Long after an individual, or a community, has experienced traumatic events, these experiences may continue to affect our personal life and the social fabric of our communities. Traumatic experiences live not just in our memories, but also in the physical body itself, often affecting our ability to self-regulate.

Whether you are a yoga student, teacher, professional working with individuals or communities affected trauma, have personally felt affected by trauma, or are a curious human, you can benefit by better understanding the dynamics of how difficult situations affect the mind and body and how to use somatics & trauma-informed yoga as a complementary approach to healing.

During this training Samara will share knowledge of the science behind trauma responses, various ways to ground yourself and others when triggers occur, and
the principles and tools of somatics & trauma-informed yoga and self-regulation.

In the training, we will explore:
· Embodied understanding of somatics & trauma-informed yoga as a complementary approach to healing
· Scientific understanding of the physiological effects of
trauma on the mind and the body
· Principles of somatics & trauma-informed yoga and self-regulation
designed to cultivate resilience
· Tips and tools for yoga teachers to integrate into regular yoga classes
· Self-care for individuals working with trauma-affected populations

samara is an e-ryt, a somatic experiencing® practitioner, co-founder of the non-profit feet on the ground, has worked on community mental health and psychosocial education programs for the last decade, and taught yoga classes, trainings and workshops since 2014.​

A sound bath is an improvised concert played with the intent of releasing stress, and can facilitate energetic shifts in your mind and body to bring you into a more balanced state of being. Participants lay in a comfortable position on the floor (savasana), while Daniella plays the crystal bowls and gongs, accompanied by her vocal toning. You will be bathed in healing vibrations that help entrain your brain into a deeply relaxed state where physical, mental, and spiritual healing can take place.

please bring your own yoga mat. if you are sure you want pillows and blankets to make your experience cozy, please bring some from home! We have props, but the bath typically benefits from having more than we can supply for everyone.

Join Meg & Chase for a celebration of the Summer Solstice—an embodied ritual honoring the longest day of the year and the height of the sun’s energy. The solstice is a celebration of abundance, vitality, and illumination, inviting us to stand fully in our radiance while honoring the balance between action and rest, effort and surrender.

Together, we’ll move through 108 sun salutations as a collective moving meditation—building heat, clearing stagnation, and channeling the expansive energy of summer. We’ll round out our practice with an extended savasana and a lush sound bath, leaving you feeling open, renewed, and deeply attuned as we move into the season ahead.

In recent months, Meg and Chase have journeyed deeper into the intersection of ritual and yoga. A practice of challenging norms, softening edges, and expanding what’s possible. What has emerged is a space of living magick: rituals that steady the mind, movement that honors the body, and gatherings that weave community and offer refuge in a turbulent world.

If you have mala beads and would like to bring them along to keep count, please do!

Roots & Resonance workshops are guided, immersive, co-created experience – drawing from Vedic & Indigenous wisdom traditions to help you move out of the intellectual tinking mind into an expanded sense of connection: to self, to community, to body, and to the living world around you.

​Each 90-minute session is semi-structured and ceremonial in nature. Facilitators hold a trauma-informed space with nervous system tending woven throughout, so that you can arrive exactly as you are. No prior experience needed. All are welcome here—regardless of age, gender, culture, background, disability, or identity. Bring a journal and a few meaningful items connected with ancestors or energies (ex. sun, moon, plants, energy of love or trust) you want to call in (ex. stones, gems, figurines). Bring water. Light snacks will be available.​

What to expect:

Storytelling & Cultural Context

We open by grounding ourselves in Indigenous wisdom traditions — stories, teachings, and ways of knowing that have held communities across time and across cultures.

Multi-Sensory Embodiment Practices

Movement, voice, breath, and the senses invite you out of your thinking mind and into your body. Incense offerings accompany us throughout.

Reflective Journaling & Sharing

Space to turn inward, then come together in small or full group sharing — held with care and compassion.

