“Francine is astute in her approach to Thai Bodywork. In her course, she exposes the tradition, spirituality, and the all-important aspect of Chi besides the body mechanics – which I found fascinating and valuable. Her attention to detail is meticulous. Francine is very detailed in her instruction and also very patient and this was immensely helpful to me. As a learner, I felt I was flowing smoothly. To me, this has been a great foray into a modality that I intend to combine harmoniously with another.”
“Francine is an amazing and thorough instructor. Brings forth the beautiful linage that she passes down Thai Massage which is absolutely sacred. So lucky to have found this course and Francine to guide me along the path I feel so passionately about. Truly amazing <3 ”
What is the difference between the 60 hrs & 85 hrs course?
Both courses teach the same techniques and use the same manual. The difference is that the 60-hour course is more intensive, spends less time on theory, and dives right into the techniques. It is more the nuts and bolts of Thai Massage. In the 60 hrs course, there is less hands-on review time at the end of the day and less time is spent on a warm-up routine in the morning such as Qi gong, self-care, yoga, or meditation. The 60 hrs course works well for those who have less time in their schedule and less cash flow. It is taught in two segments of four days. The cost is $1495.
The 85 hrs. course is more like a retreat. You get a full hour in the morning of Qigong, yoga, meditation, or self-care time which enhances your experience and prepares your body and spirit to enter the realm of Thai Massage. The program is delivered at a slower pace and there is time for hands-on review at the end of each day. In addition, you will get an extra day as a practicum to practice two full sessions of 1.5 hr to 2 hr. session on the general public. This course is taught in 11 days. Foundation 1- 5 days. Foundation 2- 6 days. The cost is $1855
