Trauma Alchemy Training
An immersive training
for healers, yoga teachers, and trauma alchemists who are ready to activate their embodied intuition, align with their Soul’s sovereign truth, & become impactful certified Somatic Yoga Therapy® Practitioners
{Begins August 4th, 2022}
Welcome, my Sweet and Sensitive One
You are the one who feels so deeply and fully, at times it all feels like too much to bear.
You love so wholeheartedly, but as a result, take on all the burdens of your loved ones, and carry them on your shoulders as if they were your own.
You’ve been told, time and time again, that your emotions and needs are “too much”, that you are too much
You’ve been taught to numb your sensuality and pleasure, so you’ve stopped feeding your sacred erotic fire, allowing it to slowly burn out
You crave to sing and dance, to make your life a living art, yet have been conditioned to stay silent, to stay small, to dim your light. How dare you be FULL of your Self?
You’re burnt out and exhausted from having to shape-shift to accommodate everyone else, never yourself
Your jaw clenches and teeth grind at night as you hold in your sacred anger and existential frustration
You feel so much that is begging to be expressed, yet you can’t help but swallow all your feelings down into the tight, burning center of your throat
Your belly feels gnarled and twisted, as you try to suppress the nagging belief “I am not enough”
Maybe the more you try to keep up with the pace of modern life and all-of-the “shoulds” of society the more stressed and anxious you feel as a result.
The call towards liberation is pulsing in your bloodstream, but stifled beneath the pressure to “fit in”.
Your heart asks to sing a different song, a new song.
Beloved, if you’re here you might be called to…
✨Alchemize your sensitivity from a curse into a superpower
✨Embody compassionate ferocity and nourishing boundaries
✨Process undigested traumas that are keeping you small, silent, and stuck in the past
✨Be guided by the sensual wisdom of your body
✨Tune out the noise and instead listen to the voice of your inner wisdom
✨Sit at the throne of your heart and become the sovereign ruler of your life
✨Cleanse your emotional waters into the vital, life-giving streams of Love
✨Liberate the energetic blocks from your body that are keeping you in chronic holding patterns full of tension and pain
✨Liberate your voice! Express yourself!
✨Be seen and adored in your authentic flavor of movement and dance
✨Be celebrated as the powerful healer you already are
✨Hold the torch of sacred light as you teach, guide, and illuminate the way for the people you are destined to serve
It all begins with your Sacred Body.
Your body’s wisdom is the cauldron where the process of somatic healing takes place. Your sensations, emotions, and intuition are your Sacred Guides.
This is a journey into the Feminine Path where you’ll be guided “down and in” to build deeper intimacy and trust with yourself, creating an inner radiance even more luminous than the full moon.
You’ll be guided to release all that no longer serves your highest good – all the blockages, patterns, and residues trapped in your Nervous System that keep you at arm’s length from your deepest desires for your health, love life, relationships, and career.
Welcome to Trauma Alchemy Training, a sacred initiation to become the Healer you were born to be.
What is Somatic Yoga Therapy®
Somatic Yoga Therapy® is an individualized healing process that encourages you to drop into a deep connection to the intuitive wisdom within your own body.
From this wisdom connection, organic impulses for healing naturally arise. These impulses are supported by a myriad of tools and resources from the yoga tradition (such as movement, sound healing, energy work, or breathwork) that encourage a full discharge of energy.
As this energetic release begins, more Soul Power (a.k.a. Self-energy, “Youness”, shakti, or aliveness) is able to take root in the body. This act of “Soul Retrieval” supports the deepest, most sustained healing possible, and supports you in embodying your fullest self-expression in life, love, health, and beyond.
There are 4 foundational pillars in the
Somatic Yoga Therapy® process:
Rescue
Replenish
Release
Reclaim

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll learn in the Trauma Alchemy Training:
Trauma Alchemy Training blends the art of somatics, yoga and embodiment practices, Ayurvedic Medicine, energy work, sound healing, breathwork, yoga nidra, transformative ritual and ceremony, and more.
Trauma is all the life experiences that were too much, too fast, too soon for you to integrate.
These experiences stay in the body until they feel safe enough to process and metabolize.
The Trauma Alchemy Training is an intuitive and trauma-sensitive journey, and we honor the pace that your body wants to set for healing.
We allow the wisdom of the body to guide our work together so that your wise, intelligent body has all it needs for healing.
This training is your container and guide to embodying and reclaiming your natural state of integration and health.
Safety, ease & love are our guiding forces for your organic healing.
Somatic Yoga Therapy® supports you in accessing your inner wisdom rather than an external authority prescribing yoga postures or meditations. In Somatic Yoga Therapy®, your sensations become your guides to unlock access to your inner blueprint for healing. We trust the wisdom of the Soma and the nectar of the body to lead us on the healing journey from the inside out (rather than outside in). It is a practice rooted in Sahaja, spontaneous and intuitive movement toward healing and wholeness that can only be accessed inside your own self.

It is for you if you…
Are ready and willing to dive into the deep, sometimes scary waters of their emotions and body and to fully heal what is keeping them stuck.

