Our students love MVP's
approach to learning









The course integrated so many aspects of trauma informed practice, I enjoyed the evolution of the content.

Didem C.

I enjoyed this Trauma Informed course. I am a neuroscientist and psychologist as well and I appreciated the gentle and easy-to-understand explanations on the nervous system. What I found most helpful was the suggestions different yoga poses to do and not to do. I appreciated that the poses are separated by types of trauma folks may have experienced.

Some of the biggest take-aways from the Trauma Informed course were as follows: 1. Never teach what you don't know well, 2. Hold space for students/1:1 client, but never offered advice and instead bring them back to the Yoga Sutras, 3. the importance of neutralizing polarity and its role not only in practice but extending that out into everyday life, and 4. having a "clean container" prior to working with any student or client. These are just a few and I truly enjoyed this course. Thank you!

I enjoyed the easy to understand format of the course and especially found Michelle's video lectures helpful because I could pause to write notes or reflect on something that she said.

I greatly appreciated the Trauma Informed course offering. Before my journey with MVP, I hadn't heard or experienced trauma-informed yoga. As a yoga practitioner, there have been many times I was activated by something in a yoga class. Mainly by teachers who lacked the skills and sensitivity offered in this course. I'm grateful to have this knowledge and certification that have added to my skills as a teacher and will expand the experience of my students.
I loved that this course covered a wide range of situations and experiences that could benefit from the trauma-informed lens. It was thought provoking and expansive in my process as a teacher.

In the Trauma Informed course I appreciate the thoughts on regulating the sympathetic nervous system. I also loved the idea that we are not a therapist but we are encouraged to hold space and encourage our students to do the work.
