Mother’s Day massage workshop in Lisbon for anyone who wants to give their mum something genuinely different this year: a 90-minute session where she learns how to give and mostly receive a proper massage. Held at One Leaf in Lisbon and led by Sara Di Rocco, this hands-on workshop teaches a practical 30-minute routine inspired by Shiatsu and Ayurvedic Yoga Massage, two Eastern healing traditions focused on energy meridians, vital points and mindful pressure. You leave with a complete home-friendly routine that needs nothing more than a floor mat to practice.<\/p>\n
The session moves through the full massage sequence step by step, covering proper body mechanics and posture for safe massaging, correct hand positioning and pressure control, how to locate and relieve key tension areas, and the healing principles behind each movement. Participants practice in pairs throughout, giving and receiving the massage while Sara provides guidance and personalised feedback to improve comfort, technique and connection. The approach is grounded and accessible, designed for complete beginners with no professional tables or complex training required.<\/p>\n

I am Sara Di Rocco and alongside my sourdough, kimchi, bone broth, tea blending, tea meditation, pasta and pizza workshops, this is something a little different: a session about connection, touch and the particular kind of care that comes from learning to be present with another person. One Leaf is a beautiful and calm space in Lisbon that makes the experience feel exactly as it should on a day like this.<\/p>\n
Minimum 2 participants. Two tickets must be purchased for the workshop to be confirmed.
