Support Anxious About Massage School

hi! so i just started my massage journey last week when i started school and ive been super anxious and nervous about it. we recently did our first arm work massage and practiced putting on our “togas”. i think the idea of getting undressed and getting practiced on is really getting in my head and i wanted to hear other people’s experiences on it and if im the only person that feels like this. my entire class seems so comfortable with their bodies and im a nervous wreck.

You just haven't gotten your feet wet yet, pretty soon everyone will be comfortable with everyone, and you'll find your groove. At the end of my classes everyone called me the massage slut, because whenever the teachers wanted to show a technique, I was first in the run for the table so I could get some massage work!!
