Brittany Capozzi

Brittany is a writer, belly dancer, and yoga therapist (C-IAYT) from the Boston area. She graduated from Curry College with a degree in English. While there, she presented an undergrad thesis on Therapeutic Writing. As a yoga therapist, Brittany utilizes breath management, functional movement, and guided-rest to support those who are dealing with chronic pain and the effects of trauma. She has been teaching people tools to reintroduce their mind to their bodies through yoga for over ten years. She uses trauma-responsive language to help practitioners and clients rebuild resiliency in the nervous system. Her belief is that we deserve to be able to express who we are without trauma leading our lives, we have ways to foster C.H.O.I.C.E.S. (Control, Honest movement, Opportunities, Internal sensations, Creativity, External sensations, and Self-compassion). When appropriate, she uses her Trust Fall Writing™ method and belly dance teaching tools—such as the coin scarf —to teach individuals about sensory awareness. As one listens to her meditation C.H.O.I.C.E.S. series, one will hear how she utilizes storytelling to show how qualities in nature can cultivate our own awareness and healing. Her educational toolbox only keeps evolving: She is a certified Rest and Revitalization Sleep Meditation teacher, taught by iRest’s co-founder Anne Douglas; a certified Laughter Yoga Leader, taught by Master Trainers Bill and Linda Hamaker; and a Warriors at Ease Level 1 Certified Teacher.
