Introduction to Esalen® Massage Workshop
Have you ever been curious what sets Esalen® massage apart from other massage techniques?
During our workshops together, we will explore the history of Esalen, Esalen® massage and how it’s style was inspired by the energy of it’s birthplace on the Pacific coast ~ and then elevated through dance and movement to become a known and much respected body of work taught worldwide. We will learn how Esalen® massage embodies nurturing, technique and movement to make this style so unique. We focus on body awareness, ours - and the person we are working with. We emphasize the importance of Self-Care and Body Mechanics as we move through our sessions. Not only will we explore the nurturing aspects of the “presence, pace and pause” and Esalen’s signature long strokes, but how vital movement is to the Esalen philosophy. This encourages opportunities for healing, organically in giving and receiving Esalen® Massage.
These workshops are perfect for anyone ranging from ~ a seasoned massage practitioner who wants to learn some “million dollar moves” to ~ beginners & anyone who has an interest in massage.
I have received massage from many therapists, but none can meet the expectation I have after receiving my first one from Tracie at the sensitive age of 13 years old. I was always so comfortable with her and able to gain a better depth of self-confidence and healthy habits to live by. Her presence and healing touch are quite impossible to match in my experience. My connection with Tracie has helped me immensely in all areas of my life including going on to learn massage myself. Her workshops give you a perfect atmosphere to learn and master techniques as well as gain insight into myself. She is truly a goddess in my book...

A Woman’s Sanctuary Workshops
My experiences have shown “by returning home, & reconnecting to self, we can deepen our connections to others.”
These workshops are created to offer a safe and sacred place for women, or those who identify a women, to connect with others who share what it’s like to be female, in bodies, minds & spirits. Our workshops will provide a safe environment and create a community of women to offer support to one another. The format will include, but not be limited too, self and partner massage, art, writing, singing/chanting, dance, yoga and guided meditation. We will also combine self-care rituals & releasing exercises,
Many of us have experienced a “Me Too” experience, surgical interventions and/or other trauma. This will be a place of support where we will come together as a Tribe of Women, of Wisdom and Youth, and offer healing and restoration to one another. Women are by far each others greatest healers. Unfortunately, that is not what society taught us… we have been desensitized to our feelings and boundaries, taught to compete with one another and that our bodies are a commodity….
~ it’s time to change the narrative!
“I attended the a workshop led by Tracie called journey home to self,
and it was one of those weekends that I can trace back to being a catalyst for SO much shifting within me and my life timeline, including a career switch, cross-state move, and deep healing. Tracie has a way of making you feel so loved, welcome, and comfortable no matter what’s going on in your life, what your background or experience is. She made all of us feel so safe and held. She is so full of unconditional love and light and has so much wisdom and skills to share. I learned so many fun things, healed, released, and got to meet amazing women during this experience. I highly recommend Tracie’s workshops and can’t wait to join her again!”
