The course:

Voyage International Beauty introduces you to the wellness world so that you may later provide each guest with a world of wellness.

For the first time, a support system for spa therapists is boarding a superyacht, as you may have heard.

Being a stomatologist and stewardess, I believed there to be a lack of guidance and support for therapists working on yachts because it differs from being on land or a cruise ship from experience and guidance I knew there was a shortage in the industry.

Voyage has created the Superyacht Transition Course for Health and Skincare Therapists, Somatologists, and Cosmetologists with input from professionals in the field.

With the help of this course, you will learn how to work as a spa therapist aboard a yacht, including how to manage a dual role, and learn about the requirements and expectations of the role.
