New Class---Massage For Fun—this class is similar to Couples Massage, but geared more for friends or family to enjoy the class with out needing to go to any level of undress. The main difference is that it is a 2 hour class, rather than 1 or 2 (3) hour classes, and a portion of the class will be taught in a seated position, then I will show variations on the floor. Please note that if you have issues with your knees, it is a good idea to bring an extra pillow or towel in addition to the other items to bring so that your knees are more comfortable. The first 10-20 minutes of either class will be a brief discussion about what makes a good massage/atmosphere and how to protect your body. The rest is hands on training.

Please note: Classes are provided strictly for "Personal Enrichment" purposes only. I am not a school so I cannot give you a diploma and I am not a certifying body so I cannot certify you. As of this moment there is no licensing in Pennsylvania for massage. There is an optional National Certification.
For this, you would need 500+ hours of education.
Please check anyone's credentials if your goal is to become a Certified Massage Therapist.

With my massage lessons you will learn simple, yet slightly advanced techniques to share the gift of massage with your friends, partners, family and even pets!

I will also demonstrate how to give a massage without injuring your body. I often hear that people won't massage or can't get a massage by their spouse and one of the reasons they give is "it hurts my hands". I can show you how to avoid that.

For my Posture & Flexibility Class—I customize this to each group—I have never taught the same exact class twice. I honor each person’s level of flexibility. My goal for this class is more about awareness and empowerment, adding simple techniques and stretches throughout the busy day or to create your own routine and to make it fun. Once we are aware of a problem is when we can find a solution to it. Poor posture and inflexible muscles can cause a myriad of other health problems, as can dehydration. The first 30 minutes of this workshop is a lecture/discussion explaining how our bodies get to where they are, and mental, physical and spiritual ways that we can create health and flexibility. The rest of the class is hands on stretching. Please note, that at times I have a 3 hour workshop. You would not be stretching for 3 straight hours! 30 minutes of discussion, a short break in the middle, and some of the stretching techniques require a partner. And of course if at any time a certain stretch does not suit you, you do not need to do it. I would ask that you let me know, and I can help you find an alternative.

I offer several different workshops, and variations on each. You have the option of coming to my office, have me come to your location, or you may join me at the various local community centers where I will be offering these lessons, (see What s New for dates, prices and contact information for the community center events).

If you would like these workshops offered at your local community center, please contact me for more information. (See Contact Me ).

**Please note that there are price differences between lessons/workshops held at my office, your location, and even between each individual community center and other facilities. Please contact each facility to find out specific costs and policies, however they are all comparable).

Amount of information covered, and hand on time by therapist for each individual will be determined by the total number of participants. Please see above descriptions. If it is only 1 person or couple learning, you need not be as concerned about your attire since you will always be covered and only be with your chosen partner.)

Private lessons make it possible for me to give individual attention and more hands on treatment by me. These private lessons will be customized to the participants.
