Black Brook School of Massage provides exceptional education

We are a bit different than any other massage school in Arkansas.

As a student you will enjoy a progressive curriculum available on a regular schedule.  All of our classes have a beginning date and an ending date.  This provides a spiral learning opportunity where the class builds from simple to complex.  We excel at the advanced classes and we are only able to accomplish these because each group advances together. In addition, because you will grow as a group it is possible you may form a strong bonds with your classmates and have friends for life.

Black Brook School of Massage offers you the most up-to-date information in massage, anatomy and business. We strive to consistently have Arkansas's best first time pass-rate on the national licensing exam.

After graduation you should be prepared to work in any environment you choose, whether its a spa, destination resort, chiropractic office, sporting event, or even hospital.  Though many of our graduates may find working for someone else the way to begin after completing school, others finish and are ready to open their own business.

After  you've passed your licensing test, it's up to you.  The job of the Black Brook School is to prepare you to be able to help others in an ethical, intelligent, therapeutic and compassionate way in the shortest time possible. We help all of our students find a position that suits them even before they graduate.  In our last graduating class 3/4 of the students knew where they were going to work after they got their license.

Massage is one of the fastest growing professions in Northwest Arkansas and there are no shortage of positions.  Where do you want to work?  What kind of client do you want to work with?

At the Black Brook School, we are a community of instructors who teach different portions of our 500-hour class and all of our major instructors have over 10 years of experience in the massage and bodywork industry.  We have a variety of skills and real world experiences and we can show you what to do, but we can also tell you why and when and how to change it if you need to.

  The instructors at the Black Brook School knows their stuff and we are passionate about sharing it with our students.

As long time therapists and business owners in Fayetteville, Springdale, Bentonville and Rogers, we know what the clients and employers need in this area. We know massage in Northwest Arkansas.  Our classes offer a foundation of Deep Swedish and orthopedic massage training with additional classes in advanced techniques and the Black Brook school's mission is to provide students with the best education possible so any of our students can land the job they want.  Wherever that job may be.

I wanted to become a massage therapist for many years but all the schools around town weren’t meeting my expectations. I came across Black Brook School of Massage and I am so grateful that I did because every weekend I am amazed and reminded of why I picked it. Brenda and her team are invaluable and I know I am getting the best education around.

The teachers of Black Brook School of Massage have thoughtfully created an innovative and safe learning environment. Years of experience and education are provided alongside gentle guidance and cutting-edge massage techniques and instruction. The same love and care that built the school is devoted to every student, producing supportive, family-like classes and the finest massage therapists in today’s industry. I’m very blessed to be a part of this elite school and highly recommended Black Brook to anyone looking for a top notch education in massage therapy.
