RADICAL RETURN — a 6-week Somatic Yoga Journey.

Radical Return: A 6-Week Somatic Yoga Journey

Move less from expectation & more from sensation.

There is a wisdom in your body that existed long before you learned to override it.

Before the pushing, the performing, the rushing, bracing, holding and trying to get it “right.”

Radical Return is an invitation back.

Back into sensation, breath, instinct and into the wild, intelligent language of your body.

Over six weeks, we’ll explore somatic movement, intuitive yoga, breathwork, nervous system awareness, fascial mobility, meditation, deep rest and reflection.

Some weeks we’ll move slowly and other weeks we’ll shake, sprawl, spiral and express.

We’ll explore where we grip and where we soften. What happens when we follow an impulse rather than a shape. When we need movement and when we need stillness.

This isn’t about performing yoga poses or fixing your body.

It’s about meeting, listening and building a relationship with your body from the inside out.

And perhaps the most radical thing we can do is learn how to come home to it.

THE JOURNEY

WEEK 1 — ARRIVEGround + Feel

We begin by slowing down enough to notice.

Through grounding, breath, gentle somatic exploration and nervous system awareness, we’ll begin developing the language of sensation.

What do I notice? Where do I feel it? What happens when I don’t immediately need to change it?

A foundation of presence, curiosity and connection.

WEEK 2 — AWAKENMobilize + Explore

We begin following the body’s natural impulses through spirals, waves, rocking, rolling, fascial movement and intuitive exploration.

Instead of being told exactly how to move, we’ll become curious about how the body wants to move.

Less choreography. More conversation.

WEEK 3 — IGNITEShake + Express

This is where we turn up the volume.

Shake. Sprawl. Spiral. Breathe. Sound. Move.

We’ll explore movement as a pathway for expression, release and aliveness — giving ourselves permission to move beyond what is polished, contained or expected.

Not performance.

Permission.

WEEK 4 — REGULATEListen + Respond

What is your nervous system communicating — and can you learn to hear it?

We’ll explore activation and settling, effort and ease, boundaries and choice through movement, breath and nervous system education.

Instead of asking, How do I make myself calm? we begin asking:

What does my system need right now?

WEEK 5 — SOFTENRest + Receive

A quieter journey into restorative movement, breath, stillness, support and deep rest.

What happens when there is nowhere to get to?

Can you soften effort?Can you receive support?Can you allow yourself to do less?

An invitation to discover that rest, too, is a practice.

WEEK 6 — RETURNIntegrate + Remember

We bring the journey home.

Movement and stillness.Expression and rest.Activation and settling.Instinct and awareness.

We’ll explore how to carry what we’ve discovered beyond the mat and into our relationships, choices and everyday lives.

Because Radical Return isn’t ultimately about learning the “right” way to move.

It’s about remembering how to hear yourself.

ARRIVE → AWAKEN → IGNITE → REGULATE → SOFTEN → RETURN

THROUGHOUT THE SIX WEEKS

We’ll weave together:

Somatic movement & intuitive exploration • Nervous system education • Breathwork • Fascial mobility & grounding • Meditation • Restorative practices & deep relaxation • Reflection & integration

These elements are consistent with the earlier Radical Return material we developed, including the more expressive “shake, sprawl, spiral, express” component.
