What past students have said …………

“The advanced seminar in November - chest, neck, face proved to be very useful and informative.  I have incorporated some of the techniques in my practice, e.g. diaphragm release, rib cage release, lymphatic pump, occiput/sacrum hold etc.  It`s easy to become stale in one's own practice using the same techniques especially with clients who come on a regular basis. 

The atmosphere at Stillpoint was relaxed ,but not horizontal ,as both of you have a great depth of knowledge of your subject, backed up by excellent handouts, video and hands-on instruction with everyone able to share their own knowledge as a group. “ Jacquie , Cheltenham

“Coming to these weekends has been very useful within my practice. It has helped me to approach the subject of massage from a different angle and extended my knowledge of the subject. Besides that I enjoy listening to other therapists, to discuss experiences and learn from them. It helps to boost my confidence with corresponding benefits for my clients. The hand-outs are very good, in-depth and an excellent reference to fall back on.

I do enjoy travelling through the Cotswolds towards Stillpoint. The setting is beautiful and the house in the middle of the forest creates a haven of peace. It must be good to persuade me to drive several hours from Richmond in North Yorkshire to come to these courses.”

“Many of these trainings have been arranged and/ or delivered by Sheila & Martin.  Their approach is always professional, focussed, friendly & fun – encouraging everyone to share their own experiences & expertise for the benefit of everyone attending.  Stillpoint is a beautiful place to learn in & the trainings are very reasonably priced – which reflects Sheila & Martin’s ethos of making bodywork accessible.” Deb , Ludlow

“I have gained much from the courses I have attended at Maitri to the benefit of my own practice. The material is always relevant, well prepared, and presented most effectively in a friendly, relaxed way in delightful surroundings.”     Bryan, Cheltenham

This course inspired and motivated me. A fascinating detailed insight as to how the muscles respond and a hands on demonstration to use the massage techniques. Having put these gentle, passive, yet effective movements into practice I feel encouraged by my clients comments who are grateful for the effective results.  Sarah,  Bristol

The warm and relaxed atmosphere created by the tutors made learning a pleasure. The course content was structured in a way to make learning fun. At the end of the course you not only came away with more practical  awareness but also a host of educational handouts for further study and learning.  A super setting, wonderful food, sharing of knowledge amongst students, and tutors who obviously have people at heart makes these courses a joy to be on.
