WAKE is a practitioner led wellness collective and shared use space in Philadelphia.

We are home to independent practitioners working across different modalities of somatics, movement, bodywork, ritual, reflection, and personal practice. Each practitioner brings their own training, perspective, and body of work into the studio, and that work is what shapes what WAKE has become.

The people doing the work are the ones who shape the space.

WAKE is not built around a fixed menu of services that are filled with practitioners. We begin with the practitioners themselves, what they are studying, practicing, noticing, and wanting to share.

That might take the form of one on one work, a recurring practice in The Nest, a workshop, a conversation, or something new.

The studio is meant to give gifted practitioners room to deepen their own work while also creating opportunities for that work to reach people in different ways.

There are two primary ways to experience WAKE.

Our practitioners offer one on one sessions through their individual practices, including acupuncture, bodywork, massage, somatic work, intuitive and energetic practices, and other forms of individual support.

The Nest is the shared side of the studio. It holds recurring practices, workshops, circles, gatherings, and events led by practitioners from within WAKE as well as people we invite into the space.

The offerings are different, but the intention is connected. We want there to be more than one way to engage with your own healing here.

The Nest is our shared practice and gathering space.

It gives practitioners a way to bring parts of their work into a group setting, and it gives our community access to practices that do not necessarily belong inside a traditional one on one appointment.

Some offerings return regularly. Others are seasonal, experimental, or happen only once.

The Nest is where a lot of the collective part of WAKE becomes visible.

Each of our individual practitioners sets their own pricing based on their work and offerings. You can learn more about each practitioner through their bio on our website and book with them directly from there.

For our recurring rituals in The Nest, we offer a single session, 3 pack, and 5 pack. Depending on the pack you choose, you will have anywhere from one month to six months to use your sessions.

We wanted the structure to make it easier to return to a practice without creating pressure to come more often than makes sense for you. The packs are there to give you some flexibility, while still leaving room for these practices to find their own rhythm in your life.

Start with what you are curious about.

If you are looking for one on one work, spend some time with our practitioner pages and get a sense of how each person works.

If you are interested in shared practice, workshops, or gatherings, look through what is happening in The Nest.

You do not need to understand the whole collective before you arrive. You can begin with one person, one practice, or one experience and see where it takes you.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows access to the arms, legs, torso, and back, or bring a change of clothes with you.

Depending on the kind of session you are booking, your practitioner may have additional instructions for you ahead of time. If they do, they will include that in your booking confirmation or reach out directly.

Wear something comfortable that you can move, sit, or lie down in.

We provide lightweight mats, bolsters, blocks, straps, and blankets, so you are welcome to use what is here or bring your own mat if you prefer.

We also have a water fountain in the studio, so bring a water bottle to fill while you are here.

Whether you are coming in for a one on one session or joining something in The Nest, we want you to feel comfortable speaking up about what you need, what you do not want, and anything that would help you participate more fully.

That might mean letting a practitioner know that you do not want a certain area of your body touched, asking for a modification, choosing not to participate in part of a practice, changing positions, taking a break, or asking questions before something begins.

We encourage you to have that conversation with your practitioner, teacher, or facilitator before the session starts, and to keep communicating if anything changes while you are here.

Your body and your participation are always your own.

Jane and Arketa are our two booking platforms.

For one on one appointments booked through Jane, we have a 48 hour cancellation policy. You can cancel through your Jane booking confirmation or contact your practitioner directly by email.

For recurring group practices in The Nest booked through Arketa, we have a 4 hour cancellation policy. You can cancel or adjust your reservation directly through Arketa.

Event bookings are nonrefundable, but your reservation can be transferred to a friend if you are no longer able to attend.

We know things come up, and we will always do our best to work with you when we can. These policies help us protect the time of our practitioners and teachers while also making space available to someone else when plans change.

For booking issues, schedule questions, or anything you are having trouble sorting out, email community@wakewellnesscollective.com.

WAKE is located at 1000 Buttonwood Street in Philadelphia, at 10th and Buttonwood.

Paid parking is available behind the building. If it is your first visit, we recommend arriving a little early so you have time to park, find the entrance, and get settled without rushing.

The Nest is on the second floor, and our one on one practitioner spaces are on the third floor.

Please note that you will need to use the stairs to access the studio.
