  • A floor (mat) based massage style, fully clothed, working with slow deep stretches, static pressure, gentle rocking movement, and still listening touch.

    I practice Thai massage as a meditation of movement and stillness, with the intention to hold a clear space for you to enter deep states of rest, self-healing, and insight.

    It is a practice of listening and following an intuitive flow that includes slow deep stretches, acupressure work, and rhythmical movement.

    I also incorporate fascial work and elements of Craniosacral therapy.

    Overall, receiving Thai massage is an opportunity to "polish the mirror."

  • Justin began his journey with Thai massage in 2006 through the fusion practice of AcroYoga, starting formal study in 2007 and continuing to study with a variety of teachers in Europe and Asia, mainly in the Sunshine Network tradition.

    He began assisting courses at Sunshine House Greece and elsewhere in 2011 and has been gradually building his teaching practice since.

    He now teaches regularly in Brighton and the South East and runs "Moving Stillness - School of Somatics," offering private tuition, workshops, and soon a certified beginners course in Thai massage.

    He also teaches Contact Improvisation and Body Skills and has a background in Kung Fu and Yoga.

Kika Degani & Johnny Appleton

 
  • Lomi Lomi is a healing bodywork practice from Hawaii. It is about slowing down, presence, and connection.

    It serves as a pathway to reconnection with our bodies, delving into our deeper selves through a transformative journey.

    Adding a twist to the magic, 4-handed sessions see both practitioners fully present, creating a safe space for receivers to connect.

    The slow, dance-like movements foster a sense of synchronicity, inviting the entire body-mind system to surrender and open up to a nourishing, transpersonal experience.

    Each Lomi Lomi massage is unique, guiding both receivers and practitioners on a journey of presence, connection, and healing.

  • Johnny and Kika have been getting creative with their 4-handed Lomi Lomi sessions for just under a year.

    They're both certified practitioners, having trained with Dan Joy at stayintouch.earth.

    With Johnny bringing in 15 years of massage therapy experience and Kika just shy of a year practicing, they combine expertise and passion to create unparalleled experiences.
