Relax your Body - Open your Heart
during this Cacao & Therapeutics
Full Moon celebration in Vienna.
The heart-opening and relaxing effects of the Cacao combine perfectly with therapeutics and massage. We will start with a beautiful Cacao Ceremony and guide you through a sequence of alternating Flying Therapeutics and Thai massage. This special workshop will leave you feeling relaxed and in love with life. A big experimental space and safe to explore the healing touch, adding stretches and lower back decompression techniques. No partner or experience needed, come as you are and wear something comfortable.
What to expect
Expect a safe space where you can explore the potent combination of the healing qualities of multiple practices together. You will be guided step by step and also encouraged to explore what your body needs.
Heart-Opening Cacao Ceremony
We will start our session with a beautiful Cacao Ceremony, designed to open your heart and heighten your receptivity to love and connection. This ancient ritual uses the natural properties of ceremonial cacao to soften and relax and invite warmth into your spirit, setting a perfect tone for being on both the receiving and giving end of the experiences that follow.
Therapeutic Flying (All Levels)
Therapeutic Flying is part of AcroYoga and is also known as Lunar Acroyoga. Using yoga poses and Thai massage techniques to help relax and unwind the body. Whether you're new to AcroYoga or looking to deepen your practice, this session is tailored to foster trust and balance between partners. You’ll explore gentle, partner-supported poses that soothe your nervous system and decompress your spine for deep relaxation.
We will alternate the Therapeutic Flying with grounding Thai massage stretches so the reciprocity between giver and receiver is more balanced. The similarity between these 2 therapeutics art forms will be very clear and with the adaptations, also accessible to everyone.
If you are more experienced and like to explore Therapeutic flying more, join with a partner of similar level and we will show you more advanced moves too.
Guided Thai Massage Session
The event will conclude with a guided Thai Massage session, where the art of touch and the spirit of generosity come together. This guided practice not only deepens your massage skills but also enhances the relaxation and connection initiated by the cacao ceremony. We combine acupressure, stretching, and assisted yoga poses to release tension and stress. You will learn a sequence accessible to all, allowing you to both give and receive a rejuvenating 20-minute massage that energizes rather than exhausts.
Join us for this unique event with 3 transformative practices in a beautiful, heart-opening space. Together, let’s breathe, stretch, and connect through our bodies into our hearts.
To feel comfortable during this event, we advise you to wear comfortable clothes that you can easily move in. After the cacao ceremony, you will be asked to remove any jewelry for your own safety and comfort.
You don’t need any experience with any of these practices, you will be guided every step of the way. We will show the exercises at different levels and you will stay with the level you’re comfortable with. If you do have experience, we will encourage you to work with someone similar to your level so you can explore safely.
