But don’t just take my word for it. Here’s what some of my 150+ previous students say about their learning experience.
Shawn’s Thai Mat course was amazing and in depth, as an instructor myself I can imagine how great being in a classroom with him would be. The course material was in depth, easy to understand and Shawne was available at all times to answer any question or assist with deeper understanding of the course content.

Course Overview
This course was founded as an all-in-one method to learning Thai Yoga Massage without having to commit to a schedule that might get in the way of work, school, etc.
This program shifts the ancient art of Thai Yoga Massage from its traditional floor work onto the massage table.
This technique allows the massage to intermingle with any other bodywork or to perform on its own practitioners can create individualised healing experiences by blending gentle stretching, acupressure and breath work in a rhythmic dance.
In order to make the course extremely easy to learn no matter your skill level, we broke it down into 4 DOJOs (Modules) that’ll focus on one general topic at a time. These modules cover the following:
✅ Indications and contraindications
✅Origins and traditional methods
✅ Northern energy model
✅ Body Mechanics
✅ Supine, Prone, Side and Sitting transitions
✅ Advantages and disadvantages to table work
✅ Listening to the body
✅ Breath coaching
✅ 90 Thai massage positions
Breaking Down The Modules
In each DOJO, you’ll be learning separate topics. Here’s the breakdown:

Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Shawne Klassen, a registered massage therapist practicing in Alberta, Canada, for 26 years.
My introduction to Thai Yoga Massage was 25 years ago. After a 5 years stint as an RMT, I was dissatisfied and longed to expand my skillset.
My search took me to Thailand, and a life-changing journey started. I arrived in Bangkok and later moved to Chiang Mai in my quest for a guru that would teach me Thai Yoga Massage.
Thailand was full of pleasant and unpleasant surprises. From old men wanting me to marry their daughters to initially being a laughing stock among my colleagues and teachers.
I studied under Thai Massage masters at the Wan Dee School of Ancient Massage, Lek Chaia Massage School, and completed my internship at the Old Medicine Hospital in Chiang Mai.
I also studied at Wat Pho in Bangkok under Mr. Jan, a renowned and only living master who teaches the healing art of “Burmese style” massage.
I gained immense knowledge and took it back home to Canada. There, I started practicing Thai Yoga Massage and saw a tremendous response from my clients.
A few years later, I decided to spread this wealth of knowledge and started teaching Thai Yoga Massage.
My studies, retreats, and long experience as a practitioner and trainer have made me proficient in the mental and physical techniques of Thai therapy. It also gave me profound understanding of spiritual aspects.
In this course, I share my invaluable knowledge that I gathered over a lifetime. My generous approach to teaching would ensure you get the most out of every lesson.
Looking forward to seeing you inside.
