Hi, I’m SJ — Founder of Sonni Side. With over a decade of experience in wellness, sports recovery, and movement, I've dedicated my work to helping people feel better in their bodies and connect to themselves. My foundation is in Thai Stretch Therapy and mobility based recovery, and I've worked with everyone from professional athletes to everyday people who carry stress, tension, pain, or simply feel disconnect4ed from their bodies.

​

My journey began after a college volleyball injury and recovery process that taught me something life-changing; healing isn't just physical - it's energetic, emotional, and deeply personal.  That chapter sparked an obsession with understanding the body, the nervous system, and the way movement, breath, and sound work together to create real transformation.

​

For two years, I owned and operated a wellness studio in Pacific Palisades that I lovingly built into a sanctuary for my community.  Although I had to close that space due to the devastating fires, it only deepened my commitment to bringing healing experiences to more people in meaningful ways - creating a new chapter root4ed in resilience, purpose, and expansion.

 

Alongside bodywork, I've always carried a deep love for music and frequency. Music has been one of the most powerful ways I channel energy, shift states, and create connection - and that's what led me to sound healing., Today, Sonni Side blends recovery and ritual through Thai Stretch Therapy, Breathwork, guided meditation, and sound bath immersions designed to regulate your nervous system, release stored tension, and restore clarity.

​

Sound baths remind us of the calm we used to know - the kind of calm that existed before the world taught our bodies to live in survival mode. Through these experiences, my intention is to help you return not balance, feel safe in your body again, and leave light, grounded, and more connected to your own energy.

​

It's good to feel it all.
