Fate brought me to Michelle’s site – an article in a magazine about Yoni massage, a blogger who had written about Michelle and then Michelle’s site itself. It seemed to me that it was all meant to be, however I was beyond terrified.

Being touched by others and even touching myself was deeply unpleasant. I had honed the practise of disassociation and convinced myself that touching me was repulsive to others. The time came where I knew I had to do something drastic. When you’re petrified of touch and trusting others, contacting someone to touch you seemed insane but I was in a corner and knew if I wanted to start fully living I needed her help.

I read Michelle’s site over and over again, ‘Mother wounds’ resonated with me and I innately knew Michelle would understand not only the sexual abuse but also the emotional abuse and significant ‘Mother wounds’ that ruled my life.

Paying for three sessions was a gamble but could I afford not to see her? I decided I couldn’t.

With Michelle’s quote in my mind of “All journeys in life require strong beginnings of courage, love, honour and trust” my journey began. It is a journey needing bravery( it certainly was for me) however if you 100% commit to following everything Michelle guides you to do, not only in the truly beautiful space she offers you but also her support and guidance in between sessions, the rewards will be truly magical. Already after only 4 sessions my life has changed dramatically. I was initially worried that the experience would seem sexual to me or my body would let me down again and not understand what it felt – in actuality nothing is further from the truth.

Your body and Michelle will talk between themselves in an awe inspiring way. I am not sure words have been created yet that succinctly describe what working with Michelle feels like so I would say take a risk, take a deep breath, drop her a line and press send. You and your body deserve Michelle’s guidance, her care and ultimately her healing touch.”

Kim West Sussex

“I have been seeing Michelle for about 4 months now. First, I did 6 sessions of sacred touch therapy and now I have started a mentorship with her because I love her qualities and the benefits of tantric therapy so much.

When I first met her, I felt at ease with her in an instant. Before I attended my first session I was terrified and thought I’d feel ashamed and exposed during the session, but as soon as I walked through her door and saw her warm and friendly face, these feelings of insecurity faded. Attending her sessions were simply pure joy and fun and the sacred touch sessions, well, they were the best massages I have ever had. I since then went once for a “normal” massage, and it just isn’t the same. Once you’ve tasted tantric massage you don’t want to go back. I feel that tantric massage has been one of the most healing and satisfying experiences for me. And with Michelle, you can feel she is coming from a pure heart intention, and she gives herself so fully, that there is a presence of energy during the sessions that is so satisfying to the soul but hard to describe in words. I felt so loved and appreciated and my whole being was being nurtured. I always felt quite blissed out and deeply rooted after each session, with an inability to engage in day to day conversation. I also realise that I generally talk less and feel more, since doing the sessions with Michelle.

I always look very much forward to Michelle’s sessions. Partly, due to the awesome human being she is as well as the gift of touch and wisdom she brings. I see Michelle as extremely kind, warm-hearted, joyful, optimistic and encouraging, always helping me to focus on the present moment. She knows that that’s where our point of power is and that focusing on unwanted thoughts and experiences is moving us away from what we truly desire.

Michelle has really helped me to begin to see myself as a beautiful, joyful being and to appreciate this unique body I am in. Since I have had the sessions, so many things in my life have changed. My life has become full and rich. My day to day experiences are somehow so much more pleasurable, I am able to see and feel the beauty in each moment. It’s like all feelings and sensations have been amplified. Everything’s more colourful, my vision is clearer, I laugh more, I have ripples of joy running through my body.

I especially enjoy the tool kit of tantric practices which I use on a daily basis, which are totally transforming the relationship I have with myself. I appreciate that Michelle taught me many valuable things, such as breathing techniques, self touch, meditations and yoni egg practice. Her focus has always been on teaching and moving me towards independence, to not rely on another for receiving pleasure, but rather to develop those qualities in myself and then share them with another person. I feel that by having given the “home play” my full attention I have gotten the most out of these sessions. i certainly believe that Michelle’s gift is extremely valuable to those who are ready to accept truly taking charge of their own lives, those with the desire to learn to put themselves and their bodies first and to accept their body as a satisfying place to be. I believe my ultimate goal in life is to be happy and Michelle has shown me that nobody can do this for me, no therapist, no mother, no lover, no partner. It is only me who can make it happen. Thank you, Michelle. “

