    The lived body breathing and moving is in accordance with the holism of self.

    Dr Felicity Molloy (PhD I MEd I GDHE I MANZ Te Rōpū Kaitiaki – Executive, RMT L6 I YogaNZ Senior Level 4 1000h I REPs) maintains a professional profile that extends practice to teaching across massage and somatic bodywork, dance, and yoga. I approach education for professional massage from an extensive range of skills and experience in holistic health study, clinical practice, programme design and course writing, teaching and mentorship, and belonging to the professional association. I am actively involved in the NZCCM community through my role as Academic Quality Manager deeply involved with quality assurance – moderation, evaluation, compliance, and hybrid delivery implementation. I have taken sabbatical from my other community projects – including massage clinical practice, yoga teaching and teaching dance to older adults for their wellbeing.

  • Trina Bergloff (BSc, Dip. Therapeutic Massage)
    Blending the art of healing body modalities and a strong science background successfully in the clinic setting.

    I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Washington, in America, in addition I have trained extensively as a massage therapist, reflexologist and hypnotherapist. Through my practitioner years I’ve seen first-hand the mind body connection and how these create healing and wellbeing within a person. My comprehensive adult education training has given me the ability to share my knowledge with students and foster a passion for learning within them. As an educator, watching students grow and learn provides me with a sense of joy to be dedicated to. In addition to further study within the massage and hypnotherapy realms I live in the beautiful sunny Hawke’s Bay with my three dogs and happily work as a tutor for NZCCM and conduct healing sessions in my clinic setting.
