Description

I'm leading a series of massage workshops for anyone (single or part of a couple) who would like to explore both the healing and pleasurable qualities of touch on one another. If you come to this workshop, you will have an opportunity to improve your massage skills and explore the "Art of Touch". However, you just might have a really fun time doing it. This will be a small intimate workshop held at my home. Although this workshop is open to anyone who has an interest in giving and receiving a good quality massage, space is limited to 12 people maximum. Last time I held this type of workshop it sold out completely. Please register to reserve your spot. It's only $30 per person…. and TOUCH is simply a wonderful thing to explore! This workshop is the second of the series, however it is still an excellent place to begin. The focus of this particular event is on massage and stretching techniques for the lower body. My intention is to teach you how to give the ideal foot, leg and hip massage. Our feet and legs are our foundation. They support us as we move through life. It is so important to take good care of them! Our hips are an essential part of our core and should not be ignored. The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the human body. The gluteal muscles have the job of keeping us upright and pushing our bodies forward. The piriformis is a small, yet very important muscle located deep in the buttock, behind the gluteus maximus. It helps the hip rotate, turning the leg and foot outward. The sciatic nerve runs under and though this muscle. Learning how to massage these areas of the body well can really add to the health benefits and pain reducing effects of your massage. Plus, it's hard to find a person who doesn't love a good butt massage. It just feels great! Each of the massage workshops will have a different area of focus: 1. Overall Body Relaxation, 2. Feet, Legs and Hips. 3. Shoulders, Upper back, and Mid back. 4. Lower back, Belly and Buttocks. 5. Neck, Head and Face, 6. Hands, Arms and Chest. You are welcome to register for any of these workshops independently, or you are welcome to continue to come back each month to explore the entire series for a more comprehensive full body "Art of Touch" massage experience. There will be demonstrations and warm up activities. Midway through we will break for some snacks. Most of the time will be spent practicing on one another with some guidance and support. You do not need to be a professional or even have a desire to become a professional massage therapist to attend. This is for beginners and amateurs, as well as for more experienced touch artists and therapists who just want to delve deeper into the wonderful world of touch. You may bring a partner or come solo. Wear comfortable clothes and perhaps something underneath that you are comfortable stripping down to as you receive massage. This workshop provides an opportunity to improve the quality of your touch while practicing giving and receiving on one another. The intention is to provide a safe and welcoming atmosphere. All boundaries will be respectfully maintained. I will demonstrate a range of different types of touch and some specific massage techniques for you to try. We will divide up into pairs or groups of 3 to practice on one another. Midway through we will break for food and to socialize for a bit. Feel free to bring something healthy and nutritious to contribute if you’d like. Then we will regroup to practice some more. The Art of Touch requires more than knowing a cookie cutter massage routine. It requires good communication, adaptability and sensitivity. Everyone is different so we need to practice listening and tuning into the individual or individuals we are touching. Want to know more about your facilitator?
