Immersive Yoga with Massage

Imagine settling into a yoga pose, feeling the support beneath you and receiving a gentle massage as you pause. The lighting sets the mood, the space invites you to slow down, and there’s time to notice how you feel.

Join Dionne and Izabela for a two-hour experience blending Hatha, Yin and Restorative Yoga, with massage offered in most poses, finishing with Savasana and sound healing.

When so much of life asks you to give, organise and keep going, this is time set aside for you.

An opportunity to explore movement, enjoy nurturing touch and become more familiar with your body’s responses. You might arrive feeling busy, tired, curious or in need of connection. Whatever you bring, you’re welcome to move and rest at your own pace.

Each event will explore a theme that shapes the yoga, massage, atmosphere and closing sound experience. These may include:

• The physical body: exploring the spine, pelvis, hips or shoulders through movement, stillness and touch.
• The elements: the spaciousness of ether, lightness of air, warmth of fire, fluidity of water and steadiness of earth.
• Energy: drawing inspiration from the yogic traditions of chakras and nadis — energy centres and pathways.
• The senses: exploring sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch, alongside awareness of thoughts, images and other experiences of the mind.
• Emotions and connection: making space for sensuality, tenderness, joy and matters of the heart.

An earth-inspired evening might explore steadiness and support; a water theme could invite flowing movement. A focus on the heart might weave together gentle chest-opening poses, nurturing touch and reflection.

The space around you becomes part of the practice. Thoughtful lighting helps create the atmosphere, while time to settle invites you to notice your surroundings and your place within them.

We’ll also gently explore the senses that help you experience your body from within:

• Vestibular sense — balance and orientation: how you sense movement, gravity and the position of your head as you change poses.
• Proprioception — knowing where your body is: noticing the position of your arms, legs and body without always needing to look.
• Interoception — sensing your inner signals: becoming curious about your breathing, heartbeat, warmth and other sensations within your body.

You don’t need to know these terms or achieve a particular feeling. The invitation is simply to notice, explore and respond with kindness.

We’ll begin together with a welcoming check-in: your name and what you’re bringing with you today. This might be a feeling, an intention or something on your mind. You can share as much or as little as you wish.

From there, we’ll guide you through Hatha, Yin and Restorative Yoga, weaving massage into most poses. There will be opportunities to explore movement, spend time in stillness and receive attentive touch.

Massage is always optional and offered with your consent. You’re welcome to decline touch, adjust a pose or take a rest whenever you need.

We’ll finish in Savasana — also known as Corpse Pose — accompanied by sound healing. Settle into a resting position as sound fills the space, with time to absorb the experience before returning to your evening.

If this sounds like the pause you’ve been looking for, you might like to reserve a place and set the evening aside for yourself.

Come on your own or share the experience with someone you’d love to spend this time with.

Dionne brings 30 years of experience as a bodyworker, with training in holistic integrative therapeutic massage, Thai massage, Indian Head Massage and scar mobilisation techniques, alongside spiritual healing and Reiki to Master level.

Combined with her extensive experience as a yoga teacher, this informs a sensitive, attentive approach to hands-on adjustments. With your consent, she blends gentle yoga adjustments with relaxing massage, giving you time to soften, notice where you’re holding tension and explore a pose more deeply within your own comfortable range.

Being touched by Dionne is an invitation to feel supported, listened to and guided, with respect for your body’s pace and boundaries.

Izabela brings over 20 years of experience in bodywork, with extensive study and training in physiotherapy and a broad background in therapeutic massage, including Swedish, deep tissue and sports massage. She also holds specialist qualifications in pregnancy massage and Indian Head Massage, alongside being a Reiki Master and Teacher and an intuitive practitioner.

Her approach brings together her knowledge of the physical body with a deep appreciation for the relationship between body, breath, emotions and presence. Through attentive touch, massage and gentle support, Izabela invites people to become more aware of their body’s sensations, soften areas of tension and explore movement and rest from within their own comfortable range.

For Izabela, touch is not about forcing the body into a particular position or achieving an outcome. It is an invitation to slow down, listen and receive. In this experience, she brings her many years of hands-on work together with her intuitive and embodied approach, offering massage and supportive touch with care, presence and respect for each person’s boundaries and individual needs.