“Following the end of a relationship, the commencement of the menopause and then the loss of my darling mum all within one year, I was feeling physically and emotionally starved and lifeless. I felt as though I wasn’t really living, just existing and whilst I knew this was no way to go on, I also knew that I needed some support to help me to reconnect with my sense of self. For this reason I contacted Michelle with whom I have now experienced 3 tantra massages, 2 body bliss workshops and I also participated in the truly delicious, yoni egg course.

Well what can I say? In unique and different ways these experiences have been deeply healing, transformative, freeing and nurturing. In just a few months I feel as though I have gone from being like a shell, a shadow, to becoming much more a fully sensual, sexual and vibrant woman. I have so much gratitude to Michelle for helping me on this journey and I feel that I once more step out with confidence, a smile on my face and a sparkle in my eyes.

Before I met Michelle I really had no idea what to expect, just a sense that this was the right path for me to be taking at this stage in my life and I would urge anyone with even the vaguest interest in tantra healing, to follow your heart and step in. With Michelle you will be in very safe and skilled hands. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Michelle 🙏”

“At the start of the year I was completely heart broken. I felt like I couldn’t tell anyone how distraught I really felt but I remembered Michelle, the kind lady who I had met at a yoga class and I got in touch. Thus began my healing tantric journey with her for six months. Michelle gave me a safe space where I could express exactly how I felt, which was such a relief. If I needed to cry I cried. If I needed to say nothing and just be massaged it was like she instinctively new and I felt no pressure to do otherwise. Michelle’s support truly was healing for me and it helped me navigate a very painful period of my life.”

JaneLondon

"I first began looking into tantric/yoni massage as a way of healing sexual trauma about a year ago. I had experienced sexual trauma as a child and then throughout my teen years fell into self destructive behaviour when it came to men. I entered emotionally abusive relationships and completely disconnected with my body.

Sex was painful, not pleasurable, and I was often triggered by touch. Sex was a chore for me that I felt I had to do.

I was naturally anxious and afraid to contact and reach out to Michelle but from the very beginning she understood that fear. She spoke to me on the phone and gave me all the power to decide if I trusted her. My fears were reassured and as soon as I met Michelle I felt at ease.

To experience entire touch of the body without it being sexual and to have it only be about me, me coming home to my body, and me reconnecting to my body in a way that was completely on my own terms. Even after the very first session I felt more confident and more relaxed.

When I got home I sat with my body and actually felt some flicker of connection to my yoni. I could hear her, for the first time ever. I felt her pain and was finally able to begin to release it. I had been focusing so much on therapy of the mind that I had neglected to remember the therapy that my body needed.

Michelle supported me and gave me advice, any question I had I knew it would be met without judgement and with answers full of wisdom. I have a long way to go until I am completely healed but meeting with Michelle and having my healing sessions with her have been the first real steps towards a place where I finally feel completely safe and connected.

I cannot thank Michelle enough for her support, she is not only a healer but a safe guide that is always there to hear your pain/success/happiness, whatever you want to share. It has been life changing!"

“Hi Michelle, I’ve been meaning to contact you for a while to share my good news. I have a lover, and we’ve been making wonderful, natural, pleasurable love and intimacy together for the past few months. I never considered that this wondrous joy was possible for me.
I really want to thank you for the help that you’ve given me to open myself up to an awareness of sensual pleasure much less shackled by conventional learning.

I give you my heartfelt thanks. You’re a wonderful person.”

GavinEast Sussex

“I was very nervous before my first session & not sure how safe I’d be but that all evaporated as soon as I met Michelle. Having survived sexual abuse in childhood & young adulthood, I’d always felt a sense of shame about my body & was unable to feel safe within it.

Michelle’s loving & accepting manner helped me to start to leave the past behind. During my yoni massage, she enabled me to feel safe, protected & accepted & I was able to allow painful emotions to be expressed & allow the shame that I’d held around sexuality & pleasure to drop away. I am now left with more of a sense of ownership around my own body, I feel safer within it & overall I feel lighter, more grounded & with a newly found sensitivity & sense of aliveness that I can’t remember ever feeling before. Thank you so much Michelle.”

