COURSE PROGRAM:
1st meeting: January 17–18, 2026
On the first weekend, we will begin with a short introduction to Thai massage and its history in the context of traditional Thai medicine. You will learn about the recommendations and contraindications for receiving massage or its individual techniques. We will work with breathing and show you its effects on the nervous system, health, and how we can use it during a massage. After the preparatory exercises, we will begin learning a full-body massage sequence with the massage recipient lying on their back.
2nd meeting: February 14–15, 2026
During the second weekend, we will provide space for questions and, if necessary, a review of selected topics from the previous meeting. We will then add new techniques and teach you how to turn the massage recipient onto their side and stomach, as well as how to work in these positions. We will also deepen our breathwork while giving and receiving massage. During these two days, we will also discuss the sense of body and working with it in terms of its energetics in the traditions of Thai, Chinese, Reiki, and anthroposophic medicine. We will also do related exercises to soothe the nervous system.

Werka Tyrpa
I am passionate about the flow state, psychosomatics, and the opportunities for personal development that awakening creativity offers. In therapeutic work, I value the power of gentleness, a sense of intuition, and being “here and now.” AcroYoga and Thai massage completely stole my heart in 2016. I began and continue practicing “Nuad Bo Rarn,” among others. at the Sunshine Network School: Traditional Thai Yoga Massage and Ayurvedic Bodywork, where I have been an assistant in the teacher training program since 2018. In 2021, I completed a full-time classical massage school with elements of physiotherapy. It was then that anthroposophical medicine, along with Eurythmy and a whole new universe of possibilities, knocked on my door. In 2023, I completed a two-year course with Michaela Schnur, an expert in anthroposophical care and treatment (IFAN).
During my internship in Thailand, I expanded my body and emotional work with such beautiful tools as Tok Sen, Guasha, and Chi Nei Tsang.
I share my love of movement and conscious touch through the AcroTribe project.

Piotr “Kiki” Szewczyk
I am a native of Krakow, and for years I have been in love with various sports, but also with nature. For many years, I was involved in Caribbean and contemporary dance. Then, I transferred my experience as a dance instructor to the mat to teach greater body awareness and healthy movement habits. In 2021, I stumbled upon my first dynamic vinyasa practice and immediately knew that this was it – if I could, I would spend most of my time on my hands 🙂 Since 2023, I have been teaching regular yoga classes. I also love learning new things, developing in various areas, and gaining new qualifications – currently, besides yoga, I am developing a passion for rock climbing, acroyoga, and Thai massage. Thai massage complements yoga exceptionally well, which is why I have become increasingly interested in it, practicing it, and furthering my education through various courses and workshops. I also enjoy utilizing experiences from various fields in my classes and in my own practice. When I’m not spending time in the gym, I escape into nature – preferably to the mountains or sailing. 2024 – Yoga Teacher Training Course, 200 hours (Yoga Alliance 200h RYTT)

Marysia Soltys
I am a trained nurse. After graduating, I began a further development path towards a holistic approach to health. I studied Reiki practice in India, where I also supported the organization of Reiki workshops for women. I then graduated from a Thai massage school near Chiang Mai, Thailand. I’m currently continuing my Thai massage and bodywork studies with Asia Kubiakowska (Sensib Bodywork) and Weronika Tyrpa, and I’m also studying Stems & Branches acupuncture under the supervision of Michał Richter.
For years, I’ve observed how mindful, multi-layered work with individuals can bring greater harmony, depth, and inner cohesion to life. That’s why this path has become my passion, and I’m constantly developing in these areas.
I value Thai massage most for its holistic, holistic approach. I appreciate that it has a very relaxing and soothing effect, but also strengthens and stimulates the life force within a person.
