I took Women's basic carpentry in 2023 and The Permaculture and Earthskills immersion in 2020 and…read moreloved them both. The classroom spaces are all outdoors and really beautiful. The students are diverse in age and background which makes for an amazing learning environment because you get to learn alongside many different perspectives. I learned so much and have been able to fix stuff in my house, install and build things with confidence, and grow lots of food since taking my classes. Overall, I just feel more capable after taking these classes.

I recently took the Hide Tanning class at Wild Abundance…read more I had no problem finding the school. I had written directions with me in case GPS was not accurate. My iphone took me right where I needed to be, even after I left the paved road. The dirt road was no problem for a regular car, 4x4 is not necessary. I found the staff to be helpful and engaging both prior to my class and while on site at the school. Email and text were answered within a day. Hannah was extremely helpful, answering all my numerous and crazy questions both before and after I registered. (Including tech help as I am not a computer person) Natalie is a most generous teacher sharing her knowledge and experience. I look forward to being her student again. WIld Abundance is an outdoor school, not a square building made of steel and glass. I camped on site and there is an outdoor kitchen for everyones use. I loved every minute of my time there.

The best massage school out there, they teach anatomy and physiology to lay a foundation for…read morebodywork to deliver on its most basic promise; do no harm! The in-depth anatomy goes hand in hand with technical (hands-on) massage coursework as well as introductions to various modalities of massage, business, ethics, law-everything that is required by the board. As a massage therapist if you're not willing to learn anatomy, you aren't dedicated to the profession, period. I got everything I wanted and more out of a massage school education, and I graduated as a confident and competent body worker and didn't need extra prep for the MBLEX because of their great coursework. Love them!!

CE's are excellent here! I want to shout out Darren Cadwell. I attended the most recent…read moreneuromuscular therapy workshop for treating head and neck pain and the first day was lecture, a very engaging and fun class jam packed with information. The second day, humorously, I woke up doubled over in a migraine on the day of the hands-on portion and I tried to overcome it and make it to class but I absolutely could not. I just assumed that I would have to retake it the next round and resigned myself to staying home... instead I received a compassionate email with well wishes and inquiring about when to make up the hours! I thought that was very nice and demonstrates a lot of humanity ~ excited to continue my NMT education

I have done a total of 60 hours of his Thai Training and I want more! We are so blessed to have him locally, and even if we didn't I would travel.

Michael has such a warm and sweet energy to share and in all three weekends I attended he created a comfortable and safe environment for all of his students to learn and practice this work. I have weaved the Thai bodywork into my work as a yoga teacher and over the last year have doubled my private income from offering this therapy. As a yoga teacher, it allows a deeper connection with my students as I have a better understanding of how to improve my assists in restorative postures, so this course is wonderful for yoga teachers, as well as massage therapists. My clients love the Thai bodywork that I work into my yoga privates, and often come back to see my solely for Thai yoga therapy. I have evolved as a teacher and healer through taking this course. Thank you Michael for your gifts you so openly share!

I started at Asheville Catholic as a pre-ker (it was called ACCS, Asheville Catholic Community…read moreSchool, at the time) and graduated 8th grade in 1996. The school helped me form good study habits, encouraged me to achieve my highest potential, and provided me with a supportive community. ACS gave me the foundation I needed to get into a great private high school and eventually excel in college. The relationships I established at ACS have survived the test of time. I am still friends with many of the kids I went to 1st grade with! One of the most important things ACS taught me was to not fear my teachers. I quickly learned how much teachers want to help, and how much they can help. I loved my teachers, many of whom are still there today. Clearly, they love what they do. Asheville has some wonderful Public schools, but Asheville Catholic is a fantastic alternative for parents seeking more than just a school. ACS offers a vibrant, nurturing community.
