What it's about
Dynamic Thai Massage, taught by Flora, is an approach to the body developed in Europe by David Lutt and Takis Oikonomou and inspired by the style of the late Ajahn Chaiyuth Priyasith. The course describes it as the poetry of perpetual movement, in which giver and receiver move in resonance. It aims to restore lost mobility and release the nervous system by connecting with the water element.
The course combines techniques from Thai massage with osteopathic ones such as harmonic techniques, general treatment, rocking and shaking, applied with precision, intention and presence. It works on fluidity, continuity and changes of rhythm and invites mindful movement and creativity in a playful spirit. The tools cover the whole body, with the main focus on restoring movement of the spine, opening the ribcage and freeing the breath, working the lines with rocking techniques and bringing back mobility to the main joints.
The course is designed for intermediate and advanced Thai massage practitioners. It runs from 18 to 22 January 2027 (5 days, 30 hours) at Sunshine Massage School, 159/2 Kaeo Nawarat Road, Chiang Mai. It costs 13,500 baht. A deposit of 50 % of the course fee secures the place once it has been confirmed.
