Words from Our Students

When I came to Ke Kino, I was at a major crossroads in my career and personal life

and felt very stuck. I knew I needed healing, but I didn’t know how. The amount of

support I received—both personally and professionally—was so surprising and special.

The community here truly feels like one big family.


Ke Kino is a journey of personal growth. The amount of healing you experience

depends on you, but the support is always there. You are the star of your own journey,

and when you step into that space of growth, you’ll walk out an entirely new person in

the best way possible.

KIND WORDS FROM OUR STUDENTS

When I came to Ke Kino, I was at a major crossroads in my career and personal life

and felt very stuck. I knew I needed healing, but I didn’t know how. The amount of

support I received—both personally and professionally—was so surprising and special.

The community here truly feels like one big family.

Ke Kino is a journey of personal growth. The amount of healing you experience

depends on you, but the support is always there. You are the star of your own journey,

and when you step into that space of growth, you’ll walk out an entirely new person in

the best way possible.

If you're considering massage therapy school and feel drawn to Ke Kino, trust that

feeling. This is not your typical school—it’s a place of deep healing and transformation.

We welcome you with open arms, but we also challenge you to show up for yourself.

The more you give to this experience, the more you will grow.

HERE’S WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

Before Ke Kino, I struggled to find a place where I felt truly seen. I came from a broken

home, and for much of my life, I felt like an outsider. Finding Ke Kino changed that.

Here, I was not only welcomed but encouraged to embrace my authentic self and use

my gifts. That level of acceptance and support is something I will always carry with me.


The [Bridge] Program and my time at Ke Kino have shaped my understanding of

healing far beyond the classroom. It’s not just about knowledge—it’s about wisdom,

application, and discovering your own future through hands-on experience. I don’t know

if I would even be in massage therapy today without Ke Kino.


This place has been my guide and my foundation.

HERE’S WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

My time at Ke Kino—school, internship, and advanced training—has been truly metamorphic. The program goes beyond learning; it’s about applying knowledge and transforming through experience.


The emphasis on healing touch is unique, and the ability to care for others while also caring for ourselves is a powerful lesson. Massage

therapy is not a luxury—it’s a cornerstone of health and well-being.

The
Ke Kino 
Difference

Theory Meets Practice: Where Learning Comes to Life

Ke Kino is a school and a working clinic. Our building is home to both the massage school and an active massage clinic, giving students the unique opportunity to see business best practices in action. This integration of theory and practice helps you learn not just how to deliver exceptional bodywork but also how to navigate the real-world demands of running a successful practice.

A Journey of Transformation

Your time at Ke Kino is about more than mastering skills. It’s about becoming. You’ll leave with the tools, confidence, and clarity to step into your role as a massage therapist and a healer. The process will challenge you, inspire you, and prepare you for a future filled with purpose.

Your journey at Ke Kino is of course centered around your education. We also create an experience that shapes you as both a healer and a human.

From the moment you step into our space, you become part of a community of growth—where learning happens in the classroom, the clinic, and within yourself. Every course, every practice session, and every conversation is an opportunity to refine your skills, strengthen your intuition, and deepen your understanding of the body’s wisdom.

 

What to expect

  • Hands-on Learning, Every Step of the Way
    From day one, you’ll practice real techniques under expert guidance, learning not just how to support healing through massage therapy, but how to listen. Ke Kino’s approach ensures you train with purpose—whether you’re studying anatomy, working on your first client, or refining advanced techniques.

  • A School That Works Like a Clinic
    Because Ke Kino operates a full-service clinic, you’ll experience firsthand what it means to be a practitioner. You’ll observe professional therapists, see client relationships in action, and gain insight into the business side of massage therapy.

  • Growth Beyond the Table
    Massage therapy isn’t just about what your hands do—it’s about who you are. Throughout your training, you’ll be encouraged to explore the personal transformation that comes with this work. You’ll learn to hold space for others while also building the resilience, presence, and confidence that define a skilled therapist.

  • A Path to Your Future
    We know that stepping into your career can feel overwhelming. That’s why Ke Kino is committed to supporting your transition from student to professional. Our business training, mentorship, and bridge program ensure that when you graduate, you’re not just licensed—you’re prepared.
