Alexandre
Rouhani
Having begun his
study of martial arts at the age of ten, Alexandre ventured
towards various energetic approaches (Qi Gong, Reiki) to finally
become fascinated by Thai Massage, which combines many techniques
into one.
His travels to Thailand
led him to study at the most reputable schools (Wat Po, Old
Medicine Hospital, Nerve Touch Institute), and meet the great
masters of Thai Massage.
His university studies
in leadership and group animation, in addition to his training
in other approaches (Lomi-Lomi and Swedish massage, physical
kinesitherapy, lymphatic drainage and reflexology) make
the course interesting and lively, as well as practical and
adapted to each participant's expectations.
At Espace Thaï,
students will benefit from Alexandre's experience and especially
his generosity at each training session.
Nadine
Basque
Trained
in kinesiology and Swedish massage therapy, Nadine has had the
opportunity to work with a widely varied clientele in the fields
of physical rehabilitation and biomechanics, which in turn has
contributed to the development of her expertise in postural
analysis. As a physically active individual, she has always
adopted an athletic and therapeutic approach, which has permitted
her to focus her practice on restoring muscular imbalances.
Recently trained
in Thai Massage, Nadine has discovered that this discipline
offers a variety of techniques that complement Swedish massage.
This allows her to have the option of effectively using her
energy when massaging, while at the same time increasing the
physical and psychological benefits for her clients. This may
be applied to the various approaches practiced (massage for
pregnancy, Lomi-Lomi, volcanic rock massage, and osteodynamics).
Teaching the Thai
Techniques to Improve Table Massage course has allowed her to
widen her horizons while sharing her kindness, her passion,
and her intuitive sense for human movement.
