New name. New look. Same great bodywork education. Same staff and owners. Nothing else changed, just the name and logo. And there is no hidden agenda here. The school is not being prepared for some unspoken future, like being sold to a corporation. We are still, and will continue to be, an independent, artisan school of fine massage and healing.
Why did we do it? There are some practical reasons, of course. Since Dr. Scherer passed away in 1990, and since more regulations have come into being for massage schools, the school’s curriculum has gradually devoted less time to naturopathic methods, and more to massage. The Santa Fe School of Massage. It’s clearer now, where we are and what we do. We still love our Scherer heritage; the Scherer grad community is alive and well and always will be. Somehow, it was just time.
Welcome to the Santa Fe School of Massage.

I think your second paragraph above says it best. I wholeheartedly approve of the change, as it more precisely reflects what the school is about. Kudos for bringing the name into alignment with the mission. I will always love the Jay Scherer stories, and heritage. And I am grateful that we can build on that by moving into the future, rather than staying in the past.

Comment by Marsha Heller June 22, 2011 @ 3:53 pmI think the new name is terrific and Dr. Jay would approve. I am still a working Therapist, and believe that my love of this art of massage was inspired by my teachers. I have worked and adapted to many forms of massage, and the newer venues such as spa work. Without the good foundation that this school offers, I would not be the person I am today. Blessing to all.
