continuing education & intro classes

Finger Free Reflexology delivers a firm and authoritative treatment without risking strain to finger and thumbs.  

On Saturday, learn the classic Finger Free techniques. On Sunday, more classic technique & "Finger Free Blast’ – a powerful and invigorating sequence that gets delivered in 15–20 minutes (the time that Eunice Ingham suggested for a session). 

     This is the first time David is teaching his highly acclaimed Finger Free Reflexology in the US. Places are limited to ensure good teacher/student ratio, so booking early to avoid disappointment is advised.   Booking available at Learn Finger Free Reflexology 

or with a deposit check to me.

 $325 with Early bird discount,

     David is also teaching in Santa Monica & Santa Rosa. See David's website for dates.

Reflexology Academy NW (RANW) in Tacoma WA is just 18 miles from SeaTac airport; 10 minutes off the north/south I-5 highway; 1 mile off the East/West Hwy 512.  And just 4 miles from the Amtrak train station.

It's a relatively short drive to the magnificent, glacier-laden Mt, Tahoma (otherwise known as Mt. Rainier) -- the most glaciated mountain in the continental US.. Even easy day hikes provide breath-taking views of the mountain, its waterfalls, and its wildflowers & other flora. (The Pacific Crest Trail is also nearby.) 

Kayaking is also available year-round, and skiing in Winter.

Spring through October typically brings sun and moderate temperatures.  Even in the winter our Pacific NW skies can be bright. In nearly 30 years of living here, I have opened an umbrella less than 30 times.    

For those coming from out of state, there are airbnb accmmodations fairly close to the classes.

For David Wayte's class -- held at Alexandar Massage School on 40th St. & Pacific Avenue in Tacoma -- a 

graduate of my Program has a nearby furnished home available  on Airbnb ( 2 BR). Contact Francesca@ArtemisiaHealingArts.org 

For more Airbnb prospects in the area, especially if you are driving to the class, you can check Tacoma, University Place, Gig Harbor, Ruston, and the Proctor District.

 ADDING A NEW DIMENSION TO REFLEXOLOGY

"We have longitudinal zones, transverse zones and coronal zones to access reflex points in the body. It is in this third key area that I have concentrated my efforts since 1999 and developed the method known as Coronal Zone Reflex Therapy™. Working in this plane allows therapists access deeper inside the ‘core’ of the body, releasing the patient from longstanding stagnation." 

 If you can picture the analogy of splitting someone down the middle (along the midline) and then opening them up like a travelling chest into two equal halves, you would then have access to the core of the body and be able to work back through the organs to the patient’s external frame, e.g. arms, ribs, hips, etc. "

This is light touch work.

For those who'd like to teach -- but not a whole Program.  Learn to teach just hands-on.

Then you can be a Hands-On Instructor to teach in your area where there's no reflexology school.  This is a brand new model of teaching called the Interstate Teaching Collaborative. Didactic coursework required for ARCB certification will be taught online along with students enrolled in a Program.  The Hands-On Instructors (YOU!) will teach just the hands-on ARCB requirements 

    As a Hands-On Instructor, you  decide your training schedule, what you’ll charge the student(s), and whether your instruction will be all ''classroom" or part or all apprenticeship where your hands-on instruction might mean students join some of your client sessions. Maybe you approach a local massage school to teach an intro class to drum up interest in Reflexology Certification!
