Workshops

Our 4-hour workshops are an excellent way to learn to offer an amazing massage to friends and family. They are going to love you that little bit more!

Our workshops are open to anyone who has an interest in learning about this style of massage, or who would like to massage their friends and loved ones. They would also suit experienced therapists who would like to add some AYM strokes and stretches to their existing practice, and yoga teachers who want to improve their hands-on adjustments.

Weekend Training Courses

A 1 or 2-weekend Introduction to Ayurvedic yoga massage training to further your practice on take a step to becoming a therapist

Our weekend trainings are great if you would like to:

  • Attend an AYM training as CPD if you have already trained in other therapeutic modalities, including as a yoga teacher, and would like to add some AYM techniques to your existing practice, or
  • Learn some AYM techniques and offer some treatments, but you are not planning to be a full time therapist in the near future, or
  • Dip your toes into the AYM technique and see if it is really for you before committing to a 300-hour training.

300-Hour Therapist Training

The course is delivered over several months, in 10 x 12-hour modules, 12 case studies and a final assessment. This includes 96 hours of in-person classroom time and a minimum of 200 hours self study, including the virtual learning materials provided (videos).

The entire content of the training is available in video format, including everything that we cover in the classroom.

Continuous Personal Development for AYM therapists

CPD training is a natural next step for therapists who have attended our 300-hour training. Minimum prerequisites are at least one of the following:

  • Modules 1-3 and some practical experience of offering AYM.
  • Adequate experience in other relevant modalities.
  • Adequate practical/applied training in anatomy, physiology and pathology.

If you are unsure or have not completed our 300-hour training, then please get in touch with Despina to discuss whether this training might be appropriate for you.

Become a teacher with AYM teacher training

We have trained two AYM teachers (our amazing graduates Linda Mebus and Sam Mulgrew) and we have a few more trainees/teaching assistants who will start teaching in the coming months. We also have a few more experienced AYM therapists interested in starting their AYM teaching journeys in the coming years.

If you are an experienced AYM therapist and you are interested in teaching, then get in touch to discuss your experience, and what you can do to prepare for your teacher training. We can then add you to the next batch of teacher trainees.

  • Katherine

    So much love and gratitude all the beautiful souls in my training group. I love that we created a space of safety and trust for everyone to be exactly who they needed to be and I think that’s a really special thing to have been able to share in, so thank you!

  • Sarah B

    Jaqueline is a great masseuse, very thoughtful and always checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable- she created a really safe, friendly and welcoming environment. The massage left me feeling completely relaxed, highly highly recommended!! 

  • Mark

    My 1st AYM with Jacqueline definitely won’t be the last. I’m from a sporting background and have had quite a few physio type massages working on niggles and injuries Iv picked up. This type of massage has blown me away. Far better than I could of imagined. Jacqueline worked on all the areas specific to my needs. She was so knowledgeable on anatomy and physiology and explained the whole process as we went along. The body feels great but feel like I’m walking around with a glow as well. I would highly recommend 🙏
