ABOUT:
Valentine’s day is for us another excuse to practice what we love: giving & receiving touch and presence through the meditative dance of Thai massage.
In this workshop we will treat the whole body, working up from the feet and legs towards the organs, chest, arms and head. Using a variety of our favorite playful techniques, we'll give extra attention to mobilizing the spine and opening the heart space, to allow vitality to flow through our whole being. With attention and loving kindness, we will work the diaphragm, chest and belly to release physical as well as emotional tension for both the receiver and giver simultaneously in a win-win treatment.
WHEN: Saturday February 15th 11am - 2.30pm
Potluck hang afterwards : In celebration of Valentine’s day, we invite you to bring extra sweetness to this playshop by sharing a healthy dessert or treat to satisfy all of your senses.
LOCATION: Mar Vista residence, address provided to registered participants
THE TEACHERS: Sonia and Sarah have been teaching together since 2010. They love few things more than co-teaching Thai massage! Sonia: https://www.facebook.com/YogaSquirrels/

4:30-5:30 Community Care
ABOUT:
Self-Care: Climbing Warmup
Warm up your body and mind for the fun of climbing. Stretches and exercises to open the shoulders and hips and turn on the muscles that support grip, balance, and core engagement for easeful ascent. Breath and mindfulness to support a regulated nervous system for calm climbs.
Community-Care: Trust, Connection, and Play
Meet some new friends and connect through fun group and partner stretching and exercises, to warm up your body and build trust in your community. A brief Thai massage exchange will seal the deal as we down-regulate together for a feel-good night of climbing.

Get High on Thai: Spring Massage Workshop
April 20th, 2025
11am-2:30pm
Paul Carlson Memorial Park, Culver City, CA (or private Mar Vista residence if weather dictates)
PRICE: By donation, pay what feels right to you. (Our workshops are usually $100-$160, but we don't turn anyone away for lack of funds)

ABOUT:
Get High on Thai!
Thai massage works with the energy body to restore vitality so that we feel good in body, mind, and spirit.
In our society we often become disconnected to our innate vital rhythms. This workshop will move stagnant energy in our bodies to welcome the energy of Spring, represented by the Wood element in Chinese Medicine, exemplifying the energy of growth, change, and manifestation.
Join us for your Spring Cleaning as we massage the meridians for liver and gall bladder. Improve your clarity of vision, and your physical and emotional flexibility.
Our sequences will mainly be in supine (lying on your back) and sidelying positions, addressing many common “problem areas” in the shoulders, outer hips, and legs. This workshop will address the full body and leave you feeling grounded and springy.
*This day also offers invaluable tools for yoga teachers, massage therapists, and energy workers who wish to develop a new dimension of healing touch for students or clients.
Bring a friend or make some there!
WHEN: Saturday April 20th 11am - 2:30pm
WHERE: under the tall trees at Paul Carlson Memorial Park OR private residence in Mar Vista (if weather dictates)
THE TEACHERS: Sonia and Sarah have been teaching together since 2010. They love few things more than co-teaching Thai massage! Sonia: https://www.facebook.com/YogaSquirrels/
