These somatic explorations awaken the senses and promote grounding\u2014the foundation for clear, caring giving and receiving of touch.<\/p>\n<p>At the table, we focus our attention on body mechanics, grounding, and flow. Step by step, you will learn the fundamental techniques of Esalen Massage: the long, connecting strokes in the prone and supine positions.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, we deepen our work with nuanced touch and supportive techniques. These refine perception and expand the natural intelligence of the hands. Through guided practice and feedback, the teaching team will guide you in developing trust, presence, and a harmonious flow.<\/p>\n<p>This workshop is designed for beginners as well as massage therapists who wish to return to the simplicity and presence of mindful touch.<\/p>\n<p>It is also valuable preparation for anyone considering future Esalen Massage training. It can be credited as Module 1 of the Esalen Massage training at Kientalerhof.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the Global Village Gathering, you are invited to participate in all communal activities\u2014morning meditation, movement sessions, and evening programs.
