1 DAY COURSE - UPON REQUEST

When: Saturday, January 14, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m

Where: Avocado Center, Logatec

Registration fee: 110 euros 

Level: beginners, basic level for home use

From the moment I wake up to the moment I fall asleep, I create. If everything else in my life is inconsistent, messy and irrational, living body art is the thing that centers and grounds me. I could list all my achievements, but instead I'll try to tell you the indescribable feeling that comes over me every time I touch a person. When I massage, time stops and I fall into the silence of the body. I start to listen to the heartbeat, my own and the client's, I start to dance with the rhythm of the skin that bends under my fingers. With the help of repeated movements, the massage oil begins to create a flow and a real meditation takes place. I have already tried a number of massages on myself: Thai, Shiatsu, Abhjanga, lymph point massage, Yumeiho, Balinese.

But Balinese always fascinates me,  again and again, because of its simplicity and ability to create a light and harmonious feeling in the body that lasts for several days.

A massage scrub with natural Lulur ingredients is a true authentic ritual that takes you to the heart of the island of the gods with imagination and it's scent. I will tell you about the deep conversations that changed my life and the connections I made that I can't say I would ever had if the arts of dance, touch and natural healing had not been in my life. I will tell you about how the creativity completely ripped me apart and sewed me back together.

Bring with you:

comfortable clothes, massage table (not a requirement for participation, but recommended), 2 massage towels, 2 large old towels that can be stained with turmeric, water heater (1 per couple, optional), wooden cabinet or bucket ( a wooden product is recommended, but it can also be plastic)

I was happy to pamper myself a little with the wonderful Balinese scrub done by Sandra.

Her hands are magical. She used full pressure, that released my blockages while she applied some organic alchemy on my skin.

Personally, I liked the different temperatures and feelings, brought to me by scrubs.

After the treatment, my skin was very soft, moisturized and relaxed.

Sandra also does a great facial massage, it felt like in heaven.

Thank you Sandra for this beautiful gift and I hope so, that more people can experience it, who will take care of their body with something like this love alchemy.

Sandra has a magic hands. Her Balinese scrub and massage was so caring, present and relaxing that during the face massage I felt into a deep and rejuvenating sleep. 

And my skin that I usually I don’t care much about it was soft, nurtured and thankful. So grateful that Sandra discovered her new natural gift. 

Highly recommended

Hi Sandra, after your massage I felt that my body was releasing and expelling anything not needed. I had to cry, to blow my nose, to poop

After reflection I realized that you released the pressure on the right side of my neck and ear that has been with me for the past 2.5 years (sometimes more present, sometimes less present). I cried because I felt I didn't know how to exist without that pressure.

For me, that pressure is connected to the pressure in my academic career, I've sort of learned to live with it, even though the only use it has is to signalise that I'm pressuring myself to keep doing something I don't want to do anymore.

Nevertheless, when that pressure was gone, I felt like I lost a part of me that has been defining, and that loss released the tears. I felt relief and grief, and the space for my own redefinement. But it is scary. Thank you again for the massage, which triggered processes in me, from the body to the mind and back to the body.

Your massage made me feel soft, nurtured and grounded. I felt the spirit of Bali in Slovenia and on my skin hours after the massage, being held by the smell of the plants and reminded of my wilderness and tenderness at the same time
