    I attended the back and shoulders workshop. Linda teaches the techniques so that you can apply them immediately afterwards, even if you have never massaged yourself. Linda creates such a warm, atmospheric and safe environment to practice, i’m going to take the head and neck workshop next month too!

    I have just completed Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Therapist Training Levels 1-4 with Despina in London and I don’t really know how to put in words increadibly beautiful transformational experience I have just had, so I will mention just few things which make this training outstanding: 1. Despina is a real master in the field of Ayurvedic Yoga Massage, her skills, knowledge, experience and professionalism go much beyond what average massage trainers can offer. 2. She is also super talented regarding the teaching skills, so you can be sure everything will be explained and demonstrated to you in a very clear and effective way and additionally you’ll get lots of guidance and advices regarding practical aspect of starting your own business. 3. The atmosphere is lovely, lots of joy, smile and understanding, there is a space for everybody’s needs, during the training in London everyone felt safe, respected and nurtured. Despina’s approach to her students embraces each student’s uniqueness and individualism while at the same time she creates sense of community and support for each other. 4. The amount and quality of this extraordinary massage you’ll receive yourself apart from giving it – are definitely important additional reasons why this training is absolutely fantastic unforgettable experience. 5. The training is 100% eco friendly and once you try Despina’s healthy delicious food you will want to get all the recipes to try them all by yourself, at least this happened to me 🙂

    What Joanna offers is not just a massage but an experience! Starting from creating a little oasis in your own home, the way she holds the space for you, these divinely aromatic oils she makes and the massage itself which is nothing I have ever experienced before! She is fully present and it can be felt. There is such a tremendous amount of care in her touch and the assisted yoga stretches make you feel a new level of openness and lightness – you feel renewed!She also encourages you to set an intention before the treatment and to work with an affirmation. This isn’t just any massage and she is a true blessing!