JulesSussex

“Why did I book a session? Well, to be blunt, I have in the past felt like a slave to my libido. And hearing about the healing power of tantra, I investigated Michelle’s website. When I met Michelle, I was immediately impressed by her positive reassuring manner. The massage was at first very relaxing, with the sensation of hot oils on the skin being a very pleasant one. By the end of the massage I had melted and lost myself in Michelle’s touch. Since the massage, I have found a renewed energy and a calmness that was previously elusive. I have already booked another session, and would urge anyone who is considering tantra to not hesitate, as the experience will be one that will stay with you.”

SteveLondon

“That moment you realise that someone’s work needs to be experienced because you are struggling to put into words just how grateful you are for having had the chance to work with them….

This week I worked with the profoundly gentle and yet incredibly boundaried Michelle Roberton in the form of a sacred tantric massage. When I say boundaried, I simply see a reflection of someone in Michelle who works only from the deepest purity and heart of the calling of her work. My journey to full embodiment has been a long one and with the loving and expert guidance of Michelle – this week I felt myself viscerally and literally land back into my body. I had the sensation of giving birth to myself – my soul finally feeling safe to come into my womb centre.

I am sharing for two reasons…. firstly, because I believe this work to be beautiful, sacred and so utterly necessary for anyone who has ever felt any shame or disconnection from their body. It is time that every young girl, teen and woman knew that her body was a sacred and divine vessel. When you feel this and you know it, you understand that you cannot possibly treat it any other way. I am not excluding men, simply sharing from the experience of being a woman. Secondly, I am sharing because I didn’t undertake this work with Michelle lightly. I tend to carve out my own road for healing and empowerment. Yet I knew I wanted help and I knew that I would be held in an extraordinarily safe way. Coming into my body has been fraught with fear and trepidation for most of my life and so feeling safe and held was paramount.

Thank you Michelle Roberton for the gift that you are, and the heart, purity and integrity that you hold with your work”

NikkiBrighton

“I’ve had problems for a very long time, my body had completely shutdown. I had developed vaginasium following a very unhappy incident in my past at the hands of my first partner. I felt completely disconnected from my body, I felt great shame and incomplete as a woman. These feelings have heightened my anxiety and depression.

I have a great counsellor (who I have been seeing since 2014) who is helping me process my past. I needed help to reconnect to my body. To find and embrace the sexual being I could be, who I have never even contemplated I could be.

I feel that with my counsellor I am doing amazing healing of my mind and Michelle is doing amazing healing of my body and bringing my mind and body together again, as well as opening the door in my emotions that I had kept locked away – which I could then discuss with my counsellor. It’s working out incredibly well.

Michelle through her amazing skills and endless understanding has helped me begin my journey to reconnect with my body, femininity and power. I never expected to make such amazing progress in such a short while (a mere six Weeks).

The appointments with Michelle are so relaxing. She is fantastic to talk to and is always ready with advice to help.

I always feel very relaxed and positive after my appointments which helps my mental health, You also have home studies which help continue your healing process in the comfort of your own home.

I would absolutely recommend Michelle to anyone who has issues with intimacy. I feel that with the continued support of Michelle and my counsellor I have fully rounded support. I do feel strongly that both girls and boys as part of their sex education should be taught about the pleasures of sex and relationships as well as the pure mechanics. I wish I had know then what I am beginning to know now.”

HeatherEast Sussex

“Thank you so much for the beautiful treatment yesterday. I must admit that I was nervous walking into my first Tantric Massage experience however your professionalism and tenderness put me at complete ease. Everything you did was not only wonderfully sensual and relaxing but also made me aware of parts of my body that I had never considered before. After several attempts at a multitude of different therapies I can honestly say that Tantric and the way you have introduced it to me has by far had the most profound effect. I am so looking forward to continuing on this journey with you. Thank you again for introducing me to Tantric Massage and for re-introducing me to my body.”

