We have successfully completed three batches of our Massage and Spa course, which is part of the Lha Livelihood Programme. This course trainer was Miss Tashi Lhamo. The Massage and Spa course covers Traditional Tibetan Massage, Thai Massage and an introduction to Swedish Massage. In addition to massage, course participants received training in personality development and financial literacy. The course took place at Ahimsa House.

The third batch started on September 16, with 9 students. We distributed certificates to students on October 25 on their successful completion of one month’s intensive classroom training at the Spalon. Now they are doing Internships at various massage centres in the town over the next two months.
