Other Offerings
Community classes and CEU’s
In addition to our Massage Therapy Certificate program, SŌMA will host community wellness classes throughout the year. We will also bring in guest instructors to offer continuing education opportunities to our existing community of bodyworkers.
Classes will be open to the public and LMT’s will be able to receive CEU certificates from licensed classes.
If you or someone you know would be interested in teaching a community class please reach out to us! We would love to talk with you.
UPCOMING EVENTS BELOW!
Community Class: Breathwork
Sunday April 27, 2025
10AM
Breathwork: an invitation to experience deeper presence and relaxation in your body.
Feel lighter and brighter as we create spaciousness and freedom.
Learning the art of breath titration and pendulation cultivates an anchoring in the felt sense and witness in being.
Maintaining a continuous circular breath and felt-sense awareness, we unwind tension by allowing movement, sound and gentle touch.
I am grateful to be your guide and hold space as you explore deeper self-connection and inner wisdom
Blessings,
Douglas Austin
BBTRS-certified breathwork facilitator, embodiment guide & mystic
