Level 2. Family bath master. 3-days practical training in Ireland

Date: 2023-11-13, 10:00
Organizer : Lithuanian Bath Academy

The intensive Level 2 course is designed for those who have already covered the essential topics of Level 1 and are convinced that they want to start working more deeply with each of their sauna clients .

During the course, we will teach you the two main techniques of a traditional steam bath:

1. The classic 2-sided body whisking
2. The natural body scrubs & beauty treatments
3. Creating bathing ritual for a small group 

These two techniques form the basis of our individual work with clients.On the last day, we will focus on conducting a complete holistic sauna treatment, paying attention to many essential nuances and learning how to work with a small group. This small group work accounts for almost 90% of all custom sauna treatments.

Themes covered

  After completing the  Course, the student also completes an important phase of the Bathhouse Master's Course and is sufficiently qualified to be the Bathhouse Owner of his/her family. He is entitled to receive the corresponding certificate after a test of his knowledge and practical skills.

  The basic skills of a family sauna bath attendant are body bathing and scrubbing in the sauna. The ability to do this shall be demonstrated and validated in a real hot sauna. The student's ability to perform the sauna procedures correctly is assessed by at least 2 professional LPA sauna practitioners with experience of teaching in the LPA programme. The assessments are made in the traditional sauna 6-point system by averaging the grades of different assessors.

  There is a fee for the assessment. Assessment of the credit - pass or fail.
