Meet somatic intimacy coach for women: Alice Jackson

How would you describe yourself in 3 words?

Kind, Curious, Playful

Tell us more about yourself and what you do…

I’m Alice, originally from the UK and living in beautiful Catalunya for the past 9 years – the sun, sea and mountains enticed me here! Happiest whilst surfing, dancing and being immersed in nature with my loved ones.

I’m a mother to an incredible little boy after a gruelling four year journey to conceive him which brought me to my knees many times.

For the past decade I’ve been teaching sensual yoga, meditation and mindfulness in London and Barcelona.

I now combine my embodiment work with helping high-achieving women who feel disconnected from their bodies come back into a place of trust, nourishment and pleasure with online 1:1 somatic intimacy coaching.

My coaching supports women who want deeply fulfilling intimate lives and relationships by expanding their access to pleasure, presence and trusting their authentic wants.

What services do you offer on Sensuali?

Somatic Intimacy Coaching, Sensual Yoga, Breathwork.

What turns you on?

Long, slow kisses. Being naked in the sunshine. Outdoor sex and the anticipation of it. Exhibitionism. Dirty talk – yum!

What was your journey into this world?

Since a young age I’ve been amazed at how much pleasure the body can experience.

When I began teaching yoga my style started to shift towards more sensual, slinky movements which women naturally resonated with.

As my work started to shift towards women’s circles and retreats I kept hearing similar stories of women feeling disconnected or disappointed in their bodies, relationships and intimacy.

What do the first 60 minutes of your day look like?

My mornings are slow, no alarms which I love but occasionally a screaming toddler haha. Mostly I wake up to smiles and kisses from my little one.

After a while of snuggling we roll out of bed, make breakfast – coffee or an Early Grey tea and toast for me then I breastfeed him whilst meditating in the sunshine.

Why do you do what you do?

Because women’s bodies and pleasure have been under patriarchal control for too damn long.

What is an unexpected pleasure you discovered in your work?

Just how life-changing this work can be for people. I can often take for granted the practises that I have become accustomed to, such as screaming into a pillow to release rage or putting on a sexy song to feel sensual.

When I share one of these practises with a woman who has been feeling stuck or struggling and it feels revolutionary for them I see how impactful this work is.

What should more people know about your work?

How when you work on your erotic energy it benefits every area of your life. You begin to show up to life differently when you feel grounded, relaxed and erotically vibrant – it’s incredibly exciting!

What’s your superpower?

Being able to withstand really devastating medical diagnoses and still thrive! When I was in my ttc journey I had to deal with blow after blow that affected how I saw myself as a woman. I heard some of the most devastating news a woman can hear when she wants to be a mother but I was able to rise again.

We love vices. What’s yours?

CHOCOLATE – my absolute number 1 vice in the world – preferably dark with a dash of salt.

Who are your sensual inspirations?

Mother nature and all her abundance – especially all the beautiful flowers she bestows on us and how she teaches us about the cycles of gestation, birth, life, death, decay on repeat.

Music. I love artists such as Yaima, Amanati, Black Coffee, Akua Naru and Tinashe.

Dancers/choreographers such as Parris Goebel, JoJo Gomez and Yannis Marshall.

Closing thoughts? Anything else to add?

This was so much fun, I loved these questions! This is why I love this work because just by you asking me about my turn ons I feel more turned on!
