Humble Beginnings

THE BEGINNING

Founded in 1987, the South Dakota School of Massage Therapy, Inc. (SDSMT) was set into motion by Robin Jensen, a 1977 graduate of the Boulder School of Massage Therapy. There she received 1,000 hours of instruction, as well as 600 hours of intensive training at the Boulder Center of Polarity Therapy. After Robin passed away in 2009, her husband, Dan Jensen continued school operations with pride and reverence. In the summer of 2018, the school was purchased with honor and fulfillment by former SDSMT graduate Rebecca Herrmann.

GROWTH

The school’s roots and origin were homegrown. It outgrew its cozy nest in the basement of the founder’s home after six years of flourishing. It remained across from the University of Sioux Falls on 22nd street for 29 years. Many amazing and beautiful improvements were made to that facility to be a comfortable learning environment. As of 2019 the school resides in one of the beautifully restored Historic South Dakota School for the Deaf buildings on the East side of Sioux Falls, SD.

Philosophy

SDSMT is a place for students to grow, learn and expand awareness. The school’s philosophy is centered on the concept of the one-room schoolhouse: a holistic approach to learning in an environment which stresses basic core values and promotes development of a sense of who we are. Class size is limited to allow for individualized instruction. Each class bonds as a group by taking all classes together in sequence. This creates a sense of community necessary for personal growth, an important component of the program.

Mission

SDSMT is dedicated to providing a strong foundation which will enable graduates to successfully pursue a career in massage therapy. The school is committed to the professional and personal growth of each person, to enhance the well-being and sense of satisfaction in his/her life. In order to provide the best possible overall experience, the program is dedicated to ongoing self-evaluation, improvement of the school, its faculty and curriculum.
