" Since completing your massage course I have continued practicing yoga every day and have been feeling (and eating) much healthier too! I think my personal growth has been more proudness than my massage learning ( which I have been getting great feedback about too ! ). "

I have been blessed to be one of the first two people to experience Mary Jo's Holistic Intuitive Massage Course under the Vibrant Wellness Academy. The course was complete with practical teachings and hands-on experience, interesting videos and an informative course material booklet. Mary Jo was able to offer her wisdom and vast experience, share her vibrant energy and wonderment of the Universe, and awaken in me a passion for massage.
Steve, Mary Jo's husband, who radiates beautiful grounding energy and is wonderful to talk to creates healthy, vegetarian masterpieces. The meals were always something to look forward to and the many plants used in preparation are organic and grown in their own garden. The location of the retreat is idilic and it is not hard to lose track of time enjoying the serenity of the nature, calls of the wildlife and snow capped mountains that surround you.
