The Experience
Biosomatic Craniosacral Therapy Level 1 with Kari Toft
In this training, you will learn how to assess and work with the cranial rhythm and the mid-tide as well as, how to tune into and work with, the subtle unwinding of the body as it looks to reorient itself with it’s innate reordering blueprint.
We only accept a limited number of students per training to ensure an intimate community vibe.

The Modality
Craniosacral-based treatment is now one of the most successful and fastest-growing approaches to mind-body healing.
It’s both a medical system with precise anatomical criteria and a therapeutic art requiring the practitioner to feel, interpret and move energy. Craniosacral Therapy is a form of manual therapy that goes so much deeper than the physical body.
This is soul work.
We are holistic beings and as we become proficient in the language of the body, we see that the program for healing is already inherent within. In this foundations training, you will learn 16 anatomically-precise techniques to address a wide variety of pain and dysfunction. Physical, emotional and energetic boundaries are of the utmost importance with this work and will be discussed at length as well as how emotional trauma affects the physical body.
The Coursework
Combining a unique blend of biomechanical and biodynamic Craniosacral, known as Biosomatic Craniosacral Therapy,
we will learn to work with the cranial rhythm, pelvic and respiratory diaphragms, thoracic inlet and hyoid bone while attuning and deeply listening to the body’s wisdom.
Learn to work with both osseous and membraneous restrictions while identifying and releasing restrictions at the sacrum, in the dural tube and within the bones of the skull.
An in-depth introduction to Anatomy will also be covered including:
Frontal Bone, Temporals, Sphenoid, Parietals, Occiput, TMJ and more.
By the end of Level 1, students will have the skills and techniques to complete a 10-step protocol.
Students will receive a booklet and a certificate upon completion.
The natural healing force in each one of us is the greatest force in getting well.
— Hippocrates
The Program
Mornings begin with intention, moving through a somatic movement practice as well as time spent connecting with others.
We then move into the Craniosacral Therapy Coursework with a 90min midday break.
During your free time, we highly encourage rest and relaxation.
This is a wonderful time to journal, meditate, connect with fellow students and friends, ground in the surrounding abundance of nature or simply be.
There will be options for the group to continue on their journey together outside of the training.
We may gather together around a beach fire, enjoy a stunning sunset hike, or flow through an embodiment practice.
This training runs from 8:30am to 5:30pm each day.
