“Body Mind College has been the best move “spiritually” I have ever made. The perfect place for my life to truly unfold in the way it was always supposed to. From the first day it was clear to me that this school is a lot more than just a massage school. Body Mind College is for most people a time of salvation. It was clear that this was a huge part of my life’s plan. The perfect place to finally heal my life!”

Programs

HOLISITIC HEALTH PRACTITIONER PROGRAM - 1000 HOURS
“Healer, Heal Thyself.”
What does that actually mean?
At Body Mind College we believe that you can’t give what you haven’t got.
Our 1000-hour HHP program will give you direct experiences in your own personal healing process, as well as training the skills necessary to be a Holistic Health Practitioner.
What does it mean to be holistic?
Holistic means addressing the whole person, not just their body, but who they are in mind, and emotions.
Unlike a typical massage school, we have a truly holistic and balanced program with one quarter of our program focused on studying the body, one quarter on the emotions, another quarter on the mind, and a final quarter, truly unique to our school, that teaches how to integrate all three.
As part of our “Healer/Heal Thyself” approach, students will attend six (6) weekend retreats to support the immersion process into personal healing, as well as into the material and the skills necessary to be proficient as a Holistic Health Practitioner.

MASSAGE THERAPIST PROGRAM - 520 HOURS
Our massage program was developed by Dr. Barry Green, one of only two Americans to receive the “Greatest Massage Therapist of the 20th Century” award, and holder of the Guinness Book of World Records for a 50-hour Marathon Massage.
This unique program not only teaches bodywork techniques and methods, but also emphasizes training the skills necessary to be successful in massage.
In our three-part training of Body-Work Skills, students will develop such skills as “connection to the client,” “working with intention,” and “releasing the energy of trauma.” Students will also have an opportunity to develop and maintain proper body mechanics; a necessity for a full and rewarding massage career.
The 500-hour program includes two weekend retreats designed to provide an immersion experience into the material, as well as an opportunity for students to establish a deep connection to themselves and their body.
Our Massage Training is the foundation for the 1000-hour HHP program and will also introduce students into the holistic aspects of healing, and how these aspects integrate into a massage practice.

MASSAGE TECHNICIAN - 100 HOURS

Body Mind College’s Massage Technician course is a unique program training you in the foundational, underlying principles of massage therapy and health as a whole. In this class you learn all of the traditional bodywork techniques that are used in a practice, but rather than focusing on the techniques we train you in what is underlying the techniques. You will learn how to connect with your client, how to find trauma in their body and how to release it. This is a simple, but profound teaching style that we have had great success with over the last 18 years. You will also learn the art of T’ai Chi – the most widely used exercise in the world. We train you in T’ai Chi so that you can learn to use your body in a way that you will not be injured doing massage. This is the foundational class that the rest of your education will build upon.