Closing Ritual & Integration

We close with meaningful rituals you can carry into daily life — movement, song, altar or earth tending, gratitude practice — and group sharing to harvest and anchor what we’ve made together.

Themes Across the Series:

• Relationship with Land & Nature

• Ways to Reconnect with Ancestors and energies of the unseen or other than human kin (animals, plants, energy forces i.e., of love or belonging)

• Inner Child Healing through land, lineage, and community

• Animals as Guides

• Food, Song, Movement as Ceremony

This workshop is for you if…

• You feel overwhelmed and unanchored

• You have done the therapy work, retreats, and feel there is a missing element

• You feel disconnected from culture, intuition, imagination, or play

• You’re curious about integrating ancient wisdom into modern life

• You’re seeking meaningful, community-based experiences

• You’re curious about integrating ancient wisdom into modern life

• You prefer experiential learning over passive listening

This immersive training is designed to bridge Eastern wisdom with modern Western practice, offering yoga teachers and dedicated students a deeper connection to the heart of yoga beyond the physical postures.

Are you longing to integrate more traditional yogic teachings into your classes and personal practice? Curious about the symbolism of the Hindu deities and how mythology can create meaningful, authentic class themes? Seeking devotional practices that feel accessible, grounded, and transformative?

In this 50-hour training, we will explore how mantra, mythology, pranayama, meditation, and philosophy can become living practices — enriching both your teaching and your inner world.

Deeply inspired by my 300-hour training in Akhanda Yoga with my teacher Dr. Yogrishi Vishvketu of the Adi Nath Yoga lineage, alongside years of Svādhyāya (self-study), this training offers a practical and heartfelt approach to traditional yogic wisdom.

Throughout the training, you will learn:

• Foundational mantras including the Gayatri Mantra, Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, and Akhanda mantras
• Pranayama techniques to cultivate energy, balance, and presence
• Meditation practices to deepen awareness and inner stillness
• Simplified yet meaningful Hindu mythology and deity symbolism
• How to weave philosophy and devotional elements into your classes with authenticity and sensitivity
• The foundations of Akhanda Yoga, integrating mantra, philosophy, hatha asana, pranayama, and meditation

Together, we will explore the archetypes of the Hindu deities — not simply as stories, but as mirrors of the human experience and pathways into deeper self-understanding. Your training manual will include deity symbolism, mythology, and thematic inspiration to support both your personal practice and your teaching.

You will also be guided in practicing how to thoughtfully and powerfully invoke these energies within classes, rituals, meditation, and daily life.

A central focus of this training is meditation — a profound aspect of yoga often overlooked in modern practice. As my teacher often says, the purpose of asana is to prepare the body to sit in stillness. This training invites you to move beyond movement alone and into the quieter, deeper dimensions of yoga.

This is an opportunity to slow down, listen inwardly, cultivate devotion, and reconnect to your true nature. Whether you are a teacher seeking to enrich your offerings or a student longing for a more spiritual connection to yoga, this training will support you in developing practices that are both grounded in tradition and deeply personal.

Come ready to chant, breathe, study, reflect, and connect — to yourself, to lineage, and to the deeper heart of yoga.

This weekend immersion explores the subtler practices of Yoga as a path toward self-realization. Through asana, pranayama, mantra, nidra, and philosophy, we’ll experience a blend of embodied practice and contemplative self-inquiry.

Each day begins with more tangible physical practices before drifting into more subtle practices and discussions. We’ll practice a variety of pranayama and meditation techniques and refine our postures. We’ll reference and dissect the sacred texts including the Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and Upanishads. Open to all humans. 15 CEUs for registered teachers.

Ben Kalra leads trainings, workshops, and retreats internationally. His teaching integrates classical yogic philosophy with a creative yet structured approach to āsana rooted in Katonah and Vinyasa. He believes good teaching should be clear, honest, and occasionally humorous, and helps students cultivate a meaningful practice through storytelling, metaphor, adjustments, props, and space.
