Like to be able to give massages to friends and family with a bit more knowledge and confidence? Join this introduction to the basics of massage, held over two sessions.

Enrol with a friend or family member (over 16, please) and work on each other or come on your own (personal safety assured) and learn a range of basic techniques. The course is held over two Saturday mornings so you can have time to practise between sessions. Please note that this is not a professional training. Men and women both welcome.

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to:

Perform a range of basic massage strokes on the back, legs, arms, hands and feet

Demonstrate protocols for modesty and safety

Know when to refer to a professional

Bring two large (spa) towels and a smaller towel, some massage oil or wax and a comfortable pad to lie on (e.g. a foam camping mattress).

2 weeks, Sat 9:30 AM – 1:00 PM
