Carmen Doing Tahi Yoga Massage

Carmen Som is the heart, hands, and visionary behind HumbleBee Collective and Bee Motion Studio.

With over a decade of experience in massage therapy and bodywork, Carmen has created a sanctuary in Wenatchee, WA where holistic healing, movement, and self-empowerment come together in deeply therapeutic ways.

Carmen believes in the body’s innate intelligence and the power of presence. She built Bee Motion Studio (literally—with her own two hands!) to be a home for movement, community, and reconnection.
