Under the Surface: A Somatic and Psychotherapeutic Practice for Embodied Insight

Under the Surface: A Somatic and Psychotherapeutic Practice for Embodied Insight

Facilitator: Alanna La Cioppa (Guest Teacher) from Aligned by Alanna

Join Alanna La Cioppa — somatic coach, yoga teacher, and Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy student — for a one-off immersive experience that invites you to slow down, feel more, and explore what lives beneath the surface.

Rooted in psychotherapeutic principles and nervous system-aware practices, this two-hour class blends movement, mindfulness, and self-inquiry in a safe, grounded space.

We begin with a 15-minute meditation to settle into the body, followed by a 50-minute vinyasa flow — a strong yet spacious practice designed to awaken physical awareness and presence. Then, we’ll shift into a 45-minute somatic exploration, guiding you into deeper connection with sensation, emotion, and inner rhythm. We close with a 10-minute guided journaling practice to integrate what’s been stirred, softened, or surfaced.

This is more than a yoga…
