Teacher Mentorship Labs | Somatic Exercise Coach

Hi! I'm Alyson.

I am the Creator & Founder of Yoga Somatics Online. My specialized Yoga Alliance-Approved Continuing Education Trainings weave twenty years of teaching and experience from a professional contemporary dance artist to fitness instructor, and somatic movement practitioner. I provide yoga teachers with essential tools to boost their Teacher’s Toolkit with Somatic Muscle Science.

Here’s The Thing

Somatic movement isn’t just about unraveling trauma- it’s neuromuscular education.

Let’s talk about something that affects how you move every day—your muscles! At Yoga Somatics we focus not only on how flexible and strong your muscles are,  but how well they actually listen to your brain.

That’s what Somatic Muscle Science is about. It’s not about doing more—it’s about doing smarter, working with your somatic nervous system, not against it.

Yoga Somatics Trainings help you develop a relationship with your body-mind so you can move better, with more freedom, agility, creativity, and core resilience.

Dharma

We cannot deny reality but we CAN influence the present.

I'll let you in on a secret: I never wanted to be a yoga teacher! But Life guides us toward our purpose—and yoga did that for me. A series of injuries sustained in my mid-thirties during other peoples' yoga teacher trainings redirected my heart’s passion as a contemporary dancer and chreographer. Now, I inspire others to move using their soma, intuition, and creativity with science-based somatic movement, to unravel physical and emotional tension in order to live with more personal freedom.

I live in Montréal, my hometown. I speak français, and I love nature, outer space, and the ocean, dance, impressionist paintings, and riding my bicycle, gardening, travel, a really good espresso daily, and walks by the river no matter the Canadian weather.

Move with Me

Dive into specialized somatic-inspired movement.

As a somatic guide, I work deeply with you to "Deconstruct and Reconstruct" physical and emotional muscle tension through my self-paced Yoga Somatics Teacher Trainings, 1:1 Teacher Mentorship Labs, and 1:1 Somatic Exercise Coaching.

Known as the "teacher who does things differently" my carefully crafted sequences leave students with more knowledge both physically and emotionally.

Get ready for nervous system hacks that fast-track strength and flexibility, vagal toning for nervous system regulation, myofascial self-care, and somatic release exercises to dissolve root causes of pain. Deemed a "vinyasa witch", my students look forward to strong, sweaty flows, with a creative flare.

See you on the virtual mat.
