Our teaching philosophy is to teach massage concepts, not memorized routines. We teach easy to learn massage approaches that stress the use of proper body mechanics, positioning, and technique to enable an individual to give massage without feeling drained and exhausted afterwards. Students may range from individuals who want an hour lesson so they can provide a better massage for their partner, to professional massage therapists who want to improve their skills while relaxing on the North Shore of Lake Superior. Individuals may spend an hour or two with an experienced teacher learning concepts and techniques. Those who may have an ambition to become a massage therapist may discover if it is something they wish to pursue further after brief instruction.
Parents can receive instruction in infant and child massage.
Couples may schedule a teacher to work with them for several hours or a workshop-style weekend. Partners will alternately give and receive massage with the guidance of an experienced teacher. Methods will be learned that reduce or eliminate unneeded effort in giving massage. A wonderful, helpful way to spend a weekend together while learning techniques that bond you closer to each other. Groups may schedule a teacher to provide a short presentation, a weekend workshop, or hands-on learning seminar.