KayleighBrighton

“Early this year, I was experiencing relationship issues. For some reason I was drawn to Michelle’s website and with no real understanding of what Tantra was or could do for me, I arranged an appointment. Arriving for my first appointment I felt nervous, apprehensive and curious of what I was doing and what difference Michelle and her Tantric teaching’s could make? (wow they have, but more of that later.) The first thing which struck me, was Michelle’s ability to put me at ease and her focus on listening to understand, to understand you as an individual and to understand how she can help you to help yourself, address and over come your individual challenges through Tantric touch and teachings. Michelle’s touch and massage is one of beauty and warmth which released sensations and feelings within me, the like of which I have never experienced before. Quite simply I felt at peace within myself. Michelle’s philosophy is to share Tantra and for you to experience its beauty and learn how to maintain that for yourself.

My first teaching’s have focused on how to breathe differently whilst focusing on key areas of my body, and for me, I have already experienced repeatedly the mind calming and body sensations which Michelle initially opened with her touch and understanding. I am still going through a time of great personal change. However through beginning to understand how Tantra can help and calm me, week by week, I am improving my being and understanding of myself.”

KelvinBrighton

“Time spent experiencing and learning with Michelle has been an absolute privilege. On first approaching this journey I was quite unsure what to expect, in terms of both the time with Michelle, and the broader effect on my life. In all honesty I was quite trepidatious about what awaited and how I would react.

Sufficed to say that, having now completed 6 sessions of my Tantric Initiation with Michelle, it is an experience that has been profound in an overwhelmingly positive manner. Michelle truly embodies benevolence, compassion, and the most visceral of sexual energies. The time spent with her and the teachings she has shared with me have been sensational, and the start of a transformational journey.

I am deeply grateful for having had the opportunity to partake in this sublime experience. Moreover, I am indebted to Michelle for her ceaseless kindness and compassion throughout. I have grown inwardly and outwardly during our time together, but moreover the tools she has shared with me present an enticing path to continue this adventure of discovery and empowerment as I continue to learn and grow.

From the depths of my being I can earnestly recommend that resources invested in shared experience with Michelle are well spent indeed. It may be exactly what you expect; it may show you things you never considered. Regardless it will throughout be a richly rewarding and nourishing experience that leaves you fuller of life and eager to develop further.

Thank you again Michelle for your care and understanding"

JasonWest Sussex

“Working with Michelle is quite simply the most restorative and progressive thing that I have done in my entire life. She has taught me a language that I didn’t think I could ever learn – the language of touch.

She has intuitive, forgiving, even magical hands! And she has used them to show my previously shame-laden and disconnected body how to receive pleasure, how to let that pleasure overflow and how to then share that pleasure intimately with another.

If, like me, you have lived your life with the handbrake on, feeling as if you should apologise for taking up the space you stand in, then Michelle is for you. She opens up a new way of living and she does so with great kindness and patience in sessions which go in whichever direction the language of touch dictates.

I have been welcomed into a state of bliss and then shown how to spend more time there. I can never thank her enough.”

DavidBrighton

My life has been transformed through the divine, sacred touch offered by Michelle.

Through my healing journey with her to become a multi orgasmic man I have experienced first hand the awakening that occurs coming back into union with my life-generating sexual force.
Her loving guidance has lead me to embrace my sexuality as part of my whole being, instead of holding it as separate from the rest of myself. As a result I have gained a lived experience infused with pleasure, connection, love and joyful wellbeing.

MatWakeham

Hi Michelle… Just wanted to send you a note to share that I love you and am so grateful.
In just those 3 sessions my whole ‘sexual’/sensual/erotic/passion/heart life was ‘moved’ and an inner transformation began. My outer world is beginning to ‘offer’ me experiences and opportunities to really nourish my ‘root/s’.

I am beginning to see the branches that can now grow, and maybe even beautiful flowers some day.

I can feel the work you did with me. The time you generously gave me and your wholehearted commitment to me, becoming, being, ‘seeing’ me, has made such a magical type of shift, that my life will never be the same again.

I am becoming more ‘wholesome’.

