At the Center for Barefoot Massage, we believe that true mastery comes from continuous, hands-on learning. While our classes are designed to maximize retention, attending just once may not be enough to fully grasp all the techniques. Revisiting courses allows you to deepen your understanding and refine your skills.

Each of our instructors brings a unique perspective to the same core content. By experiencing different teaching styles or simply refreshing your knowledge after some time, you gain valuable insights that enhance your practice.

To support your ongoing education, we offer several options:

• Revitalize (Refresher): A day-at-a-time update to keep your skills sharp.
• Touch-Ups: Focused trade sessions targeting specific techniques.
• Retake: Enroll in the full course again for a comprehensive review.

Investing in repeated, in-person training not only boosts your confidence but also ensures you provide the best service to your clients.

Keep learning, keep growing!

Refreshers

$125/day, no CE’s, no new manuals. Email instructor for availability.

If you’ve already taken our classes, you are eligible to take our Revitalize or “refresher” class, which is where you’ll drop in into an existing class that you have already attended You will be working side by side with LMT’s new to that class – or if the class is full, you may be a wallflower listening and observing every move.

When are the refresher classes?! Any class on the schedule, if a spare spot is available, has the potential to be a refresher class. To see if space is available and if a spare spot is able to be offered, email the instructor of the class coinciding with the dates and location that you’d like to drop in on. The prereq is just that you’ll need to have attended that class previously. (Like if you want a Fundamentals refresher, you must have already attended our Fundamentals class.)

The price is $125/day of class, so any 1 day class (Hot Ashi, Clinical1) is $125. The 2 day classes (Intermediate, ROM, Advanced, Fijian/Matwork) are $250. The 3-day Fundamentals class is $375. It is at each individual instructors discretion if they choose to offer days of each class a-la-cart, or if all must be attended – this is based on the needs of the classroom for that particular set of dates, and other logistical factors.

No CE’s are issued for these review courses, and no new instruction manuals are provided – but you can order a replacement or updated manual for $100 prior to your attendance at these events.

Touch-Ups

$100, 4 CE’s, no new manuals. Look for “Touch-Up” on our schedule to sign up.

Instructor supervised and guided trade sessions between barefoot massage practitioners who have previously attended the full “core” class of the same name: for example, you may only attend the Fundamentals Touch Up if you’ve already attended our FasciAshi Fundamentals course. We will be working on body mechanics, technique updates and refinement on strokes specific to this class. 

You’ll receive 4 CE’s, and the tuition cost is $100. No new instruction manuals are provided, so be sure to bring your original. Replacements can be provided for $100. To sign up, look for “Touch-Up” next to course names on our schedule.

Get back in touch with massage trades between barefoot massage practitioners like you who have previously attended the same training.

During these Instructor supervised sessions, we help touch-up your body mechanics, offer customized technique tweaks and give you the space to develop a deeper confidence in the skills and content from class. You will give and receive from another trained practitioner, connect with fellow Barefoot Massage Therapists, and work directly with the instructor on things you specifically need to succeed.

Prerequisites: Previous attendance in the matching “core” class

Learning Outcomes: Students will demonstrate higher confidence in application of beginner barefoot massage techniques.

Retake!

Re-attend the class with a beginners mind, and soak up every minute as if it was the first time you heard it. Full CE’s will be awarded, a new instruction manual, and 100% participation allowed when you retake a class. Discounts are not available, so the full tuition price is applied. Sign up for any class you’ve already attended from the class schedule here.
