Im a student at this school and the massage instructors Jeanette and Alisha are great. They’re very thorough and supportive, after being out of school for YEARS I don’t think I would have been able to successful without them. I am thankful that I came through at this time. There are a few things I think every business can improve on but I believe they are making the efforts to improve the school as a whole. Thanks for being there for those who need a career pivot.
