Thai Massage
Tara is amazing! I've traveled throughout Thailand and had some very good Thai massages while there. However, Tara's massage was by far the best! I've never felt so zenned out after a massage in my life! Tara is also very capable with helping to heal any ongoing injuries through her massage practice. 100% would recommend! ~ M. Holt, North Vancouver
My overall experience was life altering. Not just learning thai massage, but experiencing the island, the venue, the residents and my co-students. It was beautiful, calm, relaxing, rejuvenating, and inspiring, I couldn't imagine a better place to spend time and learn. I felt as though we gained a wealth of knowledge, and I am confident to practice a full body thai massage when I go home. Tara was amazing, with kindness, Spirit, and a calm that all enhanced my experience." ~ M. Harbourne, Airdire, AB
Tara is such a beautiful healer. In all the Thai Massage sessions I've received from her she has brought such vivid presence, nurturing loving touch and her deep wisdom of the body's healing. She is a wise, gentle soul and is profoundly gifted at what she does. I feel very blessed to have her as a practitioner and would absolutely recommend that if you feel called, you nurture yourself with the gift of her massage. ~ K. Anderson, Hornby Island
Coaching
"Tara has a sensitivity and capacity for listening that is moving both in the emotional and literal sense. I appreciated her capacity as a mirror, and her ability to get to the core of the things that are blocking change. Her quiet attention has a transformational effect, and her gentleness more power than any aggressive over-the-top motivational approach. She is patient, has a smiling centred presence, and brings a loving kindness to aspects of the self that have been lying dormant. Tara inspired me to admit my desires. She encouraged me to take actions that are manageable and enjoyable. She has a kindness and persistence that dormant desires need to seed and take spout." L.Vettese, Toronto ON
"I’m not always the most forthcoming with my emotions and thoughts, and didn’t know if I was going to be able to open up enough to really benefit from coaching. The results! I felt justified in my choices, I felt empowered by my thoughts and actions, and I felt excited about my future. Tara gave me the confidence in myself that I was going in the right direction. For someone that is just coming into this industry, it felt as though Tara had been helping people for a long time. There was an ease with her tone, and everything was very comfortable." ~ C. Webber, Biesker Alberta
"I signed up for coaching with Tara after ending a relationship, I wanted closure and to re-establish a healthy daily routine. She offered me encouragement and confidence, and helped me to see that I can create the kind of changes in my life that I want. I really appreciated her ability to keep me moving and digging into to new places of understanding so I could resolve some poor habits and unresolved emotions. I would recommend Tara because she is a natural. She is genuinely caring and passionate about healthy living, it comes through and moves you into a better version of you, drawn from your desires and imagination." ~ M. Mulligan, Calgary Alberta
Yoga
My experience with Tara was great,she is a wonderful teacher who leads you through your practice with a calm and sweetness that helps you to connect with your spirit and body. I practiced with Tara for two weeks during a thai yoga massage course in Thailand, during this time I became much more connected with my body an soul through asana!
Silvia Sarvano, Italy
Tara is an excellent instructor she is very knowledgeable, always offering options for each asana depending on the varied needs/development of the particular student. She focuses on breathwork and sinking into the asana with a sense of presence. With her calm and reassuring voice, and a grounding presence her classes always left me feeling energized and ready to seize the day! She is an amazing person filled with joy, presence and gratitude. This energy naturally manifests in her classes and in her teachings. I wish she lived closer so I could regularly take her classes!!
