Volunteer Opportunity: Practice Bodies Needed for Mid Week Level 4 Holistic Massage Training


We are delighted to have launched a mid week level 4 Holistic Massage Diploma.


This is a smaller cohort than our usual weekend course, and we are really keen that those students still get to feel they are part of a ‘group’. In order to expand the numbers in the room and in the experience we are recruiting a couple of volunteers from our alumni to come and join the team on the weekday training.


What would you get out of it?


  • You get to all or some of the face to face bits of the training again at no cost.  When I first assisted this was such a brilliant part of my development as a touch therapist. 

  • You can have support with any aspects of the courses that may not have fully landed with you the first time.

  • You gain experience of supporting the teaching process at BCMB.  Although this is not a ticket to an ‘assistant role’ on the teaching teams, it will of course be useful experience.

  • You get to be a practice body, and receive massage in the learning environment.

  • Be a fuller part of the BCMB ‘home team’ part of this specific team of volunteers and students. 

  • Travel, parking and lunch paid for. 


What would you be doing?


* Being a practice body for demo’s 

* Being a swap body for the students during the teaching sessions

* Helping with student support during the teaching sessions

* Generally joining in with all aspects of the teaching when you are there. 

* Helping out with domestics if needed, this will be very minimal.


What is the time commitment?


The teaching sessions are 10am - 2pm Mondays and Tuesdays every 2 weeks, from 4th of March 2025.


  • Minimum is ideally at least one regular 4 hours session a week or at least 2 sessions a week of no less that 2 hours.

  • Maximum - you are welcome to join for all the sessions on all the days.

  • There is no need to join for the APP sessions or Student Clinic's

  • We are recruiting a team, so we can work out who does what, once we have all the applications in, so we can be flexible, but we need a minimum commitment to create continuity for the students. 


Deadline: Midday Sunday February 16th 2025. To express an interest in this role please email sarahmclellan20@gmail.com and please put 'Volunteer Practice Body’ in the subject line. Please state why you're interested and include the following information in your email.
