Traditional kickboxing can trigger trauma survivors and push them outside their window of tolerance. In this session I will teach you the key differences between traditional and trauma-informed kickboxing. After a brief theory lesson you will be invited to express your inner fighter and experience a trauma-informed kickboxing class. You're going to feel the power of the 'push kick', let off some steam and have an action plan to articulate your needs to your local martial arts gym. This session is the first in a series of 10 which is exclusively open to Embodiment Conference participants. For a special price you will learn the full spectrum of kickboxing techniques and redefine your image of yourself as a badass warrior.
