The seasons are shifting… we can change with the dance.

Spring is a time of creativity, possibilities, renewal and determination. We bring attention the Wood element from a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) lens, gathering a sense of vitality, adaptability and flow within, so we can bring this out into our lives.

Emma (Happy Axe) and Lucy guide you with sound and voice through breathwork, Qi Gong forms and yin shapes, to encourage fluidity, spaciousness and ease. Receive hands-on massage from Lucy and fellow zenthai shiatsu practitioner/s, to enrich your experience through the incomparable connection of touch.

This session falls on the weekend of a solar eclipse - symbolic of a period of transition, and the play between dark and light, in cycles and seasons.

We’re extending the duration of this session to 2.5hrs so there is even more room to soak into the enlivening of awareness in stillness, motion and sound.

The Chinese Medicine-inspired offerings in this session are shared as pathways to centre and settle the individual and collective being. Take what resonates into your life, as supports towards a calmer, more steady and life-giving radiance.

“Anything you can plan is too small for you.”

Remembering these words from while receiving the grace of his offering. To live with this remembrance offers a degree of ease, or sometimes profound liberation, from expectation, from the fear of the unknown, from the parts not yet visible yet starting to be felt.

There is a sense of spaciousness, and increased capacity to meet the new with curiosity. So even hard edges are met with a softer, more watery touch.

What do you behold in this moment, and what space is available for the unfolding of the not-yet-known?

Thank you for the grace you reveal through the lens ❤️ for your magic with ink 🥰

A song of courage and affirmation, that a path away from the main road of Expectation is created only by the walking of each step, one at a time. 🌿

Written in Winter 2024. A year yields much change and whole new landscapes. Thankful for everyone I get to encounter and learn with in this mirage we call Life.

Some snippets from China: moments of in-learning, re-learning, allowing, integrating, marvelling, delighting, dedicating to understanding of what holds true within all cultures and beings despite our different expressions.

I hadn’t played the piano for a loooong time (this piano is a little out of tune..) and this is me sight-reading a piece I haven’t learnt before but have heard many times. This whole month has felt a bit like that - figuring out something new yet familiar, and re-finding my connection to ways of making music within the unknown. Grateful, renewed, feeling cherished and held by the power of family and of grace.

Ready to step onto an always changing path, with clearer eyes and heart. 💛

Winter is a time of downward and inward energy: retreat, introspection, and the wisdom which arises from quietude. We can nourish this process of rebuilding vitality through encouraging warmth and circulation within, whilest attuning to and the spaciousness and support of the back body.

Emma and Lucy will guide you with sound and voice through breathwork, Qi Gong forms and yin shapes, to encourage fluidity, spaciousness and ease. Receive hands-on massage from Lucy and fellow zenthai shiatsu practitioner/s, to enrich your experience through the incomparable connection of touch.

New Sunday session for our next in community!

We are often taught to mark feats of action as more momentous; yet so many of our most poignant moments arise when we let go, trust, and allow ourselves to be held in the wave of what moves through us.

Allow yourself to be moved through an extended 90mins of one-on-one zenthai shiatsu bodywork in a tranquil sanctuary of candlelight, alongside a small group of other receivers; savour a warm tea and rich earthy treat to follow.

To receive Zenthai Shiatsu is to provide your body and being with a chance to clear the dams and debris of everyday life. Not to run away from it, but to allow the innate intelligence within to be awakened through touch, fluidity, and stillness. It’s a little bit of magic.

No experience required, all bodies welcome.

Power is the capacity to be spacious, playful, and potently alive in connection to the world. It can also be a knife, capable of deep wounds.

You want power.
We all do.
But power also comes in many flavours.
And the kind of power which stirs the heart and spirit is different from the kind of power which cages and constricts.

To take power away from oneself, and place it in the hands of another, is fear. It says: I do not want to be accountable for this choice, this action, so instead, let it be seen as fate, as imposed by life upon me.

Each choice we make has an innate relationship to power, and how we hold it with our attitudes, beliefs, and stories. It is an on-going practice to build a conscientious relationship with the power we get to cultivate.

Where are your hands, where is you heart, in this moment? How are you gathering, sharing and relating to the power within, and around you?

An invitation, in each moment and day, to pause, and be curious how you might entice the feeling of self-empowerment into each choice you get to make. To live deliberately. And see what might shift 🫶🏽🌿

A new season of being 🦋

My journey this year will veer away from studio life and towards more time in the wild, literally and figuratively.

It feels like a big bittersweet circling and closure in myriad ways - and a beautiful, mysterious new chapter opening.

Come join me for classes for the rest of March before I go away for a while in April ⛰️ - some events + classes to come in May, too.

More soon 🤍

I’m going to look back one day,
When straddling up feels easy,
And still, remember:

Learning is a process,
she was doing her best,
and every wobble helped realise
a deeper sense of centre,
a stronger connection to gravity,
a truer knowing of home.

Something changes every time we show up for ourselves. Noticing so much more ease in this transition whenever I do it straight after strength training for posterior body in particular. Articulation, awareness and capacity are expanded, and to feel strong in yourself is such a gift.

Thanks .exphys for starting me on the journey 2 years ago, and for the giggles and incredible community you’ve build online.

What we don’t know will always be greater than what we do know… but in arriving closer and more intimately with the present moment - our only appointment, really - we can sense more, feel more, connect more, understand more.

This is a conversation which grows far beyond words.
And interlaced with such play, joy and curiosity ☺️

Thank you Monique, for such a deep dive into for the internal organs of the belly, and gratitude for all who came to learn together 🤍

So look forward to sharing some of these profound practices in future treatments.

Chi, prana, life force - it must circulate, to give life.

Dedicating more time to making shapes this year. On paper, in body, through voice and sound - all ways to move energy through.

Change can be challenge - and it can polish and free us from the clouds and old skins of illusion.
