A friend of mine told me about it. it was close to where I live and very affordable for me as a young student.

Any aspects of the training – tutors, delivery, affordability, flexibility, quality – that you’d like to comment on particularly?

Lynda is welcoming and very friendly , I was comfortable from the first session, we were able to find time for the training that suited us both. The course is very accessible for everyone and includes all type of learning! It is complete and very interesting course.

What drew you to train with HHT?

I live a reasonable distance from any cities where I could attend training. Daily travel was not an option. HHT offered particularly good, high quality online training courses with hands on work provided by their numerous tutors around the country.

Any aspects of the training – tutors, delivery, affordability, flexibility, quality – that you’d like to comment on particularly?

I found the courses to be very reasonably priced, with flexibility for payment which is helpful. My tutor (Amanda) was perfect for my style of learning, with a good balance of practical and theory. A friendly and professional teacher who put me at ease. The courses are of a high standard and easy to follow. I could not fault the support throughout all the courses I took. Lynda and Amanda were always there and happy to help whenever needed.

Can you tell us a bit about how you are going to use your new skills and knowledge?

I have put my new skills to work by immediately starting my own private massage therapy clinic from home. With the knowledge I have gained from HHT and my tutor I felt confident in my ability to help people gain a measure of comfort and relief. Such incredibly rewarding work. The more you use it, the more you continue to grow. Best of all, is that the support from Amanda is still ongoing a few years along. Much appreciated HHT. Doing these courses with you has been a huge positive.

Kylie | Nelson

What drew you to train with HHT?

I had been wanting to train as a massage therapist for some time but as a mother with two young children I was limited in terms of travel and was unable to move to another city to study. Luckily, I came across HHT online and not only was it local but the majority of the study was to be completed through distance learning, so it was the perfect fit really!

Any aspects of the training – tutors, delivery, affordability, flexibility, quality – that you’d like to comment on particularly?

I have found the entire online course to be exceptionally user friendly, as well as having the flexibility to pick it up and put it down as need be (life can get in the way at times). With support from my tutor who is always just an email away, and always responds promptly.

Can you tell us a bit about how you are going to use your new skills and knowledge?

Thanks to this course I have been able to open my own business and have been successfully doing so for the past year, and I believe due to the specific content included in the course and the one on one training I received I was able to work towards and accomplish this goal, rather swiftly I might add!

My business is called Massana and I am located in my home studio in Motueka, in Sunny Nelson. I am active on Facebook and Instagram and you can find me by searching; massana_nz or else you can contact me by phone or email.

What drew you to train with HHT?

The rational of the training courses starts with the theory and anatomy to give a good understanding of different muscles, the nervous system, etc. then moves to the practical part of the training. During the practical session, different parts of the studied theory is explained on the body. This helped me to understand and know the reason for each massage stroke and its impact on the muscles as well as on the nervous system. 

I also like the flexibility of the courses, the tutors are very friendly and flexible about time and dates of the courses which makes it easy for most people to join the course. 

Any aspects of the training – tutors, delivery, affordability, flexibility, quality – that you’d like to comment on particularly?

Even though I enjoyed all aspects of the training from HHT, in particular I’d like to emphasise on the quality of the training. The quality of the training enabled me to become a massage therapist in a few months with a totally new skill being added to my professions. I am now confidently performing full body massages with a good quality and expected outcome. 

Can you tell us a bit about how you are going to use your new skills and knowledge?

For someone who comes from the very stressful engineering world, I find massage relaxes and de-stresses me even though I’m the one giving the massage, so my plan is to start my own massage practice as a side business for now and gradually lead it to my main job in the future.
