The PMTI Summer SIPS Series

The Potomac Massage Training Institute will offer its first annual summer “Supervised Intra-disciplinary Practical Sessions” (SIPS) Series taking place in July and August. This free series offers the local community a convenient location to meet other bodywork professionals, and conduct short massage exchanges intended to benefit both your body and your practice.

What Are SIPS? 

As part of PMTI’s commitment to our graduates and the local massage community within the DMV area, we are offering massage therapists the opportunity to partake in free, supervised, safe massage exchanges among trusted practitioners at our convenient location. 

​

These structured sessions will offer therapists two half-hour exchanges, followed by group discussions intended to provide the opportunity for professionals to meet and work with other people locally to gain additional practice and receive feedback on the tools/techniques. Techniques conveyed in SIPS are chosen by participants in order to provide additional support in areas where practitioners feel challenged in their fields.​

​Who is this for? 

Whether you are an active, licensed therapist looking to receive body work, want to brush up on skills, experience different styles, meet the local community, or you are interested in  getting back into massage, SIPS are the perfect venue. If you are interested in becoming a mentor, or being mentored—or simply interested in getting a little work in a comfortable, safe environment—then SIPS are for you!

 

When are these SIPS taking place?

The summer SIPS sessions will happen at PMTI on the second (2nd) and fourth (4th) Tuesdays of July and August, from 7:00-9:30pm. This free program is open to bodywork professionals in the local community.

  • July 8th

  • July 22nd

  • August 12th

  • August 26th

 

What do you need to bring?

Bring yourself, sheets, any creams/oils that you use, proper clothing (shorts/sports bra, etc., if you prefer a clothed exchange), an openness to learning and sharing, and a desire to play a more active role as part of the DMV massage community.  The school will provide massage tables, chairs, bolsters and changing screens if needed.
