SUMMARY:Thai Massage Certification Phase 1 - Introduction to Thai Massage/Mat or Table
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Ariela Grodner\nDate: March 14 – 15\, 2026\nTime: 9AM – 6PM\nCourse Tuition: \n$1800 if registering for all seven levels in advance\n$280 if registering for each class individually\n$350 for a single drop in.\nStudents who commit to all 7 class will get a discount\, If you miss a class for whatever reason\, it can be made up next cycle. \nLocation: Florida School of Massage\nCE Hours: 18 CEs per weekend or 126 CEs for all phases (Florida and NCBTMB) \nTo Register: Visit Bodhi Sanha’s event page \nQuestions? Contact: Ariela at arielagrodner@yahoo.com \nDescription:\nI sometimes call the first class the Watercolor class. It reminds me of a watercolor painting where the strokes are broad and soft. \nThere are lines & points traditionally applied\, however in this first class we stick with simplicity. Flow a and Joy. Presents is the foundstion of this art. \nMost will be committing for the entire training\, so our first weekend is an opportunity for joyful expressions and community shared enthusiasm of diving into this beautiful tradition and artful medicine \nWe will be observing techniques and exchanging bodywork for the entire weekend. \nSharing food and chocolate and listening is the Thai Massage way. Our intention is to leave the weekend full of enthusiasm for the progression ahead and to also have some wonderful material in which to begin the journey and share in our community. \nIt’s OK to only take one weekend of the entire program at a time in ones own pace. Ideally though we will commit to the entire program in which case we will become certified in Thai-Massage and have an extensive language of the entire system. \nOVER THE COURSE OF THIS FIRST WORKSHOP\, STUDENTS WILL LEARN AN HOUR AND A HALF LONG FORM. PRACTICED ON THE FLOOR\, THIS FORM ENABLES THE THERAPIST THE USE OF ELBOWS\, KNEES\, FOREARMS AND FEET IN A COMFORTABLE AND EFFICIENT WAY THAT UTILIZES THE BODY DYNAMIC AND ONES OWN WEIGHT TO DISTRIBUTE THE WEIGHT REQUIRED FOR THE APPLICATION OF GOOD PRESSURE. \nTHE RECIPIENT LIES RELAXED AND LOOSELY CLOTHED WHILE THE PRACTITIONER GUIDES THEM THROUGH A SERIES OF YOGIC ASANAS AND APPLIES BALANCING TOUCH TO THE BODY’S MAJOR ENERGY LINES AND POINTS. \nMat or Table\nIn this first class Ariela office students the opportunity to learn how to give a Thai-Massage either on a mat or on a massage table. The Florida school of massage provides massage tables for all students. If you would like to work on the mat\, you will need to bring one. Contact Ariela and she will help you pick one out or learn how to improvise one for this first class to see if you want to make the commitment. It’s Ariela’s preference to work on the ground but she is very flexible and capable of modifying everything for anybody’s needs. She has written a book on Thai-Massage on the table and also has video footage to help students with the transition. \nAbout Ariela Grodner\nAriela Grodner is the founder and lead instructor and practitioner at the Bodhi Sangha School of Thai Massage. She began her teaching career in 1992 in the south of India educating prisoners and tribal villagers in the benefits and practice of Shivananda Yoga.
