Who Am I?

I am Tiziana Longo, an embodiment artist and trauma-informed movement practitioner based in Berlin.

With over 25 years of experience, I have dedicated my life to exploring how movement, presence, and awareness can guide us back to a sense of wholeness.

My journey began through pain, after surviving a severe car accident at the age of twenty—an experience that profoundly transformed my relationship with my body and with life.

Through personal losses and emotional challenges, I learned that healing is not a linear path, but a process of rediscovering our true selves beneath the scars.

Guided by Butoh and somatic practices, I developed Move to Heal—a space where body, mind, and spirit can meet in safety. Here, we learn to navigate tension, reconnect with ourselves, and embrace a path toward resilience, freedom, and transformation.

My Short CV

​​

Dance Pedagogue | Trauma-Informed Movement Facilitator | TRE® Provider | Certified Yoga Teacher

Tiziana Longo is a certified ICF coach, a dance pedagogue,  and trauma-informed movement facilitator with over 25 years of international experience in the fields of bodywork, performance, and embodied healing. Her work is rooted in a deep understanding of the body as a site of memory, transformation, and empowerment.

Tiziana’s approach is integrative and multidisciplinary, combining her background in contemporary dance and somatics with therapeutic yoga, Butoh, and nervous system regulation. She is a certified TRE® (Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises) provider and Hatha Yoga teacher, with a specialization in trauma-informed and restorative practices. Her teaching emphasizes embodied awareness, emotional safety, consent, and presence—creating spaces in which people can gently return to their bodies, release tension, and access inner resources for resilience.

A central influence in Tiziana’s work is Butoh, the Japanese avant-garde dance form that explores the body’s expressive and subconscious dimensions. She studied and practiced Butoh intensively for five years in Japan, engaging with both traditional and experimental lineages. For her, Butoh is not only a performative art form but also a powerful tool for somatic inquiry, inner exploration, and healing.

In parallel to her Western somatic and artistic education, Tiziana has conducted extensive fieldwork and experiential research in India, Nepal, Bali, and Japan. Her studies in these regions include Eastern philosophies, Vipassana meditation, Tibetan Buddhism, and subtle body practices. These influences deeply inform her holistic understanding of embodiment—not only as a physical process but as an energetic, emotional, and spiritual one as well.

Tiziana’s courses offer participants a unique blend of structure and freedom, sensitivity and depth. Her work is informed by decades of teaching and holding space for diverse individuals—artists, trauma survivors, seekers, and anyone longing to reconnect with the intelligence of the body.

At Somatische Akademie Berlin, TanzFabrik and privately, she leads a number of core offerings including:

• Embodied Release – a movement-based process for regulating the nervous system and supporting emotional release

• Dancing Tigers (TRE®) – group sessions focused on shaking, grounding, and restoring balance

• Unlock: The Pelvic Power Within – a body-based approach to releasing trauma stored in the pelvis and reconnecting with core vitality

• Neuro-Move – movement exploration for re-patterning the body and awakening neuroplastic resilience

• Somatic Butoh – a poetic and introspective practice drawing from Butoh, somatics, and ritual movement

Through these practices, I invite people into a space of honest embodiment—where movement becomes a language for listening, healing, and transformation.
