Ria Rucinska
Biography
Ria is a qualified Reiki master, remedial Pilates instructor, and professional dancer, with over 11 years of experience and a profound understanding of the mind-body connection.
Through her unique approach, Ria goes beyond conventional treatment modalities by integrating her diverse expertise into a comprehensive healing practice. She specialises in Body Mapping, a technique that seeks to uncover the underlying issues, emotions, and patterns that may hinder one's well-being.
Ria’s journey into healing began in 2010, motivated by her own experiences with chronic and acute injuries. While studying Contemporary Dance at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, where she graduated with First Class Honours, Ria embarked on her Reiki master training. Her dedication to understanding the body led her to further qualifications, including BASI’s Global Comprehensive Pilates Program. She has deepened her practice by training in Clinical Pilates with physiotherapists, as well as specialising in Pilates for the Older Client (BASI) and Ante-natal and Postnatal Pilates (APPI).
Ria’s training continued in Shamanic healing with XamAM Alba-Maria in the Atlantic forest, Brazil. Here, she delved deeper into her journey with movement healing, incorporating natural procedures such as clay, herbal infusions, and cold compresses, which also feature in her therapeutic offerings.
Under Sacred Motion, Ria works closely together with practitioner Mila Ribeiro, sharing a collaborative approach to supporting their shared clients' well-being. They maintain open communication, allowing for the creation of personalised and thorough treatment programs. This integrated approach ensures that clients are supported by a network of practitioners, rather than receiving individual, isolated treatments. By combining their skill sets, Ria and Mila have found that this collaborative method is the most effective path to well-being and recovery.
Ria’s aim is to support clients on their journey to physical and emotional well-being, providing treatments rooted in ancient wisdom and supported by modern science.
She is fully insured and a member of the Black African & Asian Therapy Network and the Complementary Therapists Association.

It was an exhilarating experience. The session with Ria was tailored to my needs, and I received holistic healing that unleashed worries and concerns I didn’t even know were still affecting me. My physical symptoms and emotional tiredness were both eased. I will be coming back for another in-depth session. Pri Maraj
I had an incredible healing session with Ria at Sacred Motion. Her warm, grounding energy put me at ease from the moment I arrived. The session was insightful and empowering, offering clarity I didn’t know I needed. The reiki was calming and transformative—I could feel energy shifting throughout my body. The clay wrap was the perfect, soothing finish. Ria’s intuitive gifts and nurturing presence created a safe space to truly reset. I left feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply reconnected. I will be back very soon. Thank you Ria Gemma Ryan
