  • Massage techniques – learning various relaxation and therapeutic techniques.
  • Complete full-body massage – practical training covering massage from head to toe.

At Holistic Way Academy, our courses are intentionally designed without fixed start dates.

This isn’t because we run sessions infrequently — it’s because our students come from a wide range of backgrounds, professions, sometimes even time zones, and a single timetable simply doesn’t meet everyone’s needs. Rather than asking learners to fit their lives around our schedule, we adjust our schedule to fit theirs.

By organising course dates individually, we can make sure you begin your training at a time when you can fully commit to it. This approach also allows us to create balanced groups, offer more focused support, and maintain the high standard of learning we’re known for.

If you’re considering a course, we’re happy to discuss your availability, preferred pace, and payment options, and then suggest the most suitable start dates. Our goal is to make the learning experience genuinely accessible and well-structured — not rushed, not overcrowded, and never one-size-fits-all.
