Esalen Massage is a world-renowned healing art and is the foundation for many of the massage methods now taught around the globe. What makes Esalen Massage unique is its emphasis on the development of presence and awareness in both practitioner and client, making it a means for personal growth and the transformation of human consciousness.
The Esalen Institute has historically supported practices oriented toward healing body, mind, self, and community as paths toward reaching our fullest potential, both individually and collectively. The Esalen Massage Teacher Training is designed to give participants skills both to support their individual development as healing artists and, more importantly, to bring groups of people together in the collective exercise of healing through touch.
Becoming an Esalen Massage teacher means becoming a standard bearer of the highest quality and professionalism in the healing arts. Training lay people in this eldest of all healing practices, the sacred art of touch, requires the development of self-awareness, presence, knowledge, and skill. If you have been an Esalen Massage practitioner for at least 2 years, and want to dedicate yourself to mastery of this powerful healing art, then you are qualified to apply for this training.
