What Makes The Fight Back Project Trauma Informed
Person over Performance
Within classes I use provide minimal technical instructions as the objective is not for women to be able to perform the movements perfectly, but rather for them to discover the kinds of movements that will make them feel safe.
Empowered by Choice
I fundamentally understand that women that have experienced violence and trauma need to feel safe and in charge of their bodies. Therefore I have a strong focus on invitational language.
Understanding
I have a working understanding of trauma. Participants can feel comfortable knowing that there will be no shame, or even surprise from me if they are triggered, dissociate, freeze or leave their window of tolerance.
