I had just recently taken the MET for the cervical spine with Josh. I really appreciate that the class was small so we each got enough individual attention while learning the techniques. Josh also teaches the information well and makes it easy to comprehend and grasp the concepts. This is an in depth course with lots of information to learn. Thanks again. I hope Josh keeps adding courses to take. Well worth my time.

15 point course gave me fresh eyes on assessments that I hadn't connected previous classes.  I like having it all in one place.  Josh and Glenna are lovely and so hospitable.  Felt very looked after and smarter.  Thank you!

I took the Table Thai Massage course with Josh and it has been my favourite coures to date.  Very informative, lots of hands on time to practice the techniques and you can feel how helpful these techniques would be for the clients.  I'm looking forward to incorporating these new techniques in my practice.

As a therapist who incorporates a lot of stretching and PNF techniques in my treatments, table thai was a perfect addition to my toolbox.  Joshua is such a real, practical, down to earth and knowledgeable teacher to learn from.
