Course Description:
Somatic Mindfulness workshops (Connection, Grounding, Expansion & Radiance) expose the massage therapist to tragerwork and mindfulness-based skills that potentiate their therapeutic efficacy. Application of the techniques stimulates the brain's neuroplasticity, introduces new neural sensory information, and activates positive neuromuscular changes in clients. Inherent to the method is support to the therapist's own self-care which ensures career longevity. In Connection the body's sense of interrelation is explored from handles around several body planes and angles. Each workshop is self-contained and there are no prerequisites to take each of the themes.
What to bring:
Wear comfortable clothes (yoga/gym). Bring sheets and a small towel and/or small cushion/pillow.
REVIEWS:
"The big takeaway is that after 19 years of practicing bodywork, my enthusiasm is renewed and that’s HUGE! If folks like me don’t burn out, thinks of all the healing that can be transmitted through the accumulated skill and experience."
"Fernando is warm and loving and his work is definitely a beautiful art. It's like feeling "free" Thank you!"
"It’s working! I’m working my usual amount and feeling less fatigued. Yay! Even considering adding some more sessions to my week. I’m enjoying playing with all sorts of handles and finding benefit in the compressions in particular. So easy!"
"One of the greatest things about MASSAGE is there is no end to learning. There are countless modalities/methods for healing with our hands. This is an elegant and gentle system of bodywork that accesses the subconscious and works with the nervous system to allow shifts into freedom, letting go and deep relaxation."
"It was a wonderful learning experience - every second of it. Thank you so much for the thoughtful, warm presence you brought to the classroom. I’m excited heading into work to see what the universe whispers today with my clients."
"What a fabulous fun class! Fernando created a super environment to learn and play; the perfect mix of tools to take away. I loved time practicing on the table - highly recommended!"
"This course is especially fun for anyone open to a "different" experience and to provide a "different" experience to their clients. This is because, unlike most "techniques", this is a "technique" that will complement massage, but it is unlike the technique/skills taught/learned in massage. Thank you Fernando!"
