Learning the art of Esalen® Massage is an experience that often changes lives. Whether you intend to create a new career path, deepen your knowledge of bodywork, or spend time healing yourself through touch, our time together is sure to stay with you for years to come. Having taught certification courses for a number of years, we notice the lasting power of these memories - for some, as a healing recollection of new friendships made in the extraordinary Balinese landscape; for others, a time of self-exploration and transformation.

This unique form of bodywork has been developed over the last 40 years at Esalen® Institute, Big Sur , CA. Esalen® Massage is k
nown for its long, integrating strokes, and for creating deep relaxation that supports the body/mind's natural ability to self-heal.
People from all over the world come to Big Sur, California to learn this healing art. This modular training will provide you with in-depth experience and practice in basic Esalen® Bodywork techniques, enabling you to give a professional full-body massage upon completion of the course.
Your study of bodywork will be complemented by daily meditation, chanting, yoga, chi gong, ecstatic dance, and other moving meditation practices.The deeper intent of our time together is to increase our own awareness throughout our own bodies, selves, and souls. This comes about first through learning to be touched by the hands of our fellow students. You will experience in your own body the qualities of aliveness and flowing presence central to this method. The process of self-exploration is a key element, grounding this practice in the experience of your own body, thereby transforming mere technique into a true healing art.
Whatever your intention, join us for this four week journey. Our hearts will convey our experience through our hands as we learn to heal ourselves and others using this wonderfully effective method called Esalen® Bodywork.
