So Much Is Growing at Balanced! Events, Yoga & 2027 Classes
Fall Update
So Much Is Growing at Balanced!
Community • Connection • Wellness • Education
It's been an exciting few months at Balanced School of Massage & Wellness, and I wanted to share a little of what's been happening behind the scenes, along with some upcoming opportunities to connect, learn, and experience something new!
When I opened the school, my vision was to create more than just a place to learn massage therapy. I wanted to build a space where education, wellness, and community could come together. It's been exciting to watch that vision start taking shape.
A Little Update From the Classroom
Our massage therapy students have been busy!
With our current cohorts underway, the school is coming to life with hands-on practice, anatomy lessons, new techniques, and plenty of learning along the way.
One of my favorite parts of teaching is watching students begin to connect what they're learning in the classroom with what they're feeling through their hands. There's something really special about watching confidence grow as students discover their own approach to bodywork.
We're still in the early stages of building the school, but I'm excited about the community that's beginning to form here.
And while our students are hard at work, we're also opening the doors for more opportunities for the wider community to experience Balanced!
Community Thai Massage Night
An affordable, shared-space massage experience!
We're bringing several massage therapists together for a special evening of Thai bodywork.
Our classroom will be transformed into a communal massage space with Thai mats, where guests can enjoy 60 minutes of assisted stretching, compression, therapeutic bodywork, and warm Thai herbal compresses.
60 minutes | $75 per person
Date: 10/22 Limited appointments available!
Balanced After Dark
An opportunity to connect, reflect, and explore healing.
We're excited to host Healing the Lineage, an upcoming experience centered around Ceremony, Ritual and Release.
Join Tania Jamie, Cody Mendoza and myself for an evening of healing.
Date: 10/29 Time: 7 - 9pm Investment: $60
Tuesday Night Yoga
Movement, mindfulness, and community—without the financial barrier.
Tuesday evenings are an opportunity to roll out your mat, move your body, and connect with others.
Our community yoga classes are donation-based because I believe wellness practices should be accessible, regardless of someone's budget.
Whether you're an experienced yogi or just getting started, you're welcome here.
Tuesdays | 6:30 - 7:45pm Pay What You Can
Bring your mat, come as you are, and enjoy some time for yourself.
Thinking About Becoming a Massage Therapist?
2027 Enrollment Opportunities
We're already looking ahead to 2027 and planning three different massage therapy cohorts to accommodate different schedules, lifestyles, and career goals.
Our 650-hour massage therapy program blends a strong foundation in anatomy and evidence-informed education with hands-on training in a variety of therapeutic and holistic modalities.
April 2027 — Every-Other-Weekend Cohort Designed for working adults and those who need a more flexible training schedule.
June 2027 — Summer Intensive Cohort An accelerated option for students ready to dedicate more time to their massage education.
September 2027 — Weekday Hybrid Cohort A combination of weekday hands-on training and online coursework.
Exact start dates and schedules are being finalized.
Whether you're considering a new career, looking for more meaningful work, or simply curious about massage therapy, I'd love to help you explore whether this path is right for you.
More to Come!
We're also working on some exciting collaborations with local wellness practitioners, including hands-on workshops, seasonal self-care experiences, and opportunities to learn from other professionals in our community.
My hope is that Balanced continues to grow into a place where people can come to learn something new, care for themselves, connect with others, and feel welcome.
Thank you for being part of this journey, whether you've been supporting Balanced for years or have just recently found us.
I can't wait to share what's next!
