Hannah Ruth Massage & Movement

09/01/2025

Starting this Tuesday, 9/2!

Prop Empowered Yoga at Hannah Ruth Massage & Movement, 139 Main St, #706 A in Brattleboro. A strong, slow flow with plenty of space and encouragement for the generous use of props, including blocks, straps, blankets, balls, and bolsters. We will check in with ourselves, notice what’s there, and move with it. Every cue is an invitation. Every breath is your own. Be gentle with yourself. Go at your own pace. Practice your own way.

Class will happen every Tuesday for the foreseeable future, 6:30-7:30pm. After 6pm, downtown parking is free! Sliding scale, $5-$30/class. Class limited to 5 students. BYO mat if you can, though I've got a couple to share (including extra wide for you beauties who'd like a little more breathing room!).

If you are interested in joining but Tuesday evenings are not workable for you, please be in touch! Things can shift or classes can be added if there is enough interest.

See y'all on the mat!

Saw my first few clients here this week! With each one I feel more settled and grounded. What a treat to welcome folks in!

👉🏼 Important note: I am headed to the mountains this week and will be disconnecting from Weds 8/20 through Sun 8/24… which really means I will be connecting even more with mama nature and my family, especially my 10mo old nephew! Feel free to contact me, and I will follow up when I return.

Spent the whole day today at the new space, assembling furniture, sprucing, and adding little touches. It’s really coming along! And the afternoon light is impeccable. I can’t wait to welcome you all in. So many kind souls have donated items to help the space come to life. Thank you ever so. You are truly wonderful.

Greetings, all! I have some exciting and bittersweet news to share. First, the exciting part...

For the first time in my career, I am finally opening a studio space of my own. The space is in the Hooker-Dunham Block at 139 Main St #706 A, in downtown Brattleboro.

This will be a home for my longtime massage practice, and also a hub for small yoga classes, micro dance rehearsals, and mini performance salons at night. As I gather all of my practices and passions into one room, I am renaming my business Hannah Ruth Massage & Movement.

And now, for the bittersweet... At the end of August I will be moving on from offering massage at Inner Heat Yoga. I am truly grateful for all the new faces I've met through my work there, and grateful to Alaina, Carolina, and Andrew for welcoming me in. It's not a full fledged goodbye though, as I will continue teaching yoga at Inner Heat's beautiful studios.

I will be hosting an open house at my new space during September Gallery Walk and you are most welcome to stop by and check it out! There will be snacks. Here are the details...

Hannah Ruth Massage & Movement
Open House
Friday, September 5th
4pm-8pm
139 Main St, #706 A

Enter through the green door to the left of The Shoe Tree. Head up the stairs, then up the second flight of stairs to the right. At the top, turn and go to the end of the hall and through the center door. Hannah Ruth Massage & Movement is the first door on the left once you enter the suite. I expect to have signs posted to help lead the way.

A note about accessibility...
The Hooker-Dunham Block is an historic building with lots of character, and as such it does not have an elevator. If the space is inaccessible to you and you are interested in booking with me, I am happy to offer house calls for massage and private yoga sessions at no additional cost. If house calls are also not available to you, we can meet at a friend's studio which has many fewer steps up, or I'll be glad to discuss other options. Feel free to be in touch in case you'd like to chat more. hannahruthmassage (at) gmail (dot) com

Finally, I am continuing to move in and collect the furnishings that will make the space feel like home. Here are some things I am still looking for, in case you'd like to sell or share...
-heavy duty adjustable steel wire shelf unit, 48" W x 72" H x 18" D
-ceramic water crock dispenser with a spigot that will work with large water jugs
-small table for tea station
-electric kettle
-jumbo half round massage bolster
-boot tray(s)
-scarves/linens to use as small table cloths (deep blue, brick red, white/neutrals, spring green...)

I think that's it for now! Many thanks for reading. I hope to see you very soon.

All my best,
Hannah Ruth
