Sharing Touch in Yoga Classes

Sharing Touch and Massage in A Yoga or Movement Class

I love sharing some mini-massage treatments during relaxation at the end of a class. It’s such a lovely way to connect and share some mindfulness and meditation. But, in the past I’ve got about it in a very clumsy manner, with good intentions but not enough consideration. I am preparing to teach a ..read more
