Transformative Bodywork: Breaking limiting patterns through Body & Breath
What is Transformative Bodywork?
Transformative Bodywork is a unique, holistic approach to understanding yourself and creating lasting change through the body. It combines conscious touch, breath awareness, and dialogue to explore the connection between body, mind, and emotions.
In this collaborative process, we begin by tuning into the breath and bodily sensations. This opens the door to deeper self-awareness, allowing you to connect with where you are—fully and without judgment.
Through this safe, supportive space, long-held patterns, protective mechanisms, and emotional blockages can naturally surface. Together, we work to release them through the body, making space for clarity, freedom, and ease.
Benefits of Transformative Bodywork:
• Release physical tension and chronic stress
• Improve emotional well-being and resilience
• Increase energy flow and vitality
• Reintegrate lost parts of your potential
• Enhance relaxation, clarity, and self-confidence
• Free up energy for your current goals—whether physical recovery, creative projects, or personal growth
Transformative Bodywork invites a deep, lasting transformation, helping you reconnect with your natural sense of integrity, inspiration, and well-being.
What happens in a session?
Each session is a collaborative experience, tailored to your needs and intentions. Through a combination of touch, breathing awareness, and dialogue, we explore the wisdom of your body.
You’ll discover:
• How to listen to your body’s signals
• How to release old patterns of protection and tension
• How to cultivate a relaxed, focused state of awareness
• How to channel released energy into healing, creativity, or everyday goals
Your active participation—both during and between sessions—greatly enhances the process.

Setting Your Personal Goals
In your first session, we’ll clarify your focus—whether it’s physical healing, emotional clarity, or breaking free from stuck life patterns.
Common goals include:
• Easing chronic pain or physical discomfort
• Releasing emotional tension or fears
• Breaking repetitive thought cycles or habits
• Opening to new possibilities and greater self-confidence
As old, unconscious patterns dissolve, you’ll experience more space for ease, joy, and fresh perspectives.

How Many Sessions Will You Need?
The duration of the process depends on:
• Your specific goals
• How long the issue has been present
• Your age and physical condition
• Your commitment to the process
Generally, 10 sessions - 1 per week - is recommended to consolidate lasting change.
Many clients notice clear shifts within the first 3–5 sessions. After about 4 weeks of regular work, we’ll review your progress and discuss how or whether to continue.
It is also possible to book an intensive of 2 sessions per day 1 morning, 1 afternoon for 3-4 days for the with limited time but large ambition to shift their stare more rapidly.
Above all, this work respects your freedom—you’re welcome to stop at any time if it doesn’t feel right for you.

Group Bodywork Workshop
In addition to the one on one sessions, I also facilitate group Bodywork sessions.
These are often part of an event or retreat to support and integrate the dance and contact work.
The sessions involve physical exercises to raise the level of energy in the body and bring a collective attention to giving and receiving touch.
I offer some principles & techniques to come in to touch with others with clarity and ease in one’s own body. And we explore these through exchange with a partner or partners.
Afterwards we have a verbal sharing with the partner or group we exchanged with to integrate and process the experience.
The techniques for this workshop are drawn from a combination of the Transformative Bodywork approach and from my experiences as a dancer and Contacter over my career of moving and working with touch.
