So inspired after looking through the photos and videos from the PA Massage Championship this weekend! What an incredible event that truly showcases the passion, talent, and dedication within our massage community. It’s always amazing to see so many professionals and students come together to learn, grow, and support one another.

I am beyond proud of all the HACC graduates and students who participated. It takes courage to step outside your comfort zone and share your skills on that kind of stage—and that alone is a huge win.

A special congratulations to Amber Goshorn, Josh Green, and Gabbi Nimala for earning medals and representing HACC so well—your hard work and commitment really shine!

But medals or not, every single person who showed up, participated, and gave it their all is a winner. This experience is about growth, connection, and striving to be better—and each of you did just that.

Well done to everyone involved—you make our community stronger!
