“We tried giving and receiving 3 types of massage under Sevanti’s excellent teaching. This was my first time learning holistic massage and I found it both rewarding and enjoyable. I learned how to massage with confidence and enjoyed the three types of massage as a receiver…
From the moment I stepped into the studio, I knew I was in the presence of a brilliant teacher. Sevanti’s teaching style was engaging, nurturing, and filled with compassion.” Patrick, 2023

Course tutor
Sevanti has developed the Holistic Massage Diploma (MTI) from many years of experience and research.
The course is delivered in small groups of up to 10, allowing for highly personalised guidance and tailored support for each student. It is fully accessible and open to all, with sliding-scale pricing available, just ask for more details.
The HMD course looks deeply at somatic healing, therapeutic practice for trauma and chronic stress, focussing on relational skills, such as co-transference, professionalism and marketing. There is additional support into work for all students with the post grad career path at Unity.
In addition to to running this diploma, she is also the Founder and Director of Unity. Immediately after completing her BA (Hons) Degree in Dance Theatre at the Laban Centre, London, Sevanti certified as an Integral Yoga Teacher and a massage practitioner.
In 1998 Sevanti established her practice of Yoga (and massage & healing), naming it ‘Unity’. Since then Unity has expanded to become a Training School, where she has lovingly created her own Yoga Teacher Training Diploma (YTT) and Holistic Massage (MTI) Diploma since 2000/02. She has also established courses in Unity Partner Yoga™ Teacher Training (previously IYN, now YTT) and Reiki 1-3 (Embody).
Formerly based at a studio in Brighton, in 2019, Sevanti undertook an extensive and painstaking restoration of a heritage Turkish bathhouse in Friar’s Walk, Lewes.
This was opened in September 2019 as The Unity Centre; a landmark spa and studio offering floatation therapy, an infra red sauna, massage therapies, classes and workshops in yoga, pilates and much more.
