... and optimise the time they have in Chiang Mai.

Sunshine Massage School presents 2 possible combinations we believe make interesting intensive trainings based on the beginner's course and our existing scheduled advanced classes.

Each "Combo" starts with 2 consecutive beginner’s courses, a very rich experience. If you have completed courses with us before, please get in touch with us and we'll define together where you can start your journey. Taking into account your needs, time available, and goals, we will be happy to customize a program for you.

1 beginner's course  +  1 beginner's course  +  Fieldwork

5 weeks to build great foundations, including practical experience.

The course starts with the Basic Beginner's course and follows Asokananda’s advice to repeat this fundamental class. In the third and fourth weeks we revisit the basic course, diving deeper into practice and also learn how to make and apply herbal balls. 

In the last week, knowledge and techniques are put into practice by giving massage at a home for elderly people under the supervision of the teacher in the mornings, receiving feedback and additional teachings in the afternoons.

This is a very intensive training and the students can learn quite a lot in a relatively short time. However, some students found it a little too hard and got stressed, while others completed the training without problems. Based on this experience, we have added a week off after the first four weeks of training.
