Neurogenic Sunset Yoga at the BoathouseThis four-week session follows the traditional Neurogenic Yoga progression of activating muscles involved in the body’s protective response before moving into tremor positions. This June, however, we will take a unique approach to preparing the body for tremor positions by spending the first half of each class exploring movement patterns specifically designed to support fascial health.
Fascia plays a vital role in whole-body communication and nervous system function. While most yoga styles include some fascia-supportive movements, they often address only a small portion of the movement diversity needed for healthy, adaptable fascial tissue. This NeuroFascial approach is designed to create greater ease, mobility, and communication throughout the body, preparing you even more effectively for the deep tremor release work that takes place during the second half of each class.

Who’s This Class For?
Neurogenic Yoga™ is especially suitable for those experiencing chronic pain, daily stress & long held tension, PTSD. It is also however an opportunity to simply shake off the stress from your day or week as a means of maintaining healthy nervous system balance.
About The Class
Neurogenic Yoga™ is a revolutionary technique to heal trauma and reduce stress. It combines yoga poses and breathing with the body’s body’s natural therapeutic shaking response. The human (and animal) nervous system has an instinctual shaking response that is genetically coded to help us discharge long-held tension and trauma. It is an unconscious muscle contraction that restores the body to wholeness after stressful or traumatic events.
Vibration and shaking in the body automatically occurs when the nervous system identifies threat. Unfortunately the negative social constructs that see shaking and tremoring, as showing vulnerability or weakness, mean that this innate release mechanism is conditioned out of us at a very early age. Neurogenic Yoga reawakens the body’s intrinsic release mechanism to optimize health and wellness.
Class will begin with a 30 minute series of movements. Modifications are offered to ensure this portion is suitable for all bodies and experience levels. Absolutely no yoga experience or ability is needed. These poses will stretch and tire the psoas, and other muscles that are involved in the contraction response that occurs when the nervous system experiences stress, or feels unsafe.
Yoga movements are followed by a lying posture that safely introduces neurogenic tremoring to release physical and emotional stress and tension. Vibration usually begins in the legs and may spread throughout the entire body to release long held tension. This method is based on Dr. David Berceli’s technique of Trauma Releasing Exercises® (TRE®).
