Esalen massage was developed in Big Sur, California, and is an intuitive, blend of techniques utilizing long, slow, flowing strokes that cover the entire body. These strokes help create a sense of connection and wholeness in the recipient.
There are no abrupt transitions, only a stream of seamless, integrated movements that deepen as the practitioner’s hands, fingers, and forearm begin to find specific areas of tension.
Other techniques include gentle stretching, rhythmic rocking, and passive movement of the joints as each of these can help increase range of motion and loosen tight muscles. Throughout the session, the practitioner will pause, creating stillness and space for the Guest to integrate the feelings.
Ideal for beginners and those curious about Esalen, these one-day workshop offers a rich foundation in touch, presence, and basic philosophies.
For those wanting to go deeper, the two-day format includes more time for exploration, partner work, and demonstrations in a relaxed and supportive settings.
Whether you're new to message or looking to expand your existing practive, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and grow with the EsalenⓇ philosophy of touch.
All Workshops will be held at our inspiring new training center.
