WHAT'S ON

WTF Thursdays: Physical Education

Come to PHYSICAL EDUCATION to play and enjoy pairing the function of self-massage tools with your creativity.

Got a massage, spikey, tennis, golf or lacrosse ball, maybe even a foam roller and don’t know how to use it?

Join me for a PHYSICAL EDUCATION

We will be playing with self-massage equipment to figure out how to pair the function of the tools with your creativity

Together, we will explore:

typical and non-typical self-massage tools
how to move with your massage tools
ways of embedding a self-massage into your daily practice that supports your body with care

What to bring:

any (non-electric) self-massage equipment you’d like to navigate
something to take notes with

I look forward to treating you.

with lots of care,

nya

About the Host

Nya Bardouille (she/her)

Investigating the essences that honour the interdependence and connection of and between body systems has become an essential part of Nya’s development as a holistic movement/massage therapist and dance artist. Her evolving practice is centred around exploring massage through movement. By embodying self-nourishing behaviours, her classes pivot around learning how to listen to your body’s intuitive and instinctual desires for self-given intimacy. The connection between mind, body and movement is enriched by touch, and being able to share the gift of indulging in movement for comfort, craving and softness is how she encourages movers to reconnect, heal and live in the homes that are our bodies.
