Give & Receive: The Art of Restorative Touch

October 4 @ 1:15 PM - 2:30 PM EDT

Martial arts training asks a great deal of our bodies, yet recovery is an essential part of sustaining strength, mobility, and longevity in our practice. In this experiential workshop, participants will explore simple, consent-based touch practices to support muscular release, relaxation, and recovery. Through partner work, we’ll practice techniques such as compression, gentle rocking, traction, and supportive touch while developing greater sensitivity to pressure, boundaries, and the body’s responses. We’ll explore the complementary skills of giving and receiving—learning how to offer attentive, responsive touch and how to soften, listen, and receive support. Solo adaptations will be offered for anyone who prefers to work independently. Participants will leave with practical restorative tools they can use with themselves and their training partners both on and off the mat.
