Yoke Wen has journeyed with vulnerable children and families over the past decade as a trauma-informed practitioner, trainer, and writer. She founded SOMAYOKE in 2019 to facilitate safe spaces for trauma healing for children, teens, adults, and communities. As a Yoga teacher, she has witnessed the powerful benefits that Yoga brings for healing, empowerment, and grounding.

As children form their sense of self and understanding of the world around them, she chooses to support them to feel safe, calm, and strong in their body and mind. Through mind-body awareness, children learn foundational skills to cope with the stressors, fears, and challenges that they will encounter throughout their lives.

Connecting with children has always brought tremendous joy to her. Yoke Wen enjoys sharing Yoga with children using their language - fun and play. She believes in lifelong learning to promote children’s right to live their best lives.

SOMAYOKE also offers somatic and body-based tools to cultivate self-compassion and guide trauma healing with adults. Through psychoeducation, training and coaching across communities, SOMAYOKE is an advocate for holistic trauma healing.
