Purpose

A place to share, learn and heal

Red Doors Studio is a place for the community to come together to share, learn and heal, using tools and techniques that span sound, meditation and bodywork.

We don’t stay behind our doors, either. We work with schools, non-profits, special interest groups, wellness circuits and corporates in the community.

The name

Why ‘Red Doors’?

A door, a question and a colour. Each one says something about what happens inside.

1The door

New beginnings

Doors stand for new beginnings, discoveries, opportunities and curiosity. When we open a door, we choose to explore, and to grow as individuals.

2The question

A door with a mouth in it asks

The Chinese character for door, 門, combined with mouth, 口, makes 問: to ask, or a question. At Red Doors we help you find your answers by looking within and tapping into your intuition and inner self. When we fully understand ourselves, we can make conscious choices.

3The colour

Red, for luck and for roots

In many cultures red is the colour of luck. It is also the colour of the root chakra, Muladhara, the foundation of self-awareness. And red belongs to Ganesha, the elephant-headed god who removes obstacles.

Why choose Red Doors

Ancient practices, for the here and now

Being connected 24/7 to a constant barrage of information leads to physical and mental exhaustion we may not even notice. When our minds are overactive, we make decisions from a place of reactivity rather than rationality.

Most of us want a sustainable kind of productivity, positivity and wellbeing, and we want it quickly, with little effort. Our philosophy is to offer effective, holistic answers by bringing time-tested ancient practices into the here and now.

  1. 1Centre

    Come back to the body, the breath and the present moment.

  2. 2Heal

    Sound, meditation and bodywork, given the time and space to work.

  3. 3Uplift

    Leave lighter, clearer and ready to choose, not react.

Comprehensive, accessible, deep, light, fun, universal, wise, intense, happy journeys are guaranteed here. The truest expression of teaching, healing and laughing I have found in one place in a very long time. A rare gem on planet Earth… and probably beyond.
