Aloha and
welcome... e komo
mai! ** Update: Having recently relocated home to Hawai'i from Europe, I am currently without a pool... and thus unable to offer aquatic sessions at this time. Once I find a suitable and available warm pool on Maui I will update this site and make information available. Please check back or send an email to enquire about possible sessions. Mahalo!
For information on table-based bodywork sessions at my home in upcountry Olinda, visit my other website: http://www.riverbodyworks.com
Aquatic bodywork is a family of gentle yet revolutionary therapies (Watsu®, WaterDance, etc.) performed in a pool of very warm water. As an instructor of healing arts and a bodyworker for twenty years, I consider the aquatic therapies to be the most beautiful healing modalities that exist. My own adaptation, Soul Waves, reflects an integration and expression of many different styles and approaches that I have studied.
Warm water offers a profound medium for healing transformation. As the therapist synchronizes his breath to that of the client, a natural resonance develops. Movement is gently channeled through the therapist's body to his/her partner. In this healing dance, areas of holding (both physical and emotional) begin to open and release. The debilitating effects of trauma can gently unwind. Energy work is amplified. Blocked energies are opened by movement, waves and spirals. Floating in the warm water with eyes closed, the receiver drifts and dances in a beautiful experience of lightness, grace, movement and intimacy.
Step into the tranquil pool... and find yourself in a remarkable, liquid cocoon of trust, relaxation, support, healing, and transformation.
