 January is an important month here at Thai Bodywork, and this packed few weeks affords our students a fantastic opportunity to complete a significant portion of their TBP certification training. We still have some slots available in our Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and AP1 trainings. If you would like to join us, don't delay, as these trainings often fill.
We are making a change in the schedule -- our popular Thai Herbal Compress (Luk Pra Kob) course will be taught again on the weekend of Feb. 26-28 instead of CTB Head.
Table Thai Massage Level 1 will be taught again immediately following AP1, on Mon-Tues, Feb. 15-16. This course serves as a gateway to the rest of our program as does our Level 1 for the mat.
