I’m Clara (they/dey), I’m queer, read as white but I’m mixed-race, grew up in paris, I speak four languages, so feel free to tell me if one of them is your mother tongue 🙂
I come from the literature and the theater world, discovered dance with 20 and decided to make the bold move to dance “professionally”. I danced and performed over the years in some nice queer performances and parallelly discovered shiatsu in 2014. I quite early had the interest to learn bodywork to share the knowledge you get when you train in dance, and therefore be useful for others in a more therapeutic way.
2018 I finished my training and started to give sessions. In November 2023 I finally achieved the Heilpraktiker and this October 2024 I started a part time training in Osteopathy (OSD Berlin), as I want to better understand the physiological structures of our body and the connections that exist there.
My experience in dance and somatic practices (which I was very fond of) made me feel and acknowledge the own agency and intelligence of the body. When I give a session of shiatsu, I am very much led from my intuition that puts my knowledge into place to offer you one moment of touch that feels right for you now. It is then a dialogue between you and me where I follow you and try to make invitations for your body to bloom and understand itself.
Shiatsu was developed in Japan and has its roots in Chinese medicine.
Thousand years of empirical research made this bodywork acknowledge energy lines called Meridians and created a map that goes through our body. Chinese medicine believes that we as humans are connected to the elements of this earth, to nature and to the other species.
During a session you can experience yourself through your body, let it be for rest, for new discoveries, for discovering emotional patterns or feeling what is beneath the every-day hustle. You get a moment and specific touch to be able to focus and do what you need.
Shiatsu:
Shiatsu as I learned and practiced it has this specific focus on the boundaries of the body and the person. A session wants to mirror you, so your body is called to make the work to recognize the tensions, the patterns all what makes the moment “now”, and can from there initiate change and release if wanted.
It can be a mind-blow, it can be underwhelming and require more attempts to be able to wire this connection to your body, Shiatsu requires time and the best also, regularity.
If this awakens your interest: write me an email and explain to me what are your intentions for a session, why would you like to try it or anything that makes you comfortable to share before a first session.
Shiatsu sessions are 60 or 90min, for a first session 90min could be great but not necessary. Write me if finances are short, we find a solution together 🙂
