Why SattvaTIE Matters

Trauma is more common than many realise — studies suggest that up to 70% of adults have experienced at least one traumatic event in their lives. When people come to the gym, many seek more than just physical health; they come looking for relief, community, and a chance to feel better mentally and emotionally.We’ve all heard that exercise releases endorphins — the “feel-good” chemicals — and can boost mood. But for many, showing up at the gym can also bring up unresolved pain, stress, or trauma. Some members might come and go quietly, never sharing what they carry inside. They might leave still feeling disconnected or even physically triggered by old injuries or trauma they haven’t worked through.What if your fitness professionals could recognise the subtle signs of trauma? What if they knew how to adapt exercises and coaching approaches to ensure everyone feels included, safe, and genuinely supported?SattvaTIE trains your team to see beyond the surface and meet members where they are — creating a gym environment where mental wellbeing is valued alongside physical progress. This approach reduces the risk of re-traumatisation, improves client retention, and builds a loyal community who feel truly “at home” in your gym.By bridging the gap between fitness and trauma-informed care, SattvaTIE empowers your staff to lead with empathy, expertise, and confidence — transforming your gym into a pioneering space for holistic wellness.
