At TSS, we hold space for complexity, ambiguity, and paradox.

‍

Inevitably, many of us will take a side. But in the spaces we hold, we make room for all sides to be present. Existing alongside rather than requiring anyone to pick a side.

‍

We don’t deny politics, and we’re not apolitical. We welcome a diversity of opinions, in fact ecosystems thrive on diversity. Each person is entitled to an opinion of their own, and it is possible to have an opinion whilst remaining non-judgmental. 

‍

People tend to feel safe in spaces in which they are not worried about whether they are being judged as right or wrong. 

‍

Geopolitics is never black and white. Most people don’t fit neatly into political identities. And often, a strong opinion, a rant or declaration is someone sharing their truth, not the truth.

‍

We are committed to not being polarised. We are committed to “yes and…”. Both/and.

‍

There is a way to acknowledge what’s happening in the world without creating division. 

‍

You won't hear us say, “we don’t talk about that here” — anything that 'shall not be named' implies it is in some way shameful. Instead, we say, “this is what we perceive is happening.” Phenomenologically. And leave it at that.

‍

Having opinions is human! We have preferences, likes and dislikes. When we say, "This is my opinion," it becomes just that, an opinion - and we allow others the freedom to have opinions of their own. 

‍

We stand for unity, love and process.

‍

We consciously decouple our core values from current affairs. We don’t leverage world events to validate our stance — even if those beliefs align with love, unity, and process.

‍

We do our best to hold the whole.

‍

Body-Oriented Coaches are intentional about creating safe, supportive environments that allow clients to explore their own values and beliefs without judgment.​ This is as true in the coaching room as it is in our business.

‍

We have guidelines for etiquette and conduct to ensure the integrity and inclusion of our container. If you choose to opt into those and abide by them as a consenting, caring adult: all of you is welcome here.
