Feel to heal

The Art of Ecstatic Touch

My name is Lara Kolesar and I am an embodiment teacher with a rich expertise in yoga, pilates, GYROTONIC®, massage and dance.

Imagine coming into relaxed connection with universal wisdom and fullness of experience in your body-mind connection, where all is well, blissful and there is a knowing of what comes next.

We are given the gift of sentience, the capacity to feel and perceive from our skin, eyes, muscles, tissues and organs. This allows us to experience our selves as pure awareness receiving the variety and beauty of physical and energetic life.

Most of us long for authentic connection and communing with ourselves and others. But so much of our true nature is a mystery to us, waiting to unfold. One way to reveal our true nature is through participating in communing. When we turn our attention to our feeling awareness in our bodies and listen to its communication we can then respond, move, & take action with heartfelt care.

The Art of Ecstatic Touch is an embodiment process which expands our ability to commune with ourselves, others,  nature, and the cosmic dimensions. It can be applied to meditation, movement, exercise, pleasure practices and the healing arts (bodywork, yoga, shamanic ritual). It opens our capacity to listen & respond.

For the last 25 years, I have been exploring and creating new ways to support the body and translate its intelligence through touch, breath and movement. I developed the Kolesar Body Knowledge Method for Pilates Instructors and I now offer my latest creation, The Art of Ecstatic Touch, out of my passion for accessing the deep healing potential of the body when it’s experienced as a sacred instrument of human potential.

I combine my expertise in Pilates, Yoga, GYROTONIC®, Anatomy, Massage, Dance, Embodied Sensuality, and Personal Development to remind people of their body’s trustworthy wisdom. I am passionate about using touch and sensory intuition to remind your body through its innate, ecstatic expression of pleasure that love has purpose.