Teach and practice yoga or other embodied healing arts, yet feel there is something “missing” in your practice
This is not for you if...
Are looking for a quick fix and want to feel better without doing the required work
Do not have the time and energy for an immersive and deep program, designed to deeply transform all aspects of life
Are not ready or willing to change
Want a traditional yoga training focused on asana and group classes
Are not ready to confront, hold, and nourish trauma that lives within themselves and others
Are looking for a prescriptive and linear method of healing, rather than an organic and intuitive process
Prerequisites:
✔ Yoga teacher training certification or experience (highly suggested)

At least one year of consistent yoga/dance/meditation/spiritual practice

Additionally, I have increased my compassion and empathy to an even deeper level and am able to hold a safe, nonjudgmental space for others. I have digested the information for the therapeutic yoga tools and feel like they are now easily accessible for myself and for me to share with others. I have a deeper understanding of how multi-cultural explanations of the energetic system overlap.
I am able to bridge Western and Eastern medicine to best help others with their specific, individual needs to support them in their healing process. I have embraced change, set and held personal boundaries, and improved my ability to approach communication from a compassionate, open, curious space.
My biggest realization has been that suppressing my innate, intuitive knowledge has not served me in life. Tapping into my intuition has been a magical experience opening a Pandora’s box of knowledge I already had that I didn’t know I already possessed.
Over the duration of the course, spots in my body that hold tension and pain have let go of some of their charge. If they flare up, I am able to bring acceptance to them and use tools to help bring comfort and support. My body is also able to shift from apical breathing to a deeper, calmer breath more easily. My body feels a deep, calm peace more often.
My heart is more open and able to radiate love, compassion and kindness. It knows when it starts to close off in self protection and explores ways to support itself in order to shine its light brightly.
My energy has gone through many cycles during this course. Each time it felt blocked, I was able to release stuck negative energy and energy that wasn’t mine, which facilitated change and a return to a high vibration energy.
My all time favorite part of the training has been connecting with a tribe of beautiful, powerful, knowledgeable women who honor, support, and celebrate everyone’s authentic self.
I would absolutely recommend this training to a friend! This course will bring about change in your life, will help you deepen your relationship with yourself and others, and will enhance your understanding of the gift that is yoga and somatic work. It will shift you into a space of deeper connection with yourself, other humans, nature, and all beings. It will help you overcome blockages to open up pathways that you may have not thought possible or even expected.
Hi, I’m Kaity
Thank you for your curiosity about the Trauma Alchemy Training.
I know you’ve landed on this webpage for a reason. There is a voice inside you longing for a soulful sanctuary to support you and the humans you’re destined to serve in thriving beyond recovery, into full reclamation of Soul Power.
As a survivor of sexual trauma, I understand the shadow realm of trauma through my own hands on experience. I’ve also held space for hundreds of individuals to heal and recover in my work as a Somatic Yoga Therapist.
I firmly believe that you are your own healer. Trauma Alchemy Training is here to offer you tools, support, guidance, and space for alchemizing trauma into your greatest gifts and super powers.
If you feel blocked in loving yourself deeply, feel stuck around manifesting your dreams into reality, want to have better sex and relationships, want to feel more passionately alive, and want to stop feeling small and powerless in your life, THEN this is the space for you.

F.A.Q
Do I have to join all of the modules?
In addition, all modules must be taken in order, because each module builds on the previous modules content. For example, you can’t take module 4 without taking 1-3 before hand.
Should you join for some of the modules and decide to pause your training until the following year, we cannot guarantee the program formatting or module structure will remain the same.
How much homework is there between modules?
What is required for certification?
How much of the course is online?
They are spacious and experiential to prevent zoom fatigue AND to give you the deepest learning experience possible. Breaks, pacing, and self care are very important parts of this professional training.
Our online classes are are often not simply lectures, but engaging and healing containers for you to practice methods and apply new knowledge for your highest growth and evolution.
I can't make the live classes and calls. Can I still participate?
Please get in touch if you’d like to join but aren’t sure you’ll be able to make the live classes. Our contact information is at the bottom of this page.
How much does the embodiment retreat cost?

Can people outside of the program attend the retreat?
The retreat is an additional expense for travel and lodging – see above.
Upon completion of the training, what will I be certified in?
I don't have my 200 hour yoga teacher training. Can I still join?
That being said, as long as you have a basic background with yoga (philosophically as well as physically), the healing arts, and/or teaching movement/meditation in a professional setting we will consider you in our enrollment process.

When the training first began, I was doing a lot of internal work, especially ancestral work that was POWERFUL, but it was very heavy and I didn’t have a lot of lightness and joy in my life. I felt very stuck, heavy, confused, and unclear. I felt like I was working so hard but not moving at all.
Now, I FEEL in my body more, I understand the language of my body and know how to listen and translate it into language. I know how to follow sensation and that helps me in all aspects of life because it helps me trust my body and its signals. I feel much more open and accepting of all of my emotions and beliefs, even the heavy ones. I feel more compassionate towards myself.
I feel more confident and fierce. I’ve embodied my jaguar queen energy more deeply. I know myself more. I also feel like I am a better listener and am more confident working 1-to-1 with people. I understand the nervous system and foundational principles of yoga more.
My favorite part of the training has been THE PEOPLE and community. I also loved how each module is a different theme, that there were in-person modules as well, a retreat in Mexico, the Somatic Yoga Therapy® demo sessions, and all the amazing teachers – it felt like a treat to learn from so many people. Kaity’s teaching style in general is one of the best parts, she is so patient, clear, and knowledgeable.
I highly recommend this program! Kaity is an amazing, intentional teacher, the material is high-quality and it prepares you to work with others in a very impactful way and feel confident in doing so. Even if you don’t do this to be a “Somatic Yoga Therapy® Practitioner” just the personal, spiritual growth from the training is so powerful. You’ll make friends for life.
