A Deep Remembering: My first Watsu session

Experiencing A natural state of flow, connecting with the fluid nature of my body, I felt tension dissolve, even down to the joints and ligaments. Summer held me in such a nurturing way, I was able to fully relax and be. The experience was not only embryonic, but primordial, as I felt a connection to the ocean and surrendered into a deep remembering. Like seaweed being danced among the waves. I carried with me a sustained sense of calm and connection to the earth and her waters.

Summer is the best thing that has happened to Austin, Texas. Her dedication, skill and experience resonate through her work. Lovely location and ambience. All austinites must definitely pay a visit. Totally refreshed and relaxed after the massage. Thank you so much Summer!

Receiving Watsu from Summer was the most soothing thing for my soul and body during my pregnancy and postpartum. It was the perfect gentle support that my body needed to feel safe and heal. With the support from Summer and the warm water, it was easy to relax and release.

Summer provides a soothing and relaxing massage that leaves you feeling exceptionally invigorated. The combination of yoga and massage is very beneficial in working out tension and sore muscles. Summer also provides suggestions for taking care of your whole being! I have been to many massage therapists and Summer is without a doubt one of the best in Austin.

I am a 70-year old with lots of arthritic problems. Summer is a true healer — her calm, professional, sensitive and intuitive approach to my aching muscles was amazing. She is a beautiful soul with incredible set of skills that she knows how to apply to your greatest benefit. Summer is the best massage therapist I’ve ever had!

If you have never done watsu, do it! This was my first time and Summer was super informative and helped me feel safe and comfortable.

My relationship with Summer spans almost two decades As a director and full time yoga
professional, I would recommend her without hesitation. Her expertise as a massage therapist
lends a particular degree of advanced understanding of the human body. This, along with her
studies with Donna Farhi gives her an incredible skill set in subtle body practices, which are
exceeded by no one I have ever met.

Summer is an absolutely exceptional yoga teacher. My wife and I have been going to yoga classes for more than twenty years (in Canberra, Durban, London and Austin), but encountering Summer’s classes three or four years ago was a revelation. In the class, you may feel you are not doing very much, but afterwards you feel revitalized. Summer’s classes put one on the road to profound personal transformation, and are quite unlike any other classes we have taken.

Summer’s yoga classes are deeply rejuvenating, and masterfully taught.

As a longtime practitioner, I especially appreciate how she brings her extensive knowledge of the body and healthy movement to the mat, and how she provides a loving, supportive structure within which students get to explore and feel the effects of the practice, not just hurry through to get to the next pose.

Thank you Summer, for being an expert teacher, sharing your wisdom with the world!
