Massage
My massages aim to sort out your sore stuff while offering a restorative experience. Alongside my study of the moving body, I have worked as a massage therapist for seven years. I am experienced in deep tissue, remedial and Thai techniques. I welcome the full spectrum of care that body work can provide; physical, mental and spiritual; bringing us into the wholeness of self via the simplicity of touch.Mondays at The Hands-On Retreat.

Movement
With over a decade of experience in the dancing world, I curate regular local groups as well as seasonal events for people to dive into the world of somatics, contact improvisation and the magic of the moving body. I believe that dance can bring us into a deeper understanding of self, one another and the environment we inhabit. My practices are almost always relational, heavily based in the wisdom of touch, tactility, co-creation and fun.Local classes take place in Spring and Autumn terms. I usually run two groups one as a light touch, the other a deep dive.Rolling, Falling. Flying. Listening.
