"This is an amazing, life-changing course. Highly recommended!!" - B.E.A.T. grad

BEAT somatic education trauma recovery classes are offered for small groups. It is applicable to all kinds of trauma, even the "normal" stuff we all live through from birth onwards.  It is not talk therapy; it is physical therapy for the mind and spirit.  Safety of participants - not only being safe, but also feeling safe - is stressed. People of all levels of physical fitness and ability may participate.

We also offer Train the Trainer classes for people who may incidentally or directly interact with survivors and who want to better understand and fulfill their needs.  We will use many of the same exercises and principles of Aikido to help develop a sense of relaxed awareness which will enrich your own life and work as well.  Martial Arts instructors, coaches, teachers, family members, even therapists can all benefit. 

Classes take place in our peaceful, private center.  Please contact Janice to join or arrange a class. All calls, messages and emails are strictly confidential. Download registration form.

To assess client symptoms severity before and after the program, we use the PCL-C Symptom Checklist.
