Songa Somatics

What if your body remembered a way forward?

Countless programs focus on awareness or analysis—but what blossoms when we feel, heal, and act from a place of integration and care?

We at Songa Somatics believe change happens within the felt sense of our bodies—where resilience, relational capacity, and cultural transformation find their roots. Healing occurs not in the head, but in the full body.

What is Somatics?

In ancient African (Khemetic) wisdom, the hieroglyph Sema Tawī—pronounced SMA—represented unity. Visually, it symbolizes the windpipe and lungs bound at center, flanked by the left and right sides of the body. This symbol reflects the integration of opposites, the sacred role of breath, and the wholeness of the living body.

In Songa Somatics, the SMA is more than a logo—it is a remembrance. It evokes the body as sacred ground, breath as bridge, and the centerline as a site of coherence. It honors a lineage that knew the soma long before the Greeks named it so.

Somatics is the embodied practice of reclaiming that wholeness. It invites us to move from the inside out—breathing into what’s been held, listening to what longs to emerge, and aligning our actions with what matters most.

Through somatic practice, we learn to:

Stay grounded in challenging moments
Shift reactive or limiting patterns
Listen, feel, and move with integrity
Embody presence in service of what we care about
