About this Event
Trauma-Informed Yoga:
Reclaim your strength. Restore your peace.
Hosted by Healing Hands Reiki & Spiritual Development Inc., this class offers a safe and supportive space for veterans and trauma survivors to reconnect with their bodies, calm the mind, and rediscover balance after life’s challenges.
Guided by trauma-informed principles, each session incorporates mindful movement, grounding breathwork, and gentle meditation to release tension and promote emotional well-being.
Participants are encouraged to move at their own pace, honoring personal boundaries and choice at every moment. Participants are guided through grounding postures, breath awareness, and meditation techniques that help release stored tension and promote emotional balance.

Classes focus on creating a supportive environment where choice, consent, and personal agency are honored at all times.

Instructor: Brianna Nicole
Brianna discovered the practice of yoga in Little Rock, Arkansas, during her first duty station in the Air Force. Being away from family and friends in this new chapter of her life, she searched for a new experience by attending her first yoga class in 2016. Her search for something new became the connection to community, self, and a deep practice. She began attending a weekly class at a local studio because the benefits of yoga and its philosophies became undeniable in both her mental and physical well-being. During the next six years of her Air Force career, all she could think of was becoming a yoga teacher. She knew how much yoga had grounded her, while increasing her awareness, and wanted to offer yogic teachings to others.
In 2022, she separated from the Air Force and shortly after attended Kashi Atlanta Urban Yoga Ashram’s yoga teacher training, where she earned her 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification in 2023. Brianna’s approach to yoga involves incorporating various breathing techniques with Vinyasa and Hatha yoga, offering a practice that flows through and gently holds postures. With a background in psychology and her certification in Trauma-Informed Yoga, she creates mindful classes to facilitate a trauma-informed environment, offering a safe space to deepen your practice.
