ABOUT THE PORTAL
A private practice for bodywork and embodied awareness.
The Portal Amsterdam is a private, discreet practice in the historic centre of the city.
It was created as a space for focused bodywork, attention and embodied presence —
away from distraction, performance and urgency.
Sessions take place by appointment only and are held within a calm, contained environment that supports depth, safety and continuity.
FLOOR
Floor works with the body as an active participant rather than an object to be treated.
Her work is grounded in attentive presence, direct physical guidance and the development of awareness in the body.
Rather than applying fixed techniques, she works with what becomes visible through attention: patterns of holding, avoidance and effort that are often maintained unconsciously.
Change is approached as a process of increased choice and responsibility.
Sessions invite active participation and a willingness to engage with sensation, rather than seeking relaxation or symptom relief alone.
Floor’s work is informed by years of hands-on experience in bodywork and somatic practice, and continues to evolve through practice, supervision and ongoing study.
Floor collaborates with selected practitioners whose work aligns with the values of presence, integrity and embodied awareness.
For questions or to explore whether a session is appropriate, you are welcome to get in touch.
More information about Floor’s individual work and longer-term trajectories can be found on her personal website.
