Thai 1 with Greg Park - 12 hours NCBTMB approved

This series of workshops is designed to introduce the students to the practice of traditional Thai massage. Performed on a mat upon the floor, Thai massage incorporates assisted stretching and rhythmic movements along with acupressure and compression to activate the bodies sense of awareness. Students will learn to assess and perform the basic movements of Thai massage while being aware of limitations and contraindications that our clients present. This full-body session is performed in four positions ( supine, side, prone and seated), with each workshop focused on two of those positions; Thai 1 ( supine and seated position) and Thai 2 (prone and side-lying). No previous experience with massage is necessary and students are asked to wear comfortable, movement friendly clothing.
