’ve learned through a full restorative sequence, small-group facilitation, reflection, and closing circle.

Between sessions, you’ll have access to online recordings, reflection prompts, and optional facilitation practice for certification.

What You’ll Learn

  • The physiology of rest through a polyvagal lens — safety, connection, and regulation

  • Foundations of somatic awareness and interoceptive listening

  • How to facilitate rest with presence and pacing rather than performance

  • Language and cueing for trauma-aware and inclusive guidance

  • Principles of sequencing stillness — creating short and extended restorative sessions

  • Yoga Nidra foundations — structure, Sankalpa, and voice as medicine

  • Embodied self-care and sustainable teaching practices

You will leave with both the inner and outer tools to guide restorative and somatic experiences that restore balance, safety, and calm —

in yourself and others.

 Certification & Accreditation

Upon completion, you’ll receive a 50-Hour Advanced Restorative & Somatic Facilitation Certificate, recognized by Yoga Alliance and Yoga Australia for CPD hours.

Teachers can log these hours toward Continuing Education requirements.
Practitioners attending for personal immersion will receive a certificate of completion.
