An hour of simple and all level Yoga will precede the teaching of the TRE technique. TRE is a gentle and effective practice that facilitates the release of the Psoas muscle and the letting go of physical and emotional tension. This workshop is suitable for all ages and levels of fitness. TRE is especially recommended for people who suffer from sciatica, lower back and hip pain and any problem related to a tight Psoas.

The TRE exercises are very helpful in diminishing many of the negative effects of traumatic experiences that tend to linger in the body, mind and spirit.

MARIA ALFARO teaches yoga classes and retreats in California and beyond since 1997. She has been teaching “Yoga and TRE” workshops since 2004.
