I knew nothing about massage when I registered for their massage program. I’ve learned so many different modalities of massage from their instructors that are also practicing therapists. The director/owner, Georgia Ramos creates a welcoming learning environment for students. Since I’ve been state certified I have been practicing massage. I have no regrets at all!
When I decided to go to massage school in 2015, I picked MTI for a few good reasons - it was the closest to my location, the price was affordable, and the program was flexible. Little did I know how much my life was going to change! The instructors were all long-time practitioners with solid experience in both practice and teaching - no recent grads of the school with little to no practice experience. While I didn't adore all of them, the instruction was top-notch, and I knew I could rely on the tools they gave me. Another important aspect of education for me was ethics, and the school imbued us with a strong grounding in treating bodywork as a profession and encouraging us to put client care first. My fellow students had lots of different goals, from medical massage to sports and deep tissue, energetic work - a great range of interests and we shared our plans for the future. It's been 8 years and I'm still in touch with a good number of them. I continue to take CE classes and return to repeat classes in modalities I love, just for the joy of being in class with teachers I respect and students who are invested in learning from the best. I can't recommend them enough, from the owner and staff to the students who push themselves to go further, work better, and be a credit to bodyworkers everywhere. If you pick MTI for your education, you'll be very glad you did!