I wish to come see you again and I think my partner may come too. She is soooo open, that I can see now how exploration with no agendas or outcomes, is so powerful for couples and the individuals themselves.

Love and Peace to you Michelle.

TravisLondon

“Michelle’s calm, gentle teaching has helped me to stop seeing my body as the enemy, and to reintegrate my mind and body. The classes have been a joy to participate in and a highlight of my week.”

BrigitHove

“Taking part in Michelle’s yoga class was a really wonderful experience. I felt very safe and nurtured in Michelle’s presence. I really love the way that Michelle took extra special care to prepare the ground and getting the body comfortable before we even began. Giving very clear instructions and plenty of time to complete each guided move, I felt able to be fully in my body and totally present. The movements were gentle, yet very opening, so a really good combination. It felt very feminine, but in a way that I’m guessing could be satisfying for both genders, particularly people in virtually any kind of recovery, or wishing to explore more meditative states. Thank you Michelle, for a beautiful experience.”

StacyNewhaven

“Michelle is a long term tantra therapist and practitioner, whose experience was completely in keeping with the content of the course. her devotion to her healing practice is reflected very much in her yoga teaching practice. She is a genuine and loving person and teacher who is able to easily create a safe space for people to explore the inner journey of yoga. She continues to develop and learn and I think crucially, in this current yoga climate, is an honest appraiser of her own limitations. Everything she does comes from the heart and with absolute honesty. The feedback from her students, is, as I would expect, that they feel cherished, loved and safe. As Michelle intends to devote her yoga teaching practice to those living with cancer, I think there could be no better person set loose on the yoga teaching world right now!”

Jude MurraySenior Yoga Teacher & Founder of Yoga for People Living with Cancer..

“Dear Michelle, I wanted to write to explain to you how I felt after yesterday’s healing massage with you.. I was quite amazed at just how easy I found myself surrendering to your touch…and being able to be completely absorbed in the experience…feeling every stroke and allowing all other thoughts to disappear.

I have had huge hang ups since having my children with my tummy and all the stretch marks it gained…it was only 4 years ago that I I felt accepting enough of it to allow anyone else to see it….I still have times when I am insecure but that didn’t even enter my head with you…I also used to think that my yoni was perhaps not perfect as I have quite large labia, perhaps this was more due to an ex partner commenting about them, but I am slowly coming round to the belief that it is truely beautiful as it is, again not a thought about you seeing them was apparent.

I certainly felt an energy from you and cherished the heightened feelings all over my body, What you said about being able to use my sexual energy to be productive in other ways made sense, I am not sure in what way yet..but it would be amazing to be able to channel it. Any way I feel I could go on and on talking about everything but I will leave it there for now.. Thanks again.”

FlorenceEast Sussex

“The most astonishing thing about my journey so far with Michelle has been my willingness to trust her completely within minutes of meeting her. Not only that, but I also placed my body and spirit entirely in her hands and expressed my desire to listen, to learn and to accept her as my tantric guide at my very first visit. This says a lot more about Michelle than it does about me. I have found some of her guidance hard but have followed it to the letter in good faith in the belief that it is helping me to become a more open and aware person than I was before. The greatest compliment I can pay to Michelle is not for her intuitive guidance, nor her angelic sacred touch, nor her soothing divine caress, nor for her beautiful mind, nor for her profound advice, not even for her bewitching smile, but that a combination of all these things has completely changed my life.”

PeterBrighton

“I still have fond memories of my tantric experience and the positive after effect it had. In fact I was traveling to the US recently and have had 2 other tantric experiences but none have quite compared to the experience I had under Michelle’s care. While I feel my journey into the world of tantra is still in its early stages I found my session with Michelle to be one of the most powerful yet. Michelle made me feel comfortable and welcome, creating a safe environment for me to let go of my fears and anxieties which allowed me to absorb and enjoy the tantric experience. The after effect was profound. The energy and self awareness that I carried for days afterward was a very new experience. So addictive too! Michelle is a true master in her field and I am very much looking forward to working with her again.”

