Testimonials
I took Andre's 3-day Table Thai Massage course in Niagara this past weekend and had a fantastic experience. Andre put all of us at ease immediately with his calm, encouraging, and professional demeanor.
For me, the course was a perfect blend of theory, structure, manual practice, and creative expression. I felt comfortable to ask my questions and learn at my own pace. Andre demonstrated numerous techniques on all of us so we could feel the effects from a seasoned professional, and offered many individual pointers that became lightbulb moments for me.
My views of massage therapy have expanded in taking this course and I feel excited and confident to move forward in my massage therapy career.
I would highly recommend taking any of Andre's courses if you are interested in becoming a better manual therapist. Thanks Andre!

Just finished a 3 day Thai Table massage workshop with Andre. It was excellent! Very well organized - lots of material but plenty of time to ask questions, get help and practice. Andre is extremely knowledgeable and loves his craft but he's also very down to earth and approachable. He's a super nice person and made this workshop fun and enjoyable. I Highly recommend his workshops and I am looking forward to attending another one in the near future.​

I've just completed Andre's 3 day Table Thai Massage training this past weekend and have already implemented some of the techniques with clients who are impressed with how they feel afterwards!
While the training covers a basic Thai massage routine on the table for the whole body, he sprinkles in showing some advanced/alternative techniques and encourages students to explore their own style and techniques following the principles he teaches.
It's incredible to learn from an instructor who is skilled after many years of training under master practitioners (and still learning, as we all are). Andre shows his students how to take a "great" techniques we perform to an "awesome" technique, with just a small adjustment to positioning to keep the receiver safe and comfortable on the table and maintaining body mechanics for the practitioner.
If you have an opportunity to train with Andre, don't hesitate!

I took Andre's Table Thai Massage course last month and would highly recommend it to any RMT who is looking to expand their knowledge and offer their clients a different treatment option.
The course was three days in length and Andre does a fantastic job of keeping it both fun and informative throughout. Although he does teach you a full body 'routine', he also encourages you to make the treatment your own based on the client's needs, what you feel during treatment and your intuition as a therapist. He encourages you to try new techniques or a variation on what he has shown you and is always right there to help you pivot if any technique isn't working for you. He excels at presenting the information in a very clear manor and his passion for the material he is teaching is apparent and infectious.
I am currently looking at signing up for the Traditional Thai Massage Level I course. If you are thinking about adding Thai massage to your skill set I highly recommend taking any of Andre's available courses.
