Working with Summer
Working with Summer is unique because she teaches with an inquiry-based approach in her yoga classes. She combines different healing modalities to best suit each individual that comes to her for Massage, Watsu, or Yoga.
Summer believes she is learning from her students and clients as much as she gives, teaches, and offers them support, healing techniques, and practices. Through listening deeply, skillful touch and repatterning, and holding a safe and conscious space with her clients, She assists them in becoming more self-aware and self-empowered with their embodied anatomy awareness, movement patterning and breathing awareness, self-healing bodywork practices, relationship with self and other, yoga asana practices, meditative and restorative practices and support on their path of radiant, regenerative health and wellness of mind, body, and spirit.
Summer’s goal is to help make it easier for people to live their healthiest, most empowered, happiest lives with these tools, supporting them to sustainably integrate these practices and awareness into their everyday life.
When you become Summer’s client, she considers herself one of your team members or circle of support. Summer loves to provide referrals and often gives and receives referrals within the Austin Wellness Communities.
