Teachers

Nephyr Jacobsen is the director, founder, and primary instructor at The Naga Center. Nephyr has been a massage therapist for over twenty years, and has been traveling to Thailand regularly for the past 14 years to study Thai bodywork, and more recently the larger umbrella of traditional Thai medicine. She is a research maven, dedicated to finding the authentic and in-depth information to pass on to her students.
Nephyr has studied with many teachers in Thailand, but counts Ajahn Pichest Boomthame and a Suklavastra Yogi as her primary guides in Thai bodywork and Thai medical theory respectively. She is endlessly grateful to these two teachers who have provided her with knowledge, challenges, the base of what is now her career, and most importantly, understanding to share and heal with.

 
 
From time to time The Naga Center will host an out of town teacher, often from Thailand. Erin Wright has been an integral part of The Naga Center for several years now and is wrapping up her teacher training apprenticeship.
