Couples Massage Classes & Immersions

Love, Connect, and Grow Through Touch

Couples Massage Workshop

For something uniquely different as a romantic couple's experience ~ and in the realm of couples massage, explore the option of learning to massage each other. Take home the tools for offering each other a nurturing massage, more than just as a vacation experience.

A couples massage class or my Sacred Touch Retreat Immersion offers you one to three bespoke sessions of massage instruction. Each class is 2 1/2 hours, with simultaneous full body massage instruction - this means one of you will be on the table, receiving massage, while the other is participating in the demonstration.

And then we switch.

This is a see, touch, hear, and feel = give and receive experience.

In your first session, you will learn the basics of massage. Together, you will playfully discover the anatomy of your loved one in a new and special way. You will learn effective techniques for various parts of the body, which will allow you to become comfortable in knowing where and where not to massage the body, for example, the bones. I will share with you a way in which to recognize the reactions of your loved one while you are massaging them, as well as a kind way to communicate your desired level of pressure while receiving massage from your loved one.

The second class is about becoming even more comfortable with massage and learning how to be in the flow. You will be surprised at what you learned and forgot from the first class. Together, we continue to explore feeling more comfortable providing a nurturing massage. With practice and experience, you will enjoy the feeling of giving your loved one a great massage. They will surely enjoy being on the receiving end!

My third class in the retreat immersion is about setting the scene - all the steamy accoutrements…lights, candles, music, flow… for a sensual massage. There is more to it than meets the eye.

You have the option to participate in only one or two classes ~ whichever suits your schedule and availability. If you're on vacation ~ terrific…let's at least begin your adventure with one class. Who knows, you may join me in Europe for the next two…oxo

In the Words of Michael
On Behalf of Michael & Sarah

Michael & Sarah - Couples Massage Class
"

The best thing I would share…and have shared with friends…I was expecting to learn a little bit of massage technique (physical). Walked away wowed by how, in that short amount of time, it became the most intimate education in effective communication and responsiveness to one another.

Twenty-five years of marriage and many therapists over the years at challenging times in our lives, and I swear we never, ever came out of any of those appointments feeling so closely and intimately connected in every way. I can hardly verbalize how effective just a few moments became for each of us in clarifying things we struggled to say to each other for decades, that became clear in a single moment of lying on that table. It was mystifying, and I was blown away.

As we walked to the car, Sarah was remarking that she had recently been contemplating what activity the two of us might do together to regain some intimacy in our marriage, and couldn't believe what just happened on that table in bringing us closer together than we had felt in years. It was truly amazing the connection that was reestablished in those few hours.

As we had lunch together, I contemplated that part of the experience may very well have been the humility that swept over me. The moment I started running my fingers through her hair, I immediately felt a little humbled at how I didn't have as natural a touch as I remembered I likely once had. And, while at lunch, I felt a comfort that I could share that with Sarah and express the need to hear her feedback in a way that was specific, as you had instructed, but not coming across in a way that would humiliate when someone is already feeling vulnerable. These awarenesses were happening in moments and with such few words. It was awesome!

Sorry, I just went on forever. But we did truly have a wonderful experience together with you, and I thank you!

Balance and Mobility Bodywork

Motion Is Lotion!

Balance and Mobility Workshop

The benefit of this class is learning how to use and heal your body fully and to its greatest potential through simple movement; movements you've done all your life, but now need to be re-learned, consciously.

Walking consciously and using full-body movements will improve your gait and overall body structure. We will also learn how to work out the trouble spots, such as bothersome shoulders and hips, with a number of easy range of motion actions.

For persons experiencing Parkinson's Disease, these workshops and this form of bodywork are a blessing. I have a two-year certification in the WholeBody Movement modality of massage/bodywork. You are able to lie on my massage table with your clothes on while I gently move your body in way that is designed to interrupt the neurological system in order to get your body to relax and release. These gentle, invitational movements facilitate profound relaxation while releasing deep-seated, restrictive body-mind patterns.

Alchemy of Astrology

On the day that you were born…

Astrology

The science of astrology reveals Thy Self. Having your chart read offers you the opportunity to know yourself better, more clearly, and with deeper compassion. As you hear about the placements in your astrological chart, I bet you will be met with fascination and awe.

As well, when you discover some of your loved or less desirable ( not a bad thing ) characteristics are right there in front of you, self-acceptance will win the day. Discovering the chart of your loved ones will definitely have you understanding them more and granting them grace for who they truly are as a human.
