Group Agreement

This space is designed to be safe, grounding, and supportive. These shared agreements help us co-create a respectful, intentional container for our time together. You are welcome to suggest edits or additions — we build this space together.

 Mutual Respect

• We agree to honour each person’s unique experience and pace.

• No fixing, rescuing, or advising unless invited.

• We speak from our own internal experience using “I” language.

🔒 Confidentiality

• What is shared in the group stays in the group.

• We avoid sharing identifying details of others outside this space.

• You are always welcome to pass, stay silent, or not engage.

🌱 Personal Boundaries

• Participation is encouraged, but never forced.

• You are invited to listen to your body’s cues and step back if needed.

• Cameras can be on or off — choose what supports you best.

🤝 Group Culture

• We show up with curiosity, not judgment.

• We aim for presence, not performance.

• We understand that discomfort may arise and commit to kindness — toward self and others.

🧠 Emotional Safety

• This space is trauma-informed, not therapy in itself.

• If deeper support is needed, individual therapy sessions are available.

• Grounding practices will be used regularly to support regulation.

Fees

Membership of the SomaSoul Project costs £30 a month and is due either as a payment of £90 when you sign up for the three month term, or £30 when you sign up followed by two remaining payments at the beginning of the second and third months. Please set these up as standing orders as I will not be sending out reminder invoices.

I am not able to continue offering the membership where instalments are not paid.

If you change your mind about joining, I am happy to refund any payment you have made if it is within three weeks of the payment date. This applies to fees paid on initial sign up and to instalments.

Confidentiality

None of your information will be shared or distributed, with the following exceptions:

• If in my judgement, you are at risk of serious harm

• If you report information indicating that a vulnerable person is at risk of serious harm,

or relating to a serious crime, in line with my legal obligations

In some cases I may participate in reflective practice groups & supervision sessions. In these instances any references to me or to the group will be anonymised.

Depending on the nature of the risk the following may be contacted: your emergency contact, local authority safeguarding services, your GP or primary mental health provider or the police.

Your Data

Any personal data that you send me will be kept in line with my privacy policy which you can read here.

Ethical Practice

I am certified by The Trauma Centre at JRI to facilitate Trauma Sensitive Yoga as an adjunctive intervention for Complex &/or Developmental Trauma, and work to the IA-TCTSY Guidelines on Ethical Practice (available on request).

Trauma Centre Trauma Sensitive Yoga is not a substitute for a medical care or diagnosis with a physician, psychiatrist, psychologist or other licensed health care provider.

Consent Statement

• Just like any form of physical activity, yoga carries a risk of injury and you agree to take precautions and responsibility for my own actions.

• You have, to the best of your ability, disclosed any necessary information about prior injuries, pre-existing medical conditions and personal history that may be relevant to your safety and the safety of others. You agree not to participate in parts of the programme that your doctor has advised against.

• You understand that the facilitator has the right to deny or terminate service to any person who may represent a threat to the safety of themselves and/or others.
