About Me
Jo Brook
I am a warm and open-hearted person. My main loves in life centre around ecstatic dance, contact improvisation and of course cuddling! I have been practicing yoga for over 10 years. Another passion of mine is the importance of self-care. Getting out into public places enjoying flash mobs and social experiments is a fantastic and fun way for me to liberate and express myself, while connecting and sharing love in the community.
I have completed Professional Cuddling training with both Cuddlist and Cuddle Sanctuary.

How did I get into Professional Cuddling?
I was going through a difficult period in my life in 2018 and I wanted more connection, more touch, more cuddles!
I had known about Professional Cuddling from a short documentary on Facebook for a long time, and an offical Cuddle Party had started in Perth.
What I wanted though was individual cuddles, on a one-to-one basis with a practitioner who had been through some training. So after some research and asking around, I couldn't find anyone.
I then felt very inspired and excited as it dawned on me that I could be that person!
I realised that I could offer the service to others like me, who were going through a period of feeling lonely and wanting to feel more connected.
I have wanted to find a way to be in service to others in a meaningful way for over a decade, finding the right modality seemed elusive until now.
For the last few years I have discovered a passion for authentic connection, especially through healthy and consensual touch.
