✨Introduction to Yoga Workshop at The Hive in Windsor Locks! Wednesday, 9/30 at 5:15pm - $50 -Includes the workshop and one week of unlimited classes! ✨

✨Have you wanted to try yoga…but feel like you can’t?
✨Maybe you’re not flexible. Maybe you don’t know the poses. ✨Maybe the idea of walking into a yoga class when everyone else seems to know what they’re doing feels intimidating.

This workshop is for you.

Join Julie for our Intro to Yoga Workshop, where we’ll slow everything down and teach you the basics—poses, modifications, props, terminology, and how to make yoga work for your body.
And then comes the best part: after the workshop, you’ll receive ONE WEEK of unlimited classes at The Hive so you can practice what you learned and build your confidence.

No experience. No flexibility required. No need to “be good at yoga.”

✨Come knowing nothing. Leave knowing you can do this.
Wednesday, September 30 | 5:15–8 PM

✨ We are so excited to welcome Diana Zapata, LMT & Esthetician, to The Hive ✨

And trust us when we say… this is not your typical massage or facial.

Diana brings an entirely new kind of self-care experience to The Hive. One that blends ther**eutic bodywork, advanced skincare, holistic practices, and deeply intentional touch to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and simply receive.

Her philosophy fits so beautifully with everything we believe at The Hive. Self-care isn't about changing yourself. It's about taking care of the woman who is already there.

Diana's menu of massage, skin, and body rituals includes:

✨ Deep Pore Facial — a 90-minute facial designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate, and restore your skin's natural glow.
✨ Mahalo — so much more than a facial. This restorative ritual combines advanced botanical skincare with Gua Sha, aromatherapy, intentional touch, and breath for an experience designed to nurture both your skin and your nervous system.
✨ Deep Gua Sha — ther**eutic Gua Sha bodywork using intentional strokes to encourage circulation, release tension, and leave you feeling grounded, open, and restored.
✨ Lymphatic Drainage Massage — gentle, rhythmic bodywork designed to support healthy lymphatic flow and circulation while helping the body feel lighter, less puffy, and deeply relaxed.
✨ Thai Fusion — a beautiful combination of Thai-inspired assisted stretching, myofascial bodywork, and mindful movement. This one is especially wonderful for women who do Pilates, yoga, strength training, lift, or simply carry a lot of tension in their bodies.

Warm towels. Aromatherapy. Botanicals. Gua Sha. Infrared heat. Intentional touch.

✨ These aren't appointments you squeeze into your day.
They're an invitation to stop taking care of everyone and everything else for a little while and let someone take care of you.
Come meet Diana and discover what your new version of self-care might look like at The Hive. 🤍

✨ We’re Hiring: Massage Therapist at The Hive in Windsor Locks ✨
✨The Hive is growing, and we’re looking for a massage therapist who wants to be part of something more intentional than a typical spa or clinic.
✨The Hive is a wellness space built around safety, nervous system awareness, and genuine connection. This is not a high-turnover, volume-based environment. It’s a space where the way you hold clients matters just as much as the techniques you use.
✨We’re looking for someone who:
• Feels grounded and emotionally safe to be around
• Is deeply attuned to their clients, not just performing a service
• Has strong clinical skill and takes pride in their craft
• Values being part of a supportive, collaborative environment
• Is interested in working with women navigating stress, trauma, and healing
✨This is a beautiful opportunity for the right person to grow within a space that is expanding and deeply valued by its community.
If this feels like you, we’d love to hear from you.

Let us know you are interested here: https://forms.gle/1uG8AF2FQhLr7Bo59

✨ A Deeply Restorative Evening at The Hive ✨ Tuesday, March 31st 6-7pm - $55

✨ Imagine settling into a gentle restorative yoga pose, fully supported by blankets and bolsters, while skilled hands offer ther**eutic massage and calming Reiki energy work to help your body soften and release.

✨ During this special one-hour experience, you will be guided through a series of slow, supported restorative yoga poses designed to quiet the mind and allow the nervous system to settle. As you rest in each pose, participants will receive hands-on massage on different areas of the body along with Reiki energy work, creating a deeply relaxing and layered healing experience.

✨ This is not a typical yoga class. It is designed as a nurturing, full-body reset to help melt tension, calm your system, and leave you feeling grounded and restored.

✨ The evening will be led by Julie Gelsomino, a 500-hour registered yoga teacher and Reiki Level II practitioner, alongside Nancy Nicholson, licensed massage therapist. Together they will move through the room offering supportive touch and energy work while you rest in each pose.

• Tuesday, March 31
• 6–7 pm
• The Hive Women’s Empowerment Center
• $55 per person

✨ Because massage and Reiki are offered throughout the class, spaces are limited so each participant can receive individual attention.
✨ Come as you are and leave feeling relaxed, supported, and renewed.
