About the event
James Humecky, a Somatic Educator who, through four foundations for self-mastery (movement, breath, touch, and mindfulness), facilitates your awareness and interpretation of your body language and instructs how to reprogram your old psychosomatic patterns.
He is a dynamic, hands-on therapeutic bodyworker, teacher and former Marine who has created a unique approach to the cultivation of powerful, body-centered self-awareness.
Who should attend this session? Because this work is centered in mindfulness and Somatic practices, it is suitable for anyone who is interested in understanding themselves better, who is seeking to live a more purposeful and connected lifestyle. This class is one practical aspect of creating a more dynamic and resilient outlook for yourself as a foundation for understanding how to create a more healthy relationship to touch and to yourself and the world.
For those who are desiring to deepen their study of massage in general, and Thai Massage specifically, this is a great place to start. Invitation to Savasana gives you all the basics to create a beautiful session for professional clients, or at home with friends and loved ones. During this workshop you will learn to use gravity, body weight and leverage as well as compression, acupressure techniques, rocking and gentle lifting, in a therapeutic and graceful manner to move your partner into a state of complete release.
This is a Somatic experience, based on the four foundations for embodied self-mastery; breath, movement, mindfulness and touch. We will be using simple Thai Massage techniques to learn to connect with ourselves and others in an organic and healthy, healing dynamic. You also receive a downloadable manual with over 80, full-color images, and space to make personal notes.
By going to my website, www.somatic-pleasure.com, you can register for the free “Introduction to Somatic Thai” course and have access to a video of the full, Invitation to Savasana flow and two supplementary videos demonstrating basic techniques for the back and shoulders; all with clear verbal instruction.