NeilDublin, Ireland

“This was my first experience of tantric massage and I have to say how truly wonderful it was. Michelle put me at ease straight away with her manner and was very understanding when I got a fit of nervous giggles at the beginning! The whole tantric experience was just wonderful. Time and place drifted away, and afterwards I felt light and energised. A beautiful experience.”

YvonneSurrey

“Michelle’s positive energy put me at ease and I felt confident and open enough to talk about anything and everything with her. The care and affection she showed me and advice and warmth she gave me, left me quite speechless and with a natural high feeling for days afterwards. I cannot recommend Michelle strongly enough.”

ScottBrighton

‘I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Michelle for being such a gentle, caring and inspiring guide on my tantric journey. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed from the moment I meet her. I have only had 3 sessions but I am already seeing the benefits. I have a better relationship with my body and my sexuality is reawakening in exciting and more true expression of who I am as a women. I can’t wait to see where my journey takes me.”

MichelleHove

“For as long as I can remember . I’ve always felt very confident in my own sexuality, and always felt empowered. Life changed when I met my ex (we were together for 16 years). I was rejected, and craved for intimacy. I had to suppress myself as I thought my libido was the cause of all my marriage problems. After my marriage break up I needed to reconnect. To feel that my heart and my sexual being were one… I did research for a while until I found Michelle. She is helping me to find the woman I was.. it is a long journey but I’m accomplishing faster then all those years of counselling. Thank you Michelle!!”

L.SBrighton

“After Michelle’s sensitive and nurturing tantric massage I felt so alive! My body felt it had let go of carrying a heavy load, it felt freer. Her Yoni massage left me feeling so much more love for this part of my body, she helped me see Yoni as a beautiful part of me that deserves nurturing and attention. I felt safe the whole way through the massage and being my first time doing anything thing like this it felt so natural and freeing.”

AnnaBrighton

"This kind of feminine awakening & connecting course is a must do for any type of woman.
Michelle and Katie ran theirs with sensitivity, grace and joy, yet it was full of power. After spending the last few years realising that my resistance towards women’s gatherings and femininity was actually more of a rejection of the way our society had been portraying these things, I have been slowly re-connecting with unknown parts of myself.

Despite being in a very loving relationship, I was not completely at ease with my sexuality, or enjoying sex as much as I knew was possible, Michelle and Katie’s guidance through their powerful techniques helped me to understand more deeply some of the reasons around this, and I’m definitely feeling more sensual! "

Kat

Hello Michelle

I have only managed to make time for a relatively small participation in the course (and look forward to it being there for me when I land again) but I am sure that small participation has been part of a wonderful period of recovery and growth in a therapeutic journey lasting 10 years I appreciate being held and guided through, on the surface, very simple, every day actions Yet, to know the power of them (and realise my previous resistance to them was connected to that power) The power to stop time and empower my own innate ability to love and heal It’s a gift that keeps returning Like, I imagine I’m in a hurry to get to my to do list, I shower, and then decide to spend an extra few minutes paying attention to my skin, or saying ‘thank you’ to my feet Knowing my body can tell a different story to the one it was conditioned to tell It is gold, real gold

With love and thanks

Sarah

Hello lovely Michelle

I found the course hugely beneficial, just after I started it my husband was diagnosed with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, so the practices gave me space for myself to come to terms with all the changes we were having to adjust to.

Then a month later he unexpectedly and very shockingly passed away…

I know that the strength and wisdom I got from your course and my own practices have helped me to cope and allow the sadness and grief to flow through me, enabling love and gratitude to build a firm foundation for the life that I now have to live without his physical presence.

Gifts come to us for a reason, so thank you.

Karen

“Taking part on the online course with Katie and Michelle revealed some new surprising, deep and significant revelations about my sensuality, which I wouldn’t have arrived at without the help of their heart based work. Thank you to you both, keep going with this enchanting heart and important work! All the best”

Janet

To learn any of the self care practices even if taken on for 5 minutes a day, has been a very worthy course. I especially appreciated your sensual self massage. Also I found it interesting as you said around having children, but showing them we can all have our own space and self time. I think this is really empowering for women, as we often hear practitioners and clients say they don’t have time or say ‘I understand you don’t have much time’ but here you were empowering women to take the time and that also stuck in my mind.
