Blooming Touch Festival

ABOUT US

Blooming Touch Fest is an event where touch and body therapists, Tai Chi practitioners and people interested in these disciplines can come together. During the festival, we want participants to learn from and nurture each other and experience different approaches to body therapy through an intense programme. Through massage workshops, Tai Chi practices and massage exchanges, we aim to establish a communication network between therapists and people who are into these disciplines and to take steps to maintain this interaction in the future.

FOR WHOM?

Touch therapy instructors

Touch therapists who have received basic massage training and want to deepen their knowledge in their own discipline and different types of massage

People who are interested in massage and want to step into this discipline with an intense program

Practitioners of Tai Chi and Qigong and those who are interested in internal arts
