Asher is a contemporary dance artist and an agent of social change. Her adoration for movement, touch and the natural power to self heal incites her Zenthai practice built on her deep experiential knowledge of the body, connection and organic movement pathways. She speaks to the energetic body through her very physical, kinaesthetic offering; strong with soft edges, deep with complete listening and presence.
Living a low impact, natural, environmentally conscious lifestyle herself, she is dedicated to seeing people through their deep-dive into healing, surfacing into long-term, abundant wellness within all parts of their lives, rippling out beyond themselves to contribute positively to all.
WHERE CAN I FIND ASHER?
Based by the ocean where the waves are gentle, Asher treats on the Gold Coast out of the kangaroo-filled Currumbin Ecovillage alongside her partner, Ché Pritchard. They co-teach Level 1’s, workshops and refreshers as well as the Therapist training course from Kirra beach so connect if you would like to stay up to date with their offerings.
Available for events, retreats and festivals.

ASHER SAYS…
“I am grateful for the wind that blew me into the lap of this modality. Having been a dancer my whole life; interacting with the world through movement and form; to find a fresh way to dance with the bodies and energies of others is completely magic. To be of service with nothing but a set of empty hands gives me a profound sense of belonging in this world. I am in awe of every person who lays on my mat ~ dedicating time to themselves, offering their body in complete trust.
The inspiring force behind my actions is to help bring people back to living their true values in nourished able bodies, realising and embodying their oneness. Zenthai made such beautiful sense after having spent years investigating my own body and it’s many forms and pathways, and teaching others how to access freedom and health through movement. Educating on environmental awareness, conscious consumerism and low impact living is a way I contribute to our collective re-education, and practising bodywork makes me feel like I am tapping into a deeper conversation on consciousness where the receiver finds their own clearer path to these thoughts. “
Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu
“May all beings be happy and free and may my thoughts, words and actions of my own life contribute in some way to the happiness and freedom of all”
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:
“Asher’s energy is immediately healing and calming. Before the session has even begun, I feel a shift in intention and presence that gets me in tune with my bodies sensitivities and the sacred space we both share. Each session is personally designed for your needs. I am always left feeling deeply cared for and satisfied in both body and soul. It is always a very sacred experience.”
— Bella H ~ Contemporary Dancer
“Asher is an incredible bodyworker. Feeling the way she navigated my body, made me feel how much awareness she holds in her own body. I felt so safe in her hands because I could feel this is more than just a job to her, it is her calling.”
— David B ~ Zenthai Therapist
“I’ve never trusted any bodywork practitioner as much as I trust Asher. She has thorough and integrated knowledge of the anitonitomical body, as well as well as a keen intuition and connection with the energy body. Every time I have felt totally safe, taken care of, and leave with not only physical relief but deeper connection with myself too. She will modify her practise to your needs, listen deeply and help integrate and translate what is happening within your body. If you are thinking of booking with Asher I am so excited for you and the healing you will find in her hands.”
— Kalya TD ~ Bodyworker, Conscious Food Chef
“Asher offers Zenthai masterfully and intuitively in a safe and caring environment. Her treatments provide respite, an opportunity for relaxation, the movement of energy and a return to wellness in the body and beyond through sound, touch, breath, presence and care. Her focused massage soothes in a physical, dance-like flow for the body, mind and soul before easing you gently home into the temple of your body.”
