"My overall experience was life altering. Not just learning thai massage, but experiencing the island, the venue, the residents and my co-students. It was beautiful, calm, relaxing, rejuvenating, and inspiring, I couldn't imagine a better place to spend time and learn. I felt as though we gained a wealth of knowledge, and I am confident to practice a full body thai massage when I go home. Tara was amazing, with kindness, Spirit, and a calm that all enhanced my experience." ~ M. Harbourne, Airdire, AB
