THIS IMMERSION IS FOR YOU IF:

  • You’re ready to work with the body, not just on it

  • You want to integrate meridian-based movement into your work

  • You’re craving time to reconnect to your own body and intuitive wisdom

  • You’re drawn to the subtle, the mysterious, and the power of presence

Why I Teach This

This work emerged over years of listening to bodies—my own and my clients’.

It brings together the technical and the intuitive: fascia-informed movement, Traditional Chinese Medicine, authentic expression, and subtle awareness. These tools have helped people move through pain, reconnect with joy, and find a way of practicing that’s more sustainable and more alive.

My goal isn’t to hand you a method to memorize. It’s to help you build a more responsive relationship—with your own body and with those you support.

This work is not about getting it right. It’s about getting closer to what’s true.

 FAQs

  • Yes—if you're a movement or wellness practitioner looking to deepen your skills while reconnecting with your body and intuition.

  • Not at all. Past participants have included yoga teachers, Pilates instructors, dancers, manual therapists, and bodyworkers. If you’re body-aware and curious, you’ll feel at home.

  • This training centers presence and responsiveness. You won’t just learn a set sequence—you’ll learn adapatable frameworks and build the skill of listening, so you can align what you know to what’s needed.

  • Because this training is limited to 10 people, I can’t offer refunds, but I’ll happily apply a credit toward a future training.

  • Yes, Yoga Alliance CECs are included. If you hold other credentials, let me know and I’ll provide supporting documentation for you to submit to your certifying organization.

  • Every part of this weekend is meant to be practical and adaptable—techniques you can begin using right away. You’ll also leave with a printed manual and be invited into my weekly practitioner roundtable, where you can continue integrating the work through practice and community.

  • You’ll leave with more than tools. You’ll leave with a renewed connection to your body, new clarity in your work, and ways to help your clients feel empowered between sessions. That’s value that continues long after the weekend ends. Also, I’m happy to offer a payment plan to make this experience financially accessible.

Student Reviews

  • "Kaita has crafted an intimate and tranquil retreat within its walls. The practitioner training provided me the opportunity to capture all of the juicy nuggets she’s been offering over the years. The invitation is consistent - to take the framework and use it as a starting point for exploration and tapping in to your own innate wisdom. I could prattle on about her gifts and graces as a teacher and guide, as a human, but I’ll get to the point. What I valued most was the opportunity to spend extended time with such inspiring, intelligent women, exploring the shared path of self discovery; to expound on ideas, share insights, discuss what unfolded for each of us, and find laughter and joy amongst it all."

    Immersion Student

  • "The opportunity to study, inquire, explore and experience the multiple layers of movement with Kaita is an absolute gift. With grace and ease, she opens a rich container that invites a deep listening and greater connection with body, mind and breath. The training offered a great overview of her method and allowed space to feel into the energetics and mechanics of opening up specific pathways. I left feeling re-inspired as a teacher, student and practitioner."

    Immersion Student

  • “I'm so happy I took this workshop. It was a well thought out presentation of Kaita's work in blending different healing modalities into one practice. It wasn't overwhelming or overly ambitious and I was grateful for the time spent in discussion- asking questions that led us down new paths, exploring alternate ways to target the body and hearing what others were experiencing. Kaita is a knowledgeable teacher, compassionate leader and has a beautiful offering for anyone willing to take the leap of faith into listening to the wisdom of their own body.”
