What is ThaiYoga Massage?

Thai Massage is a unique and powerful healing art that has been an integral part of traditional Thai medicine for thousands of years. It is a truly wonderful experience for both the giver and the receiver. Energy blockages are released, boundaries dissolve and deep healing occurs in a space of full presence and meditation.

 A Thai massage session blends elements of Acupressure, Yoga, Reflexology, Physiotherapy, Meditation, Energy Healing, Chiropractic and Ayurveda.

 It's a very Holistic therapy where the human being is seen and treated as an ever-changing network of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects that all influence each other. Its primary aim is to restore and balance the body’s energy system which is comprised of a multitude of energy lines that run through the body. 

 

What is Wùo Taï?

Wùo Taï is an evolution of osteopathy. The person who coined this name, Roland Combes, is a passionate osteopath with several years of clinical experience who found that the practice of osteopathy was lacking the beauty element and, inspired by both Asian trends in Body Therapy and Dance, brought Osteopathy to the futon to be able to Dance with the bodies in a kind of tango of mutual healing. This is how the Dance of the Fascias or Osteo-Dance was born around the change of millennia.


“Wùo” comes from “Wu” circle and “Ou” even or double.

"Tai" is as big as the outside.

Therefore, Wùo Taï can be translated as "Between two circles" or "Between the Universe".


After meeting Nathalie, his wife, for the alchemy of her skills, they modeled his creation on a contemporary practice that is based on 64 main Gestures, inspired by the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching, combining philosophy, anatomy, embryology, and physiology of the body at the service of life.

Yoga Classes

Joyful meditative hatha

Thai-Yoga-class.jpg

In 2000 I've started to travel the world looking for all that I couldn't find at home. Yoga is been a constant path that I’ve experience everywhere I travel to: India, Bali, Mexico, Thailand, Australia, Sri Lanka, Ecuador, Reunion Island...have been my temporary schools.

In 2010 I took a 300 hrs YTT at Satyananda Yoga University in India.

Today I am excited to share all that I've keep in my backpack!

I facilitate eclectic Yoga classes, a blend of different styles depending on the people that are on the Yoga Shala. I never know what is going to happens before I start the class, as life is in the here & now. We all create the class!

Hatha Yoga, Pranayamas, Dance, Meditations, Partner yoga, Thai-Yoga and Nidra are mixed in this adventure that I adopt to all levels and needs.

My classes are centered in developing self body consciousness and releasing the muscular and mental tensions, this is my speciality from many years of experience as Thai-Yoga massage therapist. I believe that health is the capacity of adaptation and movement, that is what I am aiming to transmit.

Yin Yoga

come melt on the mat

Yin-Yoga-class.jpg

Yin yoga is a slow-paced style of Yoga with postures, or asanas, that are held for longer periods of time—for beginners, it may range from 45 seconds to two minutes; more advanced practitioners may stay in one asana for five minutes or more.

Yin yoga poses apply moderate stress to the connective tissues of the body—the tendons, fascia, and ligaments—with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. A more meditative approach to yoga, yin aims at cultivating awareness of inner silence, and bringing to light a universal, interconnecting quality.

Come to one of Eva´s classes and literally melt on the mat!

 Who we are?

Our Mission

EvaSion started back in 2013, when Eva’s teacher Itzhak Helman asked her to start teaching her own courses, as a way to expand the Thai Massage knowledge. Since then, It has evolved into a small collective of Thai Massage instructors, Yoga teachers, and outstanding individuals devoted to spreading the seeds of these ancient healing arts across the world and to inspire other people to follow their dreams.

We are aware that the world needs more consciousness and community values, more touch, more laughter, more compassion, more forgiveness..... These is what we aim to cultivate every time we gather in retreats and workshops, with the intention of sharing our Thai Massage & Yoga practice. We hold a safe space for your self exploration and the expression of your inner needs in a welcoming environment. We choose to do this in special venues that support the environment and their local communities and provide the perfect setting for such gathering.

We are activists for the world wellbeing

& you are welcomed to be a part of it!

Eva Sion

Founder of EvaSion Thai Yoga, Thai Massage and Yoga Teacher

OM MANI PADME HUM

I come from the mud. I reach towards the sky. In 2000 I had completed my university studies in Barcelona of Art History and I was looking outside of the mainstream “production - consumption” options to find and embrace my mission.

I became a full-time traveler and a passionate surfer. I lived in remote places such as Réunion Island, Madagascar, Sri Lanka, Lombok and Australia. Yoga came into my life as I felt the need to take better care of my body, find emotional stability and grounding. I got my first certificate as Personal Fitness Trainer in Sydney in 2007, specializing in yoga and surfing. I also got certified as a Spa therapist in Bali in 2008, and worked in luxury spas in France.

In 2009 I experienced my first Thai Massage course in Lahu village, northern Thailand. I discovered that this practice combined my passions of yoga, meditation, and bodywork in a selfless way. I became a devoted student and practitioner.

I fell deeper into my Yoga practice and took a Yoga Teacher training certificate in Satyananda Ashram in India in 2010, where I learned more about meditation and the holistic way of life.

Since 2013, following the advice of my dear teacher and mentor Itzhak Helman, I started to share my love for Thai Massage in workshops and retreats in places such as Spain, Mexico, Los Angeles, Bali, Morocco, Panama.... and created EvaSion Thai Yoga, a platform for collaboration with other highly talented individuals and communities that share my vision.

I am passionate to keep on learning more about Thai Massage, Yoga, and also about all the different disciplines that inspire me: contact improvisation dance, clown, Wùo Taï, modern yoga, functional movement, non-violent communication, mindfulness... and through both the muddy and crystal clear waters I am following the endless path of being curious about this wonderful adventure called life.


Elisabeth Green

Osteopath, Physiotherapist, Thai Massage & Yoga Teacher

Co-teacher in the UNDER THE SKIN retreat in Gran Canaria.

How do we heal from physical and emotional pain, injuries, trauma? How are they connected?

This question was my starting point for what turns out to be a lifelong inquiry into medicine and holistic health.

Coming from my own background of pain and trauma, learning how I can heal myself taught me more about how I can be best equipped to help others heal themselves. This is how it all started, then the path brought me to where I am now:

Elisabeth currently lives and works in Vienna, where she maintains her own treatment center, working as an Osteopath and Thai Massage Therapist, giving treatments and Yoga classes, devoting herself to everything related to holistic health and mindfulness. 

She first came into touch with Thai Massage in 2016 and this encounter forever changed her practice as a physiotherapist and yoga teacher. Feeling she found a holistic approach she was internally searching for, this practice brought together many aspects of healing she had previously dedicated herself to. She immediately felt the spark, the joy, the enthusiasm and started to dive deep into this ancient massage practice with her teachers Ithzak Helman, Pau Castellsague and Vangelis Varis as well as Krishnatakis Oekonomi, David Lutt and Felicity Joy. Meanwhile assisting some of them in their courses, and creating and sharing with others her own courses, giving many treatments in her everyday life, Thai Massage has become a beautiful and enriching part of her life ever since the first day.

Also in 2016, she started studying osteopathy in Vienna at the Wiener Schule für Osteopathie (Vienna School of Osteopathy), fulfilling her desire to gain as much knowledge as possible about the human body and approaching health from a scientific western perspective founded on anatomy and physiology. The philosophy and practice of osteopathy deeply influenced her practice and teachings throughout the last 5 years. In 2022 she will complete her studies in Vienna.

Other inspirations come from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Yoga, the sound of language, all kinds of movement, plants, and most of all the element of WATER: the ocean, waves, the rhythm of life.
