CURRICULUM A diverse group of carefully chosen and highly trained practitioners and instructors will offer 100 hours of coursework. Classes Freeing the Power to Heal: The Foundation Workshop In this class, we begin to recognize and release what stands between us and full access to healing for ourselves and those around us. We distinguish between our automatic defense mechanisms that we have previously thought of as our Selves, and the authentic Self from which everything unfolds naturally, with grace and ease. Energetic Alignment In this class students discover physical ease in their body while supporting the energetic alignment with ground and center for themselves and the client. Students are encouraged to notice the direct correlation between proper body mechanics and the increasing effectiveness of massage and bodywork. Energetic Rapport This course teaches skills for extending to clients a sacred yet practical space that meets them where they are and supports their healing. Energy In Action Students discover how their systems recognize energy. This class teaches specific holds, and students experiment with additional hand placements. Students are supported in the experience of centering and alignment, optimizing energy flow. They also explore dynamics of intuition and energy in relation to massage therapy. Essential Oils/Aromatherapy: Raindrop Technique Students learn a powerful, non-invasive tool for bringing structural and electrical alignment to the body through the power of essential oils. Transformational Bodywork This class is designed to support the student in discovering a whole new realm of bodywork which allows transformation for both the client and therapist. Students become aware that the more ease/peace they experience while giving massage, the greater the difference for the client. Visions Students have the opportunity to discover their authentic Self and reveal a commitment which supports continued transformation for themselves and those around them. Documented Individual Bodywork Sessions Students receive feedback from the 7 hours of documented bodywork sessions that they give independent of classroom hours. They practice the various techniques learned during the program and gain confidence in the skills acquired. Staff will review documentation of the bodywork sessions and provide feedback to students. Instructor Feedback Students give a total of 5 bodywork sessions to one or more staff members in order to receive specific feedback regarding what they are learning during the Transformational Bodywork Course. These 5 sessions will occur throughout the Course. Schedules
