Introductory Massage Course
A powerful experience at every turn.
Course Overview
The Introductory course enables you to have a taste of Evolve College’s amazing training, plus give and receive the very popular, and deeply relaxing Evolve Introductory techniques all weekend long! You can decide from there whether you would like to extend that training into a full accredited qualification in massage, or just use what you have learned over the two days on family and friends.
Evolve Massage puts uncompromising integrity and potential in your hands. Our depth of care in training and our focus on each and every one of our students brings the notion of professionalism to a whole new level.
Evolve College's founding owners and directors have been dedicated to delivering massage training that has been leading the way for 20 years. Thousands of students of this and our previous RTO have experienced the Introductory Massage Course during this time - mums and dads, school leavers, allied health professionals, carers, people seeking a career change, accountants, plumbers, architects, lawyers, doctors and more. The range of backgrounds and reasons for participating are endless, and the whole experience is priceless. For some, massage remains their hobby, but for many others it becomes their career.

You don't have to want to practice massage professionally to do this Introductory course. Some students just do it for the love of massage and to be able to give it to family and friends. Others use it as a launching pad (as subject 1) into nationally recognised training. And others may do the 2-day Introductory course as a trial, or taster, to see if they want to go further and if massage might be the career for them. How far you go with the training is completely up to you!
