After 19 years of private practice and with over 800 hours of intensive study in advanced Thai massage I am humbled and excited to be offering private Thai massage lessons and mentoring sessions. My experience in working with so many people allows me to see and feel your personal style (of bodywork), and enables me to offer lighthearted, clear instruction and feedback that will allow you to work more comfortably with less effort.

At this time I am offering two different options for private mentoring:
1 .If you are new to Thai massage or have little study I ask you to commit to a year of twice monthly, two hour private sessions with me. Thai massage/medicine is a deep pool of knowledge, one that takes time and commitment to understand and embody. Committing to this way of learning with me offers you a high quality, intimate and hands on education in this incredible healing modality. You’ll learn theory as well as practice, the two go hand in hand. Contact me if you would like more information and to discuss price and payment options.

2. If you have studied Thai massage before and want to come learn more deeply, brush up on skills, get feedback about body mechanics and techniques, etc. then this is the option for you. Lessons are customized to what you want to study, but can also be teacher’s choice if you so desire. Bring a body to practice on if needed, or come with a friend for dual study. If you would like a partner but do not have one please contact me as I have some students who would gladly partner with you for a lesson.

Personalized lessons are great for:
• Learning sequenced Thai massage
• Learning spot specific techniques for chronic or acute issues and injury recovery
• Learning new techniques, including working with herbal compresses and balms
• Honing known skills, or learning them in a new way
• Practicing timing, transitions and flow
• Bringing awareness to body mechanics
• Learning how to balance a client’s energy levels (too wired? sluggish?)
• Gaining confidence
• Learning to be present and grounded in your body

Some areas of possible study with me include:
• Learning to work the layers of the body as taught by Thai theory
• Working with your feet, knees and elbows (save those arms!)
• Making and using Thai herbal compresses, including pre and post-natal compresses
• Compression and stretching
• Sen (line) work
• Point work
• Wind gate work
• Abdominal massage
• Basic Buddhism and meditation
• Mentoring and support with marketing, building and retaining a long term clientele that you love
• Learning how to overcome fear and maintain boundaries
