New Class Structure!!!
Workshop weekends are now open registration! Classic 1, 2 & Intermediate Bodywork Classes ~ 1-3 Weekends, 20-60 NCTMB CEU's. This means, there is no longer a need to take one weekend before another. The classes are now rounded out to accommodate students varying interest and scheduling. These courses are open to all Yoga, Reiki, Relaxation practitioners, Massage Therapists, Nurses, Health Care workers, educators and the general public who have a healthy desire to learn how to meet some one where they are and to physically assist in another's restorative practice of self care and well being. Attendees receive Nationally Certified Continuing Education hours, whether to work privately, by improving their current practices, as well as those simply wanting to provide comfort to their families and friends, which can also develop into a part time or full time practice. |
~No experience is necessary to start in any one weekend.
~Taking them in order is recommended for beginners, as to sequentially build upon the previous information and practice. ~The workshops can be taken out of order for those willing and able to accept the light and added challenge of receiving the information in a non-linear way, which can be a great lesson in creativity! *If you have experience or a certificate of training at another school, need CEU's and or would like to discuss continuing education with our programs, contact Sarah directly. |
