Florida School of Massage

The intention of the first three days of the program is to introduce the students to awareness based bodywork through short talks and experiential exercises. The students begin the program with sensitivity and perceptivity exercises which help form the base for contacting our clients with safety and respect. Students are introduced to communication and language skills that will be used throughout the program, as well as exercises for strengthening and stretching the legs, back, and hands as preparation for the physical nature of the massage program. Florida School of Massage begins with Foundations of Bodywork and Swedish Massage, a general flowing technique designed to move blood and lymph and to relieve aching muscles while increasing relaxation and general well-being. Body mechanics and the context of sensitivity and trust that continues throughout the program are introduced in Foundations of Bodywork and Swedish Massage. Classes are only available on campus. Financial aid is available to those who qualify.
