Calm Folke Therapies

✨ Happy Saturday everyone! ✨

I wanted to pop on here to announce some schedule updates for end of September and into October.

Normally, my massage and 1:1 working days are Sunday-Wednesday, but I’ve got some changes coming up including:

- Friday 25th September is available
- Saturday afternoons are available (for the foreseeable)
- 3rd-7th October is unavailable- I’ll be away in Portugal! 🇵🇹 ☺️

If you have any questions, feel free to message or pop it in the comments 👇

✨ Upcoming workshop ✨

I’ve been sitting on this idea for awhile and excited to announce this workshop which will be held on Saturday 10th October from 12:30-1:30pm VWell Studio

So what’s it all about? Drawing from my experience as a Massage Therapist (and from my lived experience) I know that stress isn’t something that’s just held in the mind, but shows up in the body too! This workshop is designed to explore tension- being curious to what we notice and addressing tension through relaxation techniques, myo fascial release, and yin yoga.

If you’re someone whose body feels tense after a stressful time- this one is for you!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who came to my outdoor yoga classes this summer!

This was the first season I taught yoga outside and there were definitely some learning curves when teaching in an outdoor, public space 😆

BUT, it was so much fun and I can’t wait to do it again next year. In the meantime, you can catch me indoors as we head into my favourite season ✌️ 🍂

I’ve recently been re-evaluating my relationship with social media in terms of my business.

Early on when I launched, it was a great way for me to spread awareness and say, “hey I’m here!!”. Then over time I feel like I got a little lost - focusing on the number of views, the algorithm, strategy, refining my words so they were “perfect”, and posting multiple times a week. Needless to say, it’s exhausting.

I recently started to take a step back and think, what do I want from social media in terms of my business? It’s not to get a lot of followers or views. Instead it’s to build trust, show people what I do, and keep connected.

So with that in mind, I’m probably not gonna create posts as consistently as before, and will probably be a lot more messy. I’ll still pop on my stories so you can see what I get up to, but I’m making a more concerted effort to be present and not fixated on the social media hamster wheel.

So if you’ve gotten all the way to the end of this caption, well done and thank you for listening to my Ted talk 😆

With love,
❤️ Alyssa

Giving massages and teaching yoga can be a physically demanding job and here are some of the things I do to keep my body feeling its best ✨

✨ Last Outdoor Yoga Sessions for Summer 2026 ✨

Now that we are settling into August, I’m updating my outdoor yoga schedule to start scaling back and preparing for what’s next.

Tuesday evening yoga has now finished and we have just 3 remaining Saturday morning flow sessions, so if you’ve been quietly thinking about joining- now is the time ☺️

Don’t worry though, you can still catch me indoors at VWell on Saturdays at 10:30am
