What it's about
Woven Wisdom is a four-day immersive training with Alejandra Ruiz from Mexico and Oliver Chamorro from Spain. It brings together two ancestral cloth traditions, the Mexican rebozo and the Thai pha khao ma, and explores their dialogue with the principles of OsteoThai, treating the cloth as a bridge between movement, touch, fascia and the nervous system.
Participants learn rebozo and pha khao ma techniques and how to use the cloth as an extension of the hands to support, apply traction, suspend, mobilise and rock the body. The work addresses fascia, movement, breath and the nervous system, the spine, pelvis, shoulders, hips and the whole body, as well as proprioception, regulation and embodied awareness. A central image is the relationship between the inner textile of the body's fascia and the outer textile of the cloth.
The training suits people who want to integrate cloth into their bodywork, Thai massage, OsteoThai, yoga or somatic practice. It takes place from 6 to 9 May 2027 at The Humbled Body Studio, 1450 E 6th Street, Los Angeles, daily from 9:00 to 17:30 with a lunch break, 30 hours in total. An early-bird rate applies when booking with a deposit at least one month ahead.
