Please bring with you:
2 or 3 large towels, preferably large sarongs/pareos (as they are easy to wash and dry). NOTE: you can order from us Indian lungis (Indian cotton sarongs), and we will bring them for you. Price: €15 per lungi. Please place your order at least seven days before the group start.

Comfortable clothes to give and receive oil massage (not too tight) . For example, cotton trousers, t-shirts, shorts, hair bands, etc.
2 pairs of warm socks
To receive the treatment, you need to wear underwear; stretchable underwear is better.
Please bring a protective case for your glasses to avoid breakages if you wear glasses.
We walk barefoot inside the classroom, but we recommend you bring a pair of flip-flops for your bedroom.
Hand wash detergent. Also, there is a washing machine at the centre for collective use.

Take care of your belongings while travelling in public areas (Airport, metro, train station, etc.). Using a travelling money belt is best.
Any suggestion is welcome!
Personal Hygiene
Personal hygiene and cleanliness are essential for massage therapists as we work closely together during training. The best practice is to shower before and after the work day. Wash your hands and feet before and after each massage session. Wet baby wipes are handy but use sparingly. Nails should be kept short with smooth edges, using an appropriate nail file. Be careful not to cut them too fast, too short or too close to the skin, which will lead to discomfort when massaging.
Covid-19 Update
Vaccination is not required. In any case, everyone will be tested again on arrival at the centre (self-testing possible).
