Your Nervous System & Yoga

You already know yoga works. But do you know why?

This workshop goes beneath the surface of practice to explore the science your body has been running all along — and how yoga, when understood through that lens, becomes less of a routine and more of a conversation with your own physiology.

Dr. Kerry — Doctor of Physical Therapy, Herman & Wallace pelvic health specialist, and 500-hour yoga teacher — brings together neuroscience, somatic awareness, and embodied practice to explore how your autonomic nervous system shapes every breath, every hold, and every moment of stillness on the mat.

We'll cover:

  • How the autonomic nervous system works and why it matters in a yoga context

  • Polyvagal theory and what it actually means for how we regulate (and dysregulate)

  • The specific effects of breath, movement, and stillness on your nervous system

  • Why some practices restore you — and why some secretly keep you stuck in stress

Then we'll feel it. This isn't a lecture. You'll experience each concept in your body, bridging real science with real sensation.

This workshop is for you if: You're a yoga student who wants to understand your practice at a deeper level — or a yoga teacher ready to bring more intentionality and clinical grounding to how you sequence, cue, and hold space. No prerequisites. All bodies, all levels, all welcome.
