My time here has deepened my yoga practice and rekindled the fire to share it again. Through countless classes, ocean breaths, and mountain mornings, I’ve found myself reorganizing both body and mind, slowly unwinding the tangles I’ve gathered over the years and remembering what it means to return home to myself.

This is what’s alive for me right now: studying, teaching, and honoring yoga not just as movement, but as lineage. Honoring our ancestors, our teachers, and yoga’s true roots back to Patañjali’s sutras.

I’m inspired to take my 300-hour training, deepening into the full scope of my healing work, from yoga to floor-based bodywork, grounding practices, and learning to bring the energy back down into the unwavering support of the earth.

Here’s to carrying these teachings forward with reverence and joy. 🌺🕊️

There’s something about firelight that speaks to me, the way it dances between worlds, the way it remembers...

My time on the islands has deepened my understanding of lineage in a way I couldn’t have imagined. Through ceremony, stillness, and over 20 classes at my favorite studio on island, I’ve reconnected to the roots of my own practice, the spiritual and embodied teachings that have carried me here.

This next chapter is about ancestral healing, not as a concept, but as a lived offering. It’s flowing through my yoga, my bodywork, my workshops, and the retreat spaces that are beginning to blossom.

It’s the essence of what I came here to remember.

My dad has been such a guiding light in all of this, his passing set me on an intentional healing journey that has now become my life’s devotion.

I’ll be announcing the first workshop soon, which I’m very excited about, a collaboration with a dear friend of mine… some of you absolutely know her! 🤫

This will be happening before the end of the year, and it will officially mark the beginning of this new chapter, one that bridges movement, meditation, and the work of my first book. Oh yeah, that too 😇

The torch has been passed and I’m ready to carry it forward. 🕯️

✨ Reintroduction ✨

Most of you already know me, but I’ve been feeling called to share where I am now and what’s unfolding.

The past year has been one of deep healing, much of it here in the islands. Maui has been a refuge for my body and spirit, and I recently ventured over to the Big Island - which was another powerful chapter in reconnecting with myself, the land, and my purpose. 🌋

I’ve closed my Ridgefield space, and while that season has ended, a new one is opening. My work is expanding in new directions:
– bodywork in the form of floor work and deeper somatic healing
– deepening my yoga practice and education
– developing workshops (with retreats on the horizon 😉🌺)

One of the threads weaving it all together is Lineage. Honoring where we come from. Connecting with ancestors. Generational healing. Embodiment. Transmutation. This is not just a theme for me… it’s my soul’s purpose. It’s a way I honor my Dad and grandparents who have passed on, and the imperfect yet beautiful love of my family that shaped me.

You’ll be seeing more of this here: through yoga, through ceremony, through offerings I’ll be sharing. Thank you for walking this path with me. ✨

With reverence,
Sammie-Jo ☀️

As we enter Virgo season, it’s time for me to root some intentions I’ve had for this page for a while now. I want to move away from solely massage content and branch out into other forms of healing, artwork and sharing on here. Ironically this was how this page originally started, so back to our roots we go.

Honoring and feeling into everything during these last few weeks of August, the start of one of my favorite seasons of the zodiac. Gauging my internal compass as to what projects and dreams of mine I’d like to pour into as the fall and winter months approach. And where 😇

I like to think about spring and summer as times of inspiration and action and fall and winter as times to intentionally plant seeds, to tend them, get cozy with them, in full trust that what’s meant to blossom, will in time, even if we rest. Especially when we rest.

What seeds are you planting in your life right now?

Not only am I alive you guys…
I’m thriving 💛

Still in my healing bubble & taking some time off but I wanted to give you an update and just say that how deeply I’ve been pouring into myself over the past month has refilled my cup in ways I never really imagined.

I’ll be back very soon.

All my love always,
☀️

The most beautiful sunset I’ve ever seen—painted across the sky the night before I turned 28. I remember standing there in complete stillness, as if the universe itself was offering me a gift.

Now she lives on this canvas in my Ridgefield office, a quiet reminder that even endings glow with grace… and that something breathtaking always comes with a new beginning. 🌅✨

Ridgefield, a hui ho! I’ll be back 💛

That beauty is born through softness.
That healing begins not in force, but in surrender.

