Welcome to In Our Hands School - an place for learning to use our hands to feel well, happy, and at home in our selves. The tools I offer come from the traditions of 5 Element Acupressure and more, rooted in the principle of that we can make gentle action and facilitate profound change toward harmony.
These classes are for everyone. Professional bodyworkers and first-time curiosers to manual work, be welcome. Any age, any body, be welcome.
May these tools bring you peace.
with love,
Willa Mamet
"Willa is one of the most clear and concise teachers I’ve learned with.
They have an ability to explain concepts, anatomy and techniques in a way that is approachable and succinct.
When I’ve had questions arise as Willa is teaching, they respond with clarity, curiosity and care- all of which put me at ease as a student and make me feel welcomed to be my whole self as I am learning."

Hi, I’m Willa.
Will works, too.
I use all pronouns used in kindness.
Bodyworker, teacher, writer, and musician.
Word nerd. Anatomy geek. Yay plants.
I'm in love with with Five Element Acupressure and Jin Shin Jyutsu. My practice and classroom also include tools from studies of shiatsu, tui na, craniosacral work, abdominal massage, scar tissue work, and breast + chest care.
I've made this site for those of you who want to learn these simple, profound tools for yourself, either on their own or to amplify the bodywork we do together.
Lovely to make your e-quaintance.
