Come and join us in a Friends and Couples Yoga Massage Workshop during workshop week 2025 and spend a day at HealthWork Yoga & Massage Therapy in Albuquerque, NM, where you’ll not only learn the fundamentals of massage but also cultivate deeper connections with those you care about.

Bring your friend, your significant other, or anyone you love and care about, and learn how to give a therapeutic massage that promotes relaxation and wellness. You don’t have to be a professional massage therapist; this workshop is designed for everyone eager to learn how to assist their friends in feeling better.

This workshop is not just for couples but for all human relationships! We promise that you will have fun learning how to nurture your friends and loved ones through various therapeutic massage techniques. Expect to learn specific stances for working comfortably on the floor, effective remedial massage strokes that relieve tension, yoga poses that enhance flexibility, breathing techniques that promote relaxation, and even elements of Thai massage that enrich the experience. Bring your spouse, friend, family member, or neighbor, and discover how you can impact someone else’s well-being through the art of massage, which has been practiced for centuries to improve health and foster connection.

The Benefits of Massage: Engaging in massage not only alleviates stress and tension but also enhances emotional well-being by fostering bonds between people. Studies have shown that physical touch, such as massage, releases oxytocin—the hormone associated with bonding—which can improve trust and intimacy. Additionally, you’ll gain practical skills to help loved ones manage day-to-day anxiety and physical discomfort.

What to Expect: Throughout the day, participants can expect a blend of instruction and hands-on practice. The workshop will begin with warm-up activities to prepare the body, followed by demonstrations of various techniques. Participants will practice these techniques in pairs, allowing everyone to both give and receive massages. Instructors will provide personalized feedback, ensuring that everyone leaves with a solid understanding of the skills taught.
