Steph Strauss

As a Somatic Practitioner, Embodied Movement + Mindfulness Facilitator and Buddhist Practitioner, Steph’s mission is to guide clients towards finding safety within and developing resources to cultivate a compassionate relationship with themselves and their body. Through her own lived experience, she’s discovered that by connecting to the body in the present moment, you can access your inner wisdom and natural capacity for self-healing, leading to a deeper sense of wholeness.

In her private Somatic Experiencing Exploratory Sessions, she integrates a rich blend of body-centered practices, including Somatic Experiencing, parts work, polyvagal theory, embodied movement, breathwork, mindfulness meditation and Buddhist concepts. This flexible, trauma-informed approach is personalized to meet each client’s unique needs, offering a space for deep self-discovery, exploration and growth.

Steph teaches 2 embodied movement classes each week.

1. Somatic Flow on Wednesdays from 5:30-6:30pm (learn more HERE)

2. The RSI Method on Sundays from 9:30-11am (learn more HERE)

In her weekly embodied movement practices, she weaves together a dynamic blend of body-centered approaches, including elements of Somatic Experiencing, yoga, dance, vocal activation and breathwork. These trauma-informed and experiential methods focus on listening to the body’s signals and fostering a deeper connection with yourself in the present moment. It encourages participants to explore self-expression, cultivate body awareness, develop self-compassion and engage with their nervous system in a way that promotes self regulation and healing without needing to engage in past trauma. You’ll have the freedom to move at your own pace, receive support and connect with others in a brave, non-judgmental space.

These body-oriented practices often bring about profound transformations in areas such as health, relationships, career and overall well-being, fostering a greater sense of purpose, aliveness and fulfillment.

It would be her privilege to support you in exploring your inner world and demonstrating how healing through the body and gaining greater access to joy, is not only possible but within reach.

May you consider the possibilities of where your body can lead you.
