History
SOJHA was founded in 2013 by Eric Eisenmann nearly 18 years after an initial Japanese massage workshop. My goal is to produce the highest quality workshops combining traditional Japanese training protocol with modern day learning theory, creating amazing practitioners in the Japanese healing arts. It is my dream to continue teaching the knowledge handed down to me by an extraordinary lineage of Japanese masters. SOJHA is one of the only schools in the United States offering a program in Japanese massage. Melding the traditions of Japan with the modern science of learning and sprinkled with joy and humor, SOJHA has created one of the most intensive and effective programs of learning any modality in the massage world today.
