Thai Bodywork Practitioner (TBP) Certification
This is our basic level certification that can be earned by fulfilling a set of requirements consisting of coursework, testing and documented practice. TBP certification establishes that the student has achieved a professional standard of practice.
The TBP 220-hour professional standard ensures that practitioners
are adequately trained in several styles of Thai bodywork,
understand basic anatomy and contraindications, and have the skills
they need to be successful. The TBP Certification serves as the
foundation and prepares students for our advanced classes including
the
Clinical Thai Bodywork Practitioner Certification (CTBP).
