    This was just such an incredible massage! Despina has such incredible skill knowing when to do deep work that releases the muscles and tension, alongside more relaxing work that meant I really sunk into the massage. I felt really energised and able to move my body after the session and will absolutely be booking in with her again. What a joy to have such an intuitive and skilled massage therapist in Leeds!
  • Nazia

    I recently completed my level 1& 2 training with Despina and it’s honestly changed my life. The training was very informative and Despina is such a patient teacher and a beautiful soul. The AYM community is so supportive and I feel I’ve made friends for life. It’s been a real journey of self acceptance and finding my passion. I would highly recommend the training to anyone, it’s Unlike any training course I’ve ever experienced. Thank you so much.
