"Flexible Mind ⇄ Flexible Body"
The Importance of Flexibility. Not Just in the Body. Flexibility in our mind, spirit, and life is very important. I believe in the power of flexibility in our lives, and it forms the foundation of my massage philosophy. Staying flexible is the key to healthy longevity. There are many ways to keep our bodies flexible, and massage is one of them. As we create more space in the body, we also become more mentally open.
Going with the flow is the ability to live life freely and happily, not trying too hard or constantly changing things, but letting them be.
There are many benefits for going with the flow. It can make life easier on you.

~ Staying flexible and go with the flow ~
In 2015, I left my job and embarked on a journey to Chiang Mai, Thailand. My main goals was simply relaxation and practicing yoga. There weren't any fancy plans. It was just like..."let's go and see what happens!". At the time, I was deeply passionate about fitness and yoga, holding certifications as a yoga instructor and fitness trainer. YES!! I was interested in the human body. I was so active and full of energy.(I'm still...!) During my time in Thailand, I was very immersed in yoga that I practiced twice a day. It was during this period that I became interested in massage and it turned out my yoga teacher, Freddie, also was a massage therapist (who has had a significant impact on my massage life). Over an extended period, I learned a lot about massage techniques, philosophy, and mindset through him beyond what I could learn in massage courses. Learning massage was challenging and stressful to be honest, but he also dedicated his time every day to teach me and I couldn’t give up! My days were filled with yoga and massage. I practiced the massage techniques I learned on my yoga classmates every day, receiving feedback, which helped me improve quickly. My passion for massage didn't stop when I returned to Korea. The desire to improve and learn more and more about massage kept me traveling between Korea and Thailand for a few years. Currently, I am sharing love through massage in Australia since 2019.
