Metta in Motion
Metta in Motion is a Thai Massage school located in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia. Metta in Motion classes range from Certification Classes, Advanced Classes, Barefoot Thai Massage and Pre-Natal Classes. As well as shorter Classes, Four Hour Taster, Two Day Introduction, and Couples Thai Massage. All the classes are small and intimate with lots of individual attention. Metta, meaning Loving Kindness is a large part of the class, giving Loving kindness to our clients, loving kindness to our classmates and especially loving kindness to ourselves. With small classes Mia is able to teach the Metta in Motion method clearly, calmly, concisely, with lots of individual attention, and Metta to each student equally.
Even though Metta in Motion is only two years old, it has been in the making for ten years. Mia has over twenty years of teaching experience, from teaching at an Acupuncture school and a Massage school in Chicago, to teaching for Lotus Palm in Montreal. Now, living in Victoria she continues to share the Metta, from this beautiful location.
Mia’s love for Thai Massage began after a friend who traveled to Northern India, where Thai Massage originates from, shared some of the Thai Massage that she learned. Mia realized that there was something better than the Shiatsu that she had been practicing, and knew that she had to learn this beautiful ancient healing form. She went to Thailand and learned Thai Massage at the Sun Shine Network and with Pichest Boonthumme. After three months she returned back to Chicago and felt that there was still so much more to learn. She found two woman teaching Thai Massage at their school in Chicago, Open Secrets, and Mia continued to study with them for the next three years. After a few years of traveling and teaching Thai Massage Mia moved to Montreal and began to learn the Lotus Palm method, and eventually become a teacher for them. At that point Metta in Motion was a seed planted in the heart and mind of Mia. She knew that one could not ever know enough about Thai Massage, and promised her self that she would continue to learn and one day open her own school.
Still feeling like she could learn more, last year Mia went to Ojai California and learned with Saul David Raye as well as with Sacred Asia in Whistler.
In creating Metta in Motion, Mia wanted to take the best of everything she has learned and put that into the form and flow of Metta in Motion.
Since Metta means loving kindenss is a large part of Thai Massage, as well as meditation, it just made sense to call the school Metta in Motion. Metta in Motion embodies the spirit and soul of Thai Massage.
In January of 2008 the doors of Metta in Motion, and even though Metta in Motion does not yet have its own physical space she is still is able to teach and offer Thai Massage Sessions. She often teaches at the lovely Queenswood Centre which is near the University and Childrens Hospital.
Since class size is limited it is good to register early to secure your space in the class. Mia makes the classes fun and easy to learn, an experience not to be missed. Whether you are learning to work on family and friends, or a new way to work on clients, or just to experience what you have been hearing so much about.
