Land Acknowledgment
The uncomfortable truth is that the lands where we live, work, and play were created through the forced removal of Indigenous peoples from their traditional homelands. These peoples have lived here since time immemorial, and their descendants are still here, maintaining cultural and spiritual connections to the land. The land I practice on was originally the home of many tribes that currently fall under the umbrella of Coast Salish. For more about Land Acknowledgement and why it matters, please see my Resources page.
Who is the
KOLETO WELLNESS GROUP?
The Koleto Wellness Group is a growing wellness project, founded by Katrina Koleto, LMT.
Our mission statement is:
To help our fellow humans achieve greater levels of total wellness through massage, movement, meditation, and more.
But Katrina is just one person, so who else is part of the Koleto Wellness Group?
YOU are!
I could not do this amazing work without my clients doing their own work.
Each client brings to the table their willingness to care for their own body, and the support and teachings of countless people before me.
In addition to that, the Koleto Wellness Group couldn't exist without countless teachers, mentors, sages, guides, ancestors, and loving community members.
Although I am one person, my work is a manifestation of the energy of many.
