THE ESSENCE OF MASSAGE
Why "Feel First"?
We’re hearing more and more massage instructors talk about the value of "feel" in their work. But in reality, very few actually practice it or teach it in a meaningful way. And when they do, they have good intentions. But it’s often not coming from a deep understanding, but simply because it sounds good. Do you feel the same?
Historically, in the West, massage training focuses on techniques and textbooks. But for Thai practitioners, true healing comes from the feel. Our complete 4-week course brings Thai massage back to its essence by placing the feel at the heart of it!
This 4-week journey will deepen your skills and expertise, helping you create transformative experiences for you and your patient. Authenticity cannot be seen with the eyes, but is revealed in the heart. And the feel is the connection between the hands and the heart.
From the basics of touch and feel to more advanced topics such as what to feel and how to use it effectively, you'll discover everything you need to know to create memorable, effective and beautiful massage sessions.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced massage therapist, this course will provide you with the insights and techniques to keep your massage pure and take it to the next level. So, if you're ready, let's get started!

BEFORE SIGNING UP
Who Is This Course For?
This course is designed for both beginners and advanced practitioners who are passionate about elevating their Thai massage skills. If you are coming to learn as many techniques as you can while you are in Thailand or only socializing, you will find the right place for you elsewhere. On the other hand, if you have a strong desire to put the feel at the heart of your practice, this training is for you.
PRICING
Flexible Enrollment Options
We understand that some of you may think that it is not possible to learn to feel in just one week or even a month. I hear you say, "It takes years of practice".
So, if you are skeptical, you can try Week 1 before you commit or dive directly into the full 4-week experience.
But just to add, which instructor actually teaches and pushes their students to feel? All you see is nice books, theories and techniques. It's measurable and creates instant satisfaction. So, of course, in this context it takes years to learn to feel. We do not say that books, theories and techniques are not important, but that they should be considered as a support, not the core of the massage practice.
So, all this being said, choose the option that suits your journey:
