Online courses by expert instructors. In-person retreats in Hawaii and the Coachella Valley. Free instruction for everyone.
Our Rancho Mirage school location closed on March 29th, 2026 — and a bright new era has begun! Somatherapy School of Massage is now focused on online enrichment courses and inspiring instructional retreats in the Coachella Valley and Hawaii. While we no longer offer coursework for credit toward CAMTC certification, we will offer a rich selection of courses awarding certificates of completion and competence. Transcripts remain available here on this site and directly through BPPE.
