Student Success Partnership — Performance Mentoring Group

Holistic Massage Training Institute partners with P.E.R.F.O.R.M.A.N.C.E. Mentoring Group LLC. (PMG) to help students succeed not only in the classroom, but in life. Completing massage therapy school requires more than learning technical skills. Students may face personal, emotional, financial, housing, family, or other life challenges that can make it difficult to remain focused and complete their education.

PMG provides an additional layer of mentoring, life-skills development, support groups, resource navigation, and connection to behavioral health services for students who need and qualify for additional support.

Support may include:

  • One-on-one mentoring and emotional support
  • Life-skills and independent-living development
  • Goal setting, accountability, and problem-solving
  • Stress management and emotional regulation
  • Support groups and peer connection
  • Housing and community-resource navigation
  • Employment readiness and professional development
  • Budgeting, organization, communication, and time-management skills
  • Behavioral and mental health referrals when appropriate
  • Connections to additional community services and resources

The goal of this partnership is to identify and help remove barriers that could interfere with a student’s education, improve student engagement and retention, and prepare students for independence and long-term career success.

Preparing Students for Life After Graduation

We believe graduation should represent more than completing 810 hours of training. Students should leave prepared to manage the responsibilities that come with building a career and creating stability in their lives.

Through the PMG partnership, students can receive support throughout their educational journey while developing the confidence, resilience, life skills, and community connections needed for their next chapter.
