Join three leading practitioners for a dynamic, hands-on masterclass exploring the foundations of Eastern massage and the power of floor-based bodywork. This special collaboration brings together Orachon Meechai (Founder of Orachon Wellness Spa, Toronto), Jennifer Setsuko Lee (Founder of Ecole Setsuko, Montreal), and Camille Massive (Owner of LannaThai Spa, Montreal)—each offering their unique expertise and perspective.

In this immersive experience, participants will be introduced to core principles and techniques drawn from Shiatsu, Thai Massage, and dynamic stretching practices. The workshop emphasizes working with gravity, body weight, and flow, allowing practitioners to develop greater efficiency, sensitivity, and sustainability in their practice.

You will explore:

  • Foundations of Eastern massage philosophy and touch
  • Practical floor-based techniques for full-body treatments
  • Introduction to Shiatsu pressure and meridian awareness
  • Thai massage-inspired dynamic stretching (highly requested and widely applicable)
  • Strategies for using body leverage over muscular effort to reduce strain and increase effectiveness

This masterclass is open to all levels—from students to experienced therapists—especially those looking to expand beyond table work, refine their body mechanics, and bring more movement and creativity into their sessions.

Whether you are working on the table or transitioning to floor-based treatments, this workshop offers practical tools and inspiration to elevate your practice.
