Special Benefits of Training at Green Mountain Institute
Working on the public
For professional students this is an important part of your transition from student to competent practitioner. Having it occur during the training provides the opportunity to have any questions answered by your teachers and the chance to discuss the experience with fellow students. You leave the training with a sense of confidence in your skill.
Practicing on your teachers
Professional courses include opportunitiesto work on your teachers. Much advice can be given from just watching you work. However, direct and specific feedback from your teacher on the massage table helps pin point problem areas, getting you more on track if you are having difficulties and fine tuning and improving your massage if it is going well. The result is greatly increased proficiency and confidence.
Exploring the emotional aspects of massage
Emotions are often ignored in massage school. Our training helps prepare you for times when strong feelings come up for a client during a massage, and increases your ability to be comfortable with your own feelings. This results in an increased capacity to be present and create the safe space that allows another to change.
