Hani

Bali BISA Tutor

Hi my name is Hani
I am from Gianyar.
I graduated from the Bali Tourism Institute Bali, and joined the Spa industry 2007.  I was really lucky to be offered jobs in the Maldives and Turkey. These were both 5* hotels & Spa. This gave me an enormous amount of experience in hospitality and Spa Operations.  Working overseas gave me insights into different cultures, clients, meeting new friends from all over the world

I joined the Bali BISA team 2018 as a tutor. My favorite courses to teach are Lymphatic Drainage Massage and all the Holistic Courses.

It’s so interesting to give this treatment and teach the students. I love the benefits of the Lymphatic Drainage Massage as it is so powerful. I love to see the students faces when they start to understand what and why they are doing something for their clients. Especially when they see the benefits for themselves. Many of my students have gone to work in health & wellness facilities having completed this course.
