Course content

This weekend is an opportunity to refine your practice, revisiting techniques while also refining precision and confidence. There will be short guided sequences which included techniques from the beginner Thai massage trainings (level 1 and 2), sequenced in a new way, while giving opportunity to review and refine. With this base, we can focus on attunement to the state of the receiver, slowing down enough to connect to the state of their nervous system, and moving from a place of responsive listening through active touch.

Alongside this, the inner work we do will be reflected by gathering together as a community of practitioners on the same path — to share, to give and receive feedback, and to be witnessed. Along with practicing how to attune to our client, we’ll work on attuning with our own selves — to reveal more layers of who we are as practitioners, and what our unique offering and unique gifts are to share with the world through our practice.

Day One opens with a refiner’s practice: revisiting previous material through shorter, guided sequences focused on dropping the nervous system, stillness, and listening. We give and receive with real-time feedback — not “was this correct,” but did this need more strength, more time, more stillness, or none of it at all. This is where we sharpen attunement rather than just technique — the skill of sensing what a body actually needs, rather than what a sequence says comes next.

Day Two builds on this foundation. Having slowed down and begun to listen — to ourselves and to each other — we practice presence and listening, and weaving together applying techniques with our own unique approach, style and felt sense.

This workshop is for you if:

• You have previous experience in bodywork or massage — whether practicing professionally or for your own skill set
• You are looking for depth and meaning in your practice, not just more content
• You are interested in nervous system regulation and prefer to work in a way that respects listening to the state of your receiving
• You value holding space in a way that requires slowing down enough to listen and respond to the present state of your receiver
• You consider bodywork and touch as a spiritual practice, and as a tool of healing rather than fixing
• You sense there is a “you” in your work that hasn’t fully found its voice, and you’re looking for confidence in your own unique style and way of offering bodywork
