Aki Omori

I am an experienced somatic movement therapist/educator, a certified Body-Mind Centering® teacher and practitioner and a certified NARM (Neuro-Affective Relational Model) therapist. And I am a yoga teacher with almost 20 years teaching experience. Currently a faculty member of several yoga teachers trainings, including an advanced teachers training at Triyoga UK, teaching anatomy, somatic movement based on the embryology & developmental movements. I run an annual 50 hour residential professional training called “Nourishment & Depletion”, designed for psychotherapists, yoga teachers, holistic therapists. It is a week long enquiry into wellness of a whole person, through embodied anatomy of the nervous system, other body systems, embryology & developmental movements, including teaching the intricate use of touch, body & tissue reading and work on traumas. Also, together with Jane Okondo, we are setting up a professional educational body called Soma Trauma Education, teaching application of somatic movement and touch for healing of the trauma. The first foundation course begins in early 2021. Some feedback and testimony from my teaching… “we were riding on such a high after your teaching… Personally each of your lessons is not short of life changing and I feel eternally grateful for having had the chance to experience your visceral journey through anatomy.” - Teacher Trainee “Aki, you are a wealth of knowledge and inspiration and I am so grateful for your wisdom. I also love your playful side too!” - Occupational therapist and yogi One student described her “She is poetic, yet grounded. She is experiential yet confident in the benefits of exploring different ‘ways in’ to yoga. She is fluid and inspiring…” Another said “You are like a fairy, a magic - I feel your energy so deeply in myself when you are teaching…” A senior yoga teacher described her teaching “Aki’s in-depth knowledge and generous spirit make her teaching a unique experience. Little gems of insight and understanding continuously arise during her sessions, which profoundly shifts awareness and perception so there comes about a real felt knowing in the body and new confidence in moving.”
