who are SomanautZ ?

the original SomanautZ crew came together in the fertile womb of innovation in the Bay Area surrounding San Francisco. SomanautZ are radical bodyworkers pioneering the intersectionality of massage, conscious dance, contact improvisation, cathartic theater, prayerformance, holistic nutrition, transformative evolutionary culture, and an embodied lifestyle.

SomanautZ ended up more than just creating abundant loving platonic touch in our lives through advancing the field of massage – we created a lifestyle movement exemplifying how to make it easy and enjoyable to help each other take care of our bodies & beyond.

Structurally :

considering desired environmental conditions results in spatial ‘squish’ engineering : eg. if atmosphere is amenable to a temporary home base an embodiment encampment is erected from which exploratory forays are ventured; if aerial anchor points are present in native architecture suspension swings are rigged + weightless condition experts are on-hand to ensure native populations to the region engage safely with newly developed technologies.
