- Learning about the art of touch
- Deepening connection through the breath
- Learning massage techniques that you can take home
- Feeling you 'yes' and honouring your boundaries
- Exploring roles of giving and receiving
- A light-hearted way to shine light on relationship dynamics
- A wordless space that allows full presence
- Connecting with each other free from daily patterns
- A safe space to learn and practice

Soheila - a massage therapist, and Leonie - a breathwork facilitator, .guide you through this day.


Program:

We welcome you at Studio Vliegenbos with a heartwarming cacao drink, and we take a moment to arrive in the space with each other. Then we go into a gentle breathing practice that allows you to feel and connect with yourself before we step into the partner exercise.

During the partner exercise we guide you through breath, sharing and body practices that help you to meet each other from a place of truth and openness - free from assumptions and fully present with each other in the now.

You will both experience the role of giver and receiver on this day. We teach you a sequence to take home with you - that you can practice at any time to deepen and nourish your connection.

Learn ways to explore the breath and body together, and practice different massage techniques. We will first walk through the practice step by step, and you will both practice a free-flow massage afterwards to experience your connection through bodywork more deeply. During the massage, we will walk around and support you where needed.

Included on this day is a delicious lunch at the location. During break time you are welcome to enjoy a refreshing walk through the forest or a sun bath at our roof terrace (if the weather allows;). There will be snacks throughout the day as well.

After we close this day, the practice has only begun! The great thing about this workshop is that it aims to teach you tools that you can take home with you. So you can build on it for more body-awareness and connection at home.


This day includes:

- A welcoming cacao drink
- Exercises for connection
- Opening breathing practice
- Massage techniques for both gentle and deeper bodywork
- Personal guidance by a massage therapist
- Learning about body language
- Recognising desires and your ‘yes’
- Experiencing the roles of giving and receiving
- Live music to rest and integrate

After this day we send you a handout with the Partner Sequence, so you have clear guidance to continue at home. It’s possible to buy cacao at the location as well, so you can include this into your partner sequence at home too.


For who:
This workshop is meant for partners that are looking for a loving, body-based practice to nourish their relationship. You can also come with a friend, if you feel comfortable to share an intimate practice together.
