“This class changed my life and the trajectory of my business! It also helped me to look at each little life lesson as an opportunity. I am now holding space for people through body-oriented coaching and Somatic Touch Therapy. Each time I have practiced attuned touch and embodied presence, I have felt myself calming, too. This class was a life-changing, mindset-shift tutorial that I will practice for the rest of my life.”
“Dearest Fernando, this class was powerful and transformed me in so many ways. I am a different person. I now feel love for myself and put myself first. Your loving kindness allowed me to feel safe to speak and be seen. You have changed my life. Today was the first day I massaged with no pain. I said no to deep work. This class helped me love what I do again.”
“After driving six hours home from class, I stopped at a grocery store. Normally, I despise grocery shopping, but everything felt in slow motion. The buzzing around me didn’t bother me. I was fully present and floating through the aisles. Even the raindrops on my car became beautiful. That’s when I knew something in me had changed.”
“This course was absolutely life-changing for me! I can’t wait to go deeper and to offer it to my clients. I would recommend it to any bodyworker—or really any human—looking to deepen their connection with themselves and with others.”
“It’s hard to put into words how much this workshop has impacted me. After twenty years of massage, I have a completely new way of approaching mindfulness. The biggest takeaway was self-love. I didn’t realize how much I needed to learn these simple yet effective ways to listen, pause, and be present with myself first. I am forever grateful for this experience.”
“This experience was definitely life-changing. I didn’t know what I signed up for, just looking to complete my CE requirements. I’ve learned techniques that will help me be a more in-tune individual. So grateful for Fernando. His sensitivity allows you to feel vulnerable and soft. This was the beginning of something great for me.”
“My experience with Fernando in the class was superb! In forty years as a massage therapist, he is one of the best. He led with his heart as well as his mind in this brilliant, beautiful class.”
“This class was steeped in love, awareness, knowledge, wit, respect, and humor. Perfect for those who need a personal reset in a safe community that will translate to family and clients. Unforgettable.”
“I believe this class has the ability to not only change your life but the lives of your clients and everyone you encounter. I will definitely be attending the next class.”
“This class was a beautiful surprise, a homecoming to my own body and being. I left deeply relaxed and restored, with fresh perspectives I plan to explore with my toughest clients. Fernando has cultivated something truly special.”
