"Just a testimony of the quality of education that you provide."

"Balancingtouch is more than a school; it’s a place where you find purpose and community."
Earlier this year, Balancingtouch collaborated with the University of the Western Cape to deliver courses on campus. These courses aimed to enhance the skills of university students and postgraduates, fostering greater success and career opportunities while refining their expertise in massage therapy.
The courses were tailored for students and professionals in disciplines such as Biokinetics, Sports Sciences, Human Movement Sciences, Coaching, Dietetics, and Physiotherapy.
In just one month, these talented individuals successfully leveraged their learning from Balancingtouch to launch new ventures and advance their careers.
