If you’re in Byron Bay for a while and have an interest in Eastern healing therapies, check out the Byron Thai Massage School. The generations of experience and knowledge learned and passed down through feeling and intuition has evolved Thai Massage into one of the four principal components of traditional Thai medicine, along with nutrition, herbal medicine and spiritual practice.
Byron Thai Massage School was born in 2003 from the passion Valentina Gombi has for this amazing style of massage. Valentina works together with one of Byron’s best yoga teachers, who designs a class every morning based on the sequence students will learn on the day.
Valentina has purposely created the full course as a 15 day training for 8 hours per day, rather than 10 days, so students have the time to have extra practice and integrate the new knowledge under supervision, with small classes to resulting in more feed-back, personal attention and knowledge transfer delivered in a more personalised way.
Training is offered from a beautiful studio in an ideal setting, specifically built for the course, supported by the comforts of a full kitchen, covered outdoor area and a quiet, serene atmosphere.
Offering small group courses or two-on-one tuition to suit varying needs and levels, for a taster, the basic 5 day course is a good option. If you’re looking for a full qualification, then the professional 3 week intensive practitioner training is the way to go, with two-on-one basic or advanced tuition also able to be tailored to your needs and experience.
