About this event

Join Cori from KOA for a 60 minute workshop every 2nd Thursday, 9:30-10:30 am from 26 September 2024. Together, the group will explore different nervous system regulating practices through a somatic lens.

Each session will include a short introduction to the nervous system, followed by somatic experiential practices which are intended to support the nervous system in feeling more settled and regulated. Each workshop will have a different theme and focus. Somatic practices can be a powerful resource in managing nervous system reactions e.g. stress, tensions, anxiety and more. Join Cori and gain more awareness and understanding of what practices work for you and your body.

Cori is a trauma informed somatic and integrative practitioner with a diverse background in somatic work, embodiment, yoga, mindfulness, sound and more. The sessions are inclusive and all are welcome; no experience needed.

Please be advised that the studio is only accessible by stairs, however all other spaces can be accessed directly. If you have any concerns regarding accessibility please contact Cori and she can confirm the room that is being used.

This is a community based offering and all donations will go to the Salisbury Centre to support the wonderful work they do in the community. You can book via eventbrite and there is a sliding scale available to make the offering inclusive to all. The scale is £5, £10, £15 or pay what you can. Donations allow the Salisbury Centre to keep flourishing and offering all these wonderful community sessions.
