250 Hour Certification Program

Certified Trainings

Spirit Winds School of Thai Massage provides a 250-hour Thai Massage certification program comprised of quality training in two styles of Traditional Thai massage: Northern style and Jap Sen Herbal style.  Classes are approved for CEUs with NCBTMB and Thai Healing Alliance International.  Class offerings are for both the beginner student and the advanced therapist so that you can keep coming back to increase your skills and to refine your specialized work.

Each class has its own certificate for CEUs approved with NCBTMB.  You can take classes individually at any time that it is offered and receive a certificate or you can take all of the classes to complete the 250 Hour Program.  Students are welcome to take any class a second time for half price and receive another certificate.  After taking a class twice you can come for free!

All Trainings and Events can be paid for with a $100 deposit to secure your space or paid in full.  If you pay in full by the deadline you will receive the discount price. If you need to make payments special arrangements can be made by contacting Spirit Winds.

Spirit Winds School of Thai Massage is approved by the NCBTMB as a Continuing Education Approved Provider #225.
Approved Institution by Thai Healing Alliance International

2023 UPDATES:
Spirit Winds is expanding its access by offering most of the trainings with options for Home Study and Distance Learning as well as scheduled Live In-Person trainings.
Home Study: We are in the process of creating the Home Study options which will be available later this year (2023).  Home Study will include the Professionally made video (already available on the website), manual, in-class videos of all of the demos, the first person practice for you to work along with, written tests, 1-hour of interactive zoom time with an instructor after completing half of the content and 2 hours of interactive zoom time at the end for a supervised session with feedback.  Optional In-Person 1-Day tutorials will be available for an extra fee.
Distance Learning: options are available now for the Thai Foot (15 CEUs), Thai Table (14 CEUs), Thai Herbal (6 CEUs), Introduction to Northern Style (14 CEUs) and Introduction to Jap Sen Style (15 CEUs), Jap Sen Fundamentals (35 CEUs) and Levels 1 and 2 Northern Style (85 CEUs).  You will be able to be in the class virtually while it is being offered in-person.  It is also possible to request it for yourself one-to-one or for a group of your own. We can schedule it according to when it is convenient in sections or consecutive days.  Schedules can be made with Janice Gagnon or one of the Spirit Winds Affiliate teachers (Cara Ringland, Aja Novellino, Chelsie Wilson).
One-to-One Coaching (tutorials) are now available On-Line for past students of Spirit Winds for an hourly fee.  Ask questions, practice and get feedback with one of the Spirit Winds Instructors over zoom.
