    STAA is excited to be hosting its 4th practitioner circle, a space where we can gather together to support, to connect and to enhance our professional development skills as a community. 

    Each circle, a new speaker will facilitate, so we can discover new offerings, explore diverse teachings and expand our community connections. Together we can nurture a community of practitioners with our mutual support and inspiration. 

    For our circle in May we welcome Jules and Sam. 

    Jules and Sam will be guiding us through an exploration of informed bodywork with the Wheel of Consent model.  This  experiential circle will invite participants to:

    •    reflect on their experiences of receiving bodywork,
    •    develop skills to track their experiences whilst treating,
    •    create more awareness of the different types of touch,
    •    feel into ways to co-create check in protocols with clients. 

    Jules is a somatic therapist and somatic sex educator based in Naarm. They work with individuals to move through periods of stuckness, process trauma and develop skills in emotional and nervous system regulation. 

    Sam is a somatic sex educator based in Naarm. They teach erotic embodiment classes online, see clients for interactive erotic education and develop courses and workshops in the field of somatic sex education. 

    We look forward to you joining us for the opportunity to connect creatively, to grow, and to take a deep breath in our shared care of others and ourselves.
