Join your community for a weekend intensive:
Retreat to the gulf islands to spend time in an intensive practical bodywork program. We begin each day with yoga and qi gong to get our energy flowing, then follow with give and receive massage, both led and un-led practice. We will be working in partners but also individually throughout the weekend, with emphasis on technique and correct alignment. Each day includes demonstration, guided flows, and independent practice time. You will finish with the skills to put together a sequence that you can practice with a friend, partner, lover or perfect stranger!
Therapeutic consensual bodywork is a great way to enjoy more connection to others, and to improve your skills in giving and receiving. Consensual contact is primary to the practice, and each participant can choose to work with anyone as they so choose. However, you must be willing to equally give and receive in order to participate in this course.
Some yoga or bodywork experience is an asset; but beginners are welcome. The practice does require that you can move around on the floor, balance in a half-kneeling position, sit crossed legged or on your knees. Please bring a large bed-size mattress or double foamie to work on (let me know if you need these as there are a few to share). Workbook is provided, textbook is recommended (see this link to purchase).
Each weekend provides 15 hours towards Level I and II certification (30 hours or two weekends per level). Certificate awarded upon completion of a qualifying exam.
