Somatic Stretch & Soothe Program

A gentle movement program for all women – particularly those recovering from trauma
This is a very special program – held outdoors in the grounds of the sanctuary, surrounded by our beautiful herd of horses.
Your program facilitator, Shianne, will guide your through this gentle, small group program for which no experience or particular level of fitness is needed. Shianne is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with over ten years’ experience.
Sessions incorporate Mindfulness, Yoga and Pilates practices to teach you how to:
- control your breath
- strengthen your entire body
- improve your balance
- feel calm, centered & happy
All equipment is provided and light refreshments are served at the end of the class.
The program is held at the sanctuary (26 Fellowship Drive, Doonan) and there are multiple rounds throughout the year.
Scholarships are available for those who need them.
The cost for other participants is $40 ($5 per class) payable in advance (we will send you an invoice).
Applications are currently CLOSED. The next round will open in July 2023.
This program and all scholarships have been made possible through generous funding from Program Partner Petspiration Group and grant funding from Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal and the Department of Veteran’s Affairs.
