| Extra Info | : | Join us for a practical, inspiring introduction to working with Neurodivergent Bodies, including tools to integrate into your practice. This workshop will give practitioners the confidence to notice moments where they can integrate the tools of body, breath and movement creatively into their current practice, right away, in person and online. Lorna will present both theory, highlighting female voices, and practical tools to deepen understanding of the science behind working with Body, Breath, and Movement, through a neuro-affirmative, trauma therapy lens.
