Fancy a massage?

After spending a luxurious 3 days at Ragdale Hall Spa, I've decided to learn body massage. Every year after coming back from the spa I'm bitterly disappointed with the massage I got, usually because they're too soft. I have a desk job so hold a lot of tension in my back and shoulders and should get massages more regularly than once a year, but every salon I try it's the same - wishy, washy, plinky, plonky, pants.

So, I've found a local evening course which will give me a glimpse into what it'll actually be like, then I'll decide whether or not to do a proper course. TVU do an evening course at Reading for 1 year which gives you a Swedish Massage qualification. It's £880 and means I'll be commited to turn up, do 2 hours of practise massage and 3 hours of study each week.

I really fancy the idea of having a proper hobby and possibly turning it into a part-time money spinner too. After the basic course I can go on to specialise in Sports massage if I fancy - sky's the limit.
