Massage Basics (a class for couples) with Kari Iverson and Jordin Rodondi

  • Metta Yoga at Cloudbreak 1621 Bridgeway Sausalito, CA, 94965 United States (map)

This class is an opportunity for those who are interested in bringing awareness to their bodies, enhancing their mind-body connection, and experience giving + receiving safe touch.

As a Massage Therapist, I see the benefits of touch every day. Yes, massage can relieve physical discomfort like a champ, but the power of touch goes way beyond that, and HELLO Modern Massage is hosting a special event where you can experience first hand how touch is beneficial to your overall health

  • Touch can improve our sense of proprioception, which is our awareness of where our body is in space. This can lead to feeling more grounded, aware, and “at home” in our bodies. 

  • Touch can reduce stress. When done safely, touch can be extremely calming and help us get out of our heads for a minute

  • Touch can help us connect with our body and be more aware of physical sensations. When we actively work on that mind-body connection, we tap into our intuition and can make more informed decisions about our health and wellbeing.

    FAQs

    Do I need a partner to sign up?

    What kind of sounds are in the sound bath?

    -Jordin will be joining us to provide a sound bath while we work. Sound baths can help to calm the mind, further regulating our nervous systems - which makes it the perfect compliment to our class. The sounds can also help to create a deeper sense of focus and presence in the moment, allowing for a more meaningful and fulfilling experience.