The heart chakra, Anahata, whispers through every gentle touch:
“You are safe here. You can exhale now.”

This is the essence of bodywork—
Not just muscles meeting pressure,
but soul meeting safety.
A sacred return to the wisdom of breath,
the rhythm of rest,
the memory of being whole.

In each massage, in every still moment, we remember:
The heart is not just a vessel.
It’s a compass.
And when we follow it—
we find ourselves.

Mini Heart-Opening Ritual
Place your hand on your chest.
Feel your heartbeat beneath your palm.
Breathe in: “I soften into love.”
Breathe out: “I let love soften me.”

Repeat 3 times, or until you remember who you really are.

It’s okay to make peace with the past – even with the versions of yourself that you don’t always love. You don’t have to carry the weight of guilt and shame forever.

We’re all made up of pieces from every chapter, every lesson, every mistake. Those versions of you were just trying to survive, to make sense of the chaos. You don’t have to be at war with your own story.

Release the need to control what’s already done. Let go of the burden of regret. It’s time to forgive yourself, to honor the growth that came from the pain, and to move forward with love and compassion.

You deserve peace. You deserve freedom from the past. Let yourself be whole again.

Samantha-Jo doesn’t just walk through life—she listens to it. She feels its tremors beneath her feet before others even sense a shift in the wind. A born intuitive, she carries a rare ability to feel both the weight of the world and the whisper of something beyond it.

Her presence is both grounding and electric—like bare feet in red clay, like thunder in a clear sky. She is fiercely tender, disarmingly perceptive, and sharp enough to cut through pretense with a single glance. She’s a seeker, a healer, and a builder—not of empires, but of sanctuaries. Sanctuaries for the body, the spirit, and the truth.

Samantha-Jo creates space wherever she goes. Space to breathe. To remember. To unravel and re-form. She’s not afraid to speak from the ache, to start over, to choose something better even when it means walking away from what’s familiar. Her work isn’t just massage—it’s medicine. Her love isn’t just soft—it’s sacred.

She is not the sum of what she’s endured. She is the force that transmuted it.

And this—this is the story of the woman who chose to live wide awake, even when it hurt. Especially when it hurt.

Atop Haleakalā, where silence speaks in light.
It’s there my spirit learned to soften,
To listen,
To touch not just the body,
but the grief, the joy, the story beneath.

Now in Ridgefield, I bring that medicine forward—
each massage a breath of the mountain,
each session a remembering.
You may be far from Maui,
but the healing is never far from you. 💚

She heals like the sea—
not with force, but with rhythm.
Each wave she sends is a whisper
of everything she’s survived.

With hands warmed by sunshine,
she traces the lines of sorrow,
not to erase them,
but to honor where love once lived.

The ocean knows her name—
it hums it in tides and swells,
recognizing the weight she carries
beneath that golden skin.

She’s no stranger to ache.
Her heart’s been pierced by absence,
yet it beats louder now,
a drum for those still finding their way.

Flowers bloom in her wake—
not just petals, but medicine.
Lavender for rest.
Hibiscus for courage.
Plumeria for the joy she still dares to believe in.

Her words are sharp when they need to be,
like coral beneath a serene surface—
not to wound,
but to warn:
do not tread here with falsehood.

She is truth without cruelty,
fire without destruction,
a leader forged in love,
not ego.

When she places her hands on another,
it is not just touch—
it is memory,
it is prayer,
it is the echo of every ancestor
who ever taught her to rise
with grace,
with grit,
with integrity.

And so she walks—
barefoot, honest,
a beam of light softened by clouds,
and stronger for it.

She is the heart.
She is the hands.
She is the healing.

And she is just getting started.

Through eclipse shadows and Aries flames, I’ve been cracked all the way open. This season is for blooming brave—trusting the timing, honoring my healing, and moving toward the life I dream of with aloha at my back and worthiness in my bones. The old version of me gave me roots.

This one? She’s learning to fly.

“Hoʻomanawanui—be patient, be brave. The unfolding is sacred.”
