The mission
This training exists to cultivate authentic, embodied transformation. Rooted in trauma-informed principles, it invites participants to deepen nervous system awareness and emotional intelligence. YogaUnion believes facilitation begins with personal embodiment.
Through breath and somatic practices, students reconnect with their internal landscape while developing the capacity to hold safe, attuned spaces.
The mission is to bridge modern neuroscience and ancient embodied wisdom into practical, grounded leadership.
This immersion strengthens clarity, compassion, and ethical facilitation, empowering you to guide meaningful transformation with presence and integrity.
The course
This 50-hour program blends breathwork modalities, somatic movement, trauma-awareness frameworks, and nervous system regulation tools. Students explore emotional release processes, fascia-based movement, co-regulation techniques, and integration practices.

Participants develop clarity in guiding breath-somatic sessions safely, adaptively, and confidently in one-on-one or group environments.
The focus
The focus centers on embodied awareness and trauma-informed facilitation. Students learn to track nervous system states, differentiate breathwork styles, and recognize signs of over-activation.
Through somatic self-practice, shaking, rocking, intuitive movement, and fascia release, tension dissolves, and regulation deepens. Emphasis is placed on boundaries, consent, emotional intelligence, and ethical communication.
The goal is to cultivate facilitators who respond skillfully and compassionately, grounded in clarity and safety.

How your days will unfold
Morning somatics and embodiment practice
Begin each day with gentle somatic movement, breathwork, and emotional release practices. These sessions awaken the body, regulate the nervous system, and ground awareness. Through shaking, intuitive movement, fascia release, and conscious breath, stored tension softens. Morning practice establishes safety and presence, creating internal stability before deeper facilitation work begins.
Breakfast and self-reflection
After practice, enjoy nourishing plant-based meals followed by journaling or quiet reflection. This space supports emotional integration and nervous system regulation, allowing insights to settle before theoretical sessions.
Sharing circles and breath-somatics theory
Late mornings combine reflective dialogue with scientific and trauma-informed theory. Explore how breath shapes emotional states, how memory lives in the body, and how regulation supports healing. Experiential demonstrations deepen understanding.
Lunch and integration break
Midday offers nourishment and rest. This pause supports bottom-up processing and embodied integration, reinforcing safety and nervous system balance.
Interactive lessons and teaching practice
Afternoons focus on facilitation skills, peer practice, and real-time feedback. Students guide breath-somatic sessions, refine boundaries, and strengthen ethical space-holding techniques.
Group sharing circle
The day concludes with an intimate integration circle, supporting emotional processing, connection, and grounded closure before rest.
Dinner
Evenings close with a comforting, plant-based dinner, crafted to support recovery and relaxation.
The chefs combine Greek culinary inspiration, seasonal produce, and nutrient-rich superfoods, creating a flavorful dining experience that nurtures body and spirit while celebrating Mytikas’ unique essence.
