A 50 hour training for yoga teachers, movement facilitators and body-nerds curious to journey into the structures beneath the skin.In this training, we explore somatic teaching and anatomy - not only from a theoretical point of view, but as something we can sense in the body and connect to in our practice.
We will dive through the layers of the body’s inner landscape to discover both the different systems and explore the felt qualities that live beneath the surface in our body-mind.
Why Somatics?
SOMA refers to body and ‘somatics’ to the living experience of being, here and now. Through a somatic approach, we bring awareness to the felt sense of the body and create space for intuitive movement and asanas/postures to rise from within. In a world that often emphasizes on performance and perfection, somatic movement invites us to listen and connect to the inherent wisdom of the body. In this approach, anatomy becomes something we experience and EMBODY.
WHO IS THIS FOR?
This training is for everyone curious about enlivening anatomy. It is for yoga teachers, movement practitioners, dancers, facilitators, and anyone curious about bringing more embodiment into their practice or teaching.
So if you wish to:
- Deepen your anatomical understanding,
- Develop more embodied and intuitive cueing and guiding
- Integrate somatic practices into classes,
- Strengthen connection to your body and inner landscape.
This training is for you.

Structure:
Each morning begins with a short introduction to the day’s anatomical focus, followed by a longer practice integrating meditation, somatization, intuitive movement and asanas to awaken the felt sense first.
After practice we gather in a circle to share our experience and give language to our felt sense, which is an essential foundation for somatic cuing and teaching.
In the afternoons we dive deeper into the theoretical aspect of anatomy, supported by images, videos and supplementary exercises to connect to the different layers and systems of the body.
Throughout the training, we will also explore the use of music, curation of asanas and practice teaching in smaller groups using somatic language.

Testimonials:
“I was guided by Janni through the two anatomy modules during a teacher training and it was definitely an eye-opening experience for me! Janni has this great, genuine energy and pours her whole heart into teaching. She helped me realize how incredible our body is at operating all the different complex systems every day.
Now I move in new directions with a fresh and new level of awareness. What I loved most was her authenticity and that she’s deeply passionate about the subject, explains complex topics in a simple way using great visuals and constantly demonstrates everything on her own body. If you want to really understand your body and enrich your practice, you will absolutely love learning from her!”
Sandra
“My experience of training with Janni was like a breath of fresh air, quite literally. Through her guidance I learned to breathe more naturally and understand my body in a way I never have before. I feel immense gratitude for having had Janni as a teacher and I will always remember what I learned with her. She sparked a fire of interest in my own body that I will be feeding for years to come.”
Sarah
“What Janni offers is a genuinely new lens on anatomy. She braids precise anatomical knowledge with embodied presence and an understanding of how it serves our spiritual and somatic practices. The result is something that doesn’t just inform the mind — it lands in the body. She has a rare gift for expanding what we think we know and returning it to us richer, more alive, and deeply meaningful for our path.”
Tammy
“Had the absolute pleasure of diving into the world of the body with Janni, she makes it such an easy and interesting journey by showing explanatory videos and models that really help you understand and dissect every movement that you make which massively help with the embodiment process because you can then imagine everything that is happening inside of your body. Her joyful spirit and detailed teaching makes what could be a complicated topic a very enjoyable one and really helps you learn and understand your body on a completely different level.”
