I found Liz a few years ago, and her work changed my life. After just a week of doing her course, all of my chronic symptoms calmed down. I experienced emotional releases that I never even knew were possible. It set me on a huge path for more trauma healing, and it's something I recommend to many other people. I am always revisiting the courses to this day to help with more healing and release- trauma takes a lot of time and energy to heal, and a well-rounded approach.

The 3 course bundle released my chronic pain!
The 3 course bundle released chronic back/neck and psoas pain and grounded me in ways I couldn't achieve through yoga, meditation or even massage therapy. I cannot say enough good things about these courses and the somatic exercises within them! My mind is clearer, nervous system balanced, and I no longer have chronic pain in my body.
I recommend these courses to all my own clients as a trauma support specialist to support their nervous system, as well as to friends and family!

I had no expectations! What a surprise!
My husband is actually the one who learned of this course and suggested that I try it. I literally knew nothing about it but agreed I would give it a try. I love that the course comes through immediately so I could start right away. I also like how there is no special prep. I just pulled out a yoga mat I had already and started. Honestly, I was just going through the motions with no expectations. The “exercises” are really just gentle movements that feel soothing. What happened though, really took me by surprise. While doing the program each day, I would often have a past memory come up. Nothing huge but something like a neighbor saying something mean to me when I was a kid. Sometimes I felt a little teary, but what is odd is the stuff that was coming up, I had not thought of in many many years. But then, the big one broke loose and this is where I sing my praises for the program. Very very unexpectedly, I was doing the day’s program and I had a deluge of emotions come up about an issue I knew I was dealing with but I had no idea the depth of which I was feeling this. I am an artist who paints abstract seascapes. All this emotion coming up had to be expressed and next thing I knew I was painting out my feelings on the canvas in a way I never had done before. My work has pivoted to being even more abstract with a stronger emotional component to it. The big issue that came up was much lighter after this experience. I no longer felt restrained by emotional shackles. I felt free to express myself more fully and honestly. And, it made me love painting even more. I completed the program and had other smaller issues come up. I sort of describe it to others like an air bubble of a memory comes up and it floats away. These memories come up from nowhere. There is an expression I heard years ago: the issues are in the tissues. I feel this program is releasing the issues and freeing me. Now, I use either individual movements/exercise or return to portions of the program if I ever feel I need to help relieve or release an issue. I highly recommend this program!

A scam
A scam. She should be ashamed of herself for taking advantage. I wrote several times that I was having problems with the course .Customer Service didn't respond so I asked for a refund and got a response that I have to have the whole course completed in 90 days and at that point I wouldn't be able to complete it with the restart (you can't skip more than 3 days or you have to restart) the videos are not accurate in description ( she say move only a inch or whatever and she moves 6 inches) I'm not sure how your supposed to watch the tutorial from the position you are in while doing it. I don't have the money to pay for something that isn't going to help me so I was hesitant to purchase but she advertised the money back guarantee. So now I really just feel worse, taken advantage of and hungry because that was my grocery money. Way to prey on the hopes of healing in already vulnerable people. Please don't be fooled like I was.

Extremely Disappointing & Deceptive
Extremely Disappointing & Deceptive – Do Not Trust!
I highly regret getting involved with this so-called “somatic exercise” program and teacher training. The marketing is misleading and manipulative, claiming that her programs are life-changing when in reality, it’s a complete scam. She has no real qualifications or expertise—just a basic trainer background—and is using the tragic California wildfires to sell her unsubstantiated methods.
Her teacher training was a joke—just videos and regurgitated content from other people’s work. There was no real support or guidance, and when members asked for help, she gaslit the group, blaming frustrations on personal responsibility rather than offering any meaningful assistance. It's clear she’s not interested in actual education or support, just in profiting off vulnerable people.
This person has no accreditation, a terrible BBB rating, and poor reviews on both Reddit and Trustpilot, yet she continues to present herself as an expert. She silences any negative comments on her posts and only pushes forward her deceptive marketing. It’s slimy and unethical, especially for those already dealing with trauma, to take advantage of their pain with promises that her program will “save” them.
Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for genuine support. Avoid this at all costs.

Unscrupulous in my opinion
This company, in my opinion, is preying on people who are struggling with trauma, cptsd, chronic fatigue and illness and the grasping at something to help them. I've been in the self-help realm for over 30 years. I've tried many, many different things and I can tell you that as soon as I started the program based on the quality of the sound of the website they were using and just the way that the instructions were given set off every alarm Bell in my head. However, I set aside what I thought and I immersed myself in the program and finished the 30 days and saw nothing felt nothing and the sad part was that I had stopped doing other things that had been working and I was going through a particularly difficult time. So I contacted the company and was told that because I didn't complete the entire program, I was not eligible for a refund. I know I completed the entire program but because they have such a shoddy server somehow it didn't register. It might have been human error because sometimes I did it on my computer and other times I did it on my phone. So I completed the program again. But this time I didn't ask for a refund directly from the company. I went to the better Business bureau and I filed a complaint against the workout witch. I feel that this is a case of snake oil sales, there's a lot of hype and buzz around somatic things. In this particular case, I should have known based on the fact that she didn't offer any free full length challenges, or just a free program so that the people could get an idea of what the program would be like. Most reputable YouTubers and tick tokers who offer these kinds of little tidbit videos will also offer full length videos so somebody can try a program and see if it fits them. She did not and does not participate in anything like that. That's a huge red flag. I have no problem with people making money but I have a problem with people telling you that you will get something out of their program and if you don't that it's somehow your fault that it didn't work. Or using ambiguous language in return policies, counting on human error or shoddy servers to enforce an unrealistic return qualification threshold. Those are the most unscrupulous types of people in my opinion. I feel that the workout witch company is predatory in the way that they're preying on the most vulnerable people. In my opinion, of course. I have purchased programs from creators and they worked out, and there are times where I purchased a program from a Creator and it was just way above my ability levels and I contacted them and they immediately took back the digital content and refunded my money without any problem or hesitation. So what I experienced felt like disingenuous communications knowing full well that they aren't going to give anybody a refund. All in all I believe and this is my belief. Having experienced good and bad things with companies, I would say that there are plenty of free somatic movement, creators and content that is free on YouTube. I highly suggest you familiarize yourself with what somatic movement is supposed to do and how it actually operates within the body. I'm probably not going to get a refund or even a reach out, I feel they'll just point at "the refund policy" and keep moving the goal post so you'll never actually get a refund. I would love to see a review where somebody didn't enjoy the program and was promptly given a refund. Anybody?

**They keep trying to take my review…
**They keep trying to take my review down. I will not stop warning people** I have done the hip release several times over a few years and have not noticed a difference. I see all her positive reviews and how beautiful her life is now and say to myself that I am going to try it again. I have been considering purchasing more of her courses thinking that I need more "support". After reading through many comments from people whose reviews have been deleted and seeing the receipts of interactions I am repulsed by her. I found free TRE Training and I am looking forward to starting it. Being a HOT Boss Babe, means being Honest, Open, Transparent. Deleting "negative" reviews, victim shaming, and hiding correspondence that does not fit into your higher-than-god persona is the exact opposite of being a HOT Bass Babe. Liz Tenuto has now started a teacher training course. Teaching her toxic ways of hiding, shaming, and blaming.
