the new Interstate teaching collective
For out of state learners
Want to learn reflexology but don't have a reflexology school in your area? Now you can complete a reflexology training with a local clinical instructor* for your hands-on education and requirements to sit for the ARCB National exam -- and complete the rest of the Program online with Reflexology Academy NW in Tacoma WA (Pacific Time) or Barefoot Dragonfly in Austin Tx. (Central time)
*if a local clinical instructor is available in your area. Amy Kreydin (Barefoot Dragonfly) & I are just starting this Collective; we anticipate many participating Clinical Instructors nationwide within a short timeframe. Be sure to let us know of your interest so we can match you with an instructor in your area for hands-on training asap.
Inviting Reflexologists to teach -- just hands-on!
For those who’ve never taught but think you’d like to, this is a great opportunity for you to learn how to teach* and then be able to teach unencumbered by having to create an entire Program.
*1st Teacher Training Oct 10 & 11 in Tacoma, WA
For those who’ve taught but are not presently interested in teaching a whole Program, here’s a way you can put your skills to work and hone them without having to teach “the full Monty”.
You get to decide your training schedule, what you’ll charge the student(s), and the composition of your clinical instruction. That might include apprenticeship where part of your hands-on instruction would be having students join some of your client sessions, or it might consist purely of hands-on classroom instruction. Maybe you approach a local massage school and teach an intro class to drum up interest. You decide!
If you have two years of reflexology experience and are ARCB certified, let us know if you’re interested in participating in this new Collective.
First Teacher Training Oct. 10 & 11 in Tacoma, WA
Following a 2-day Finger-Free Reflexology class in Tacoma with David Wayte. If you were planning to travel the distance to catch David* the US, here’s a great opportunity to make additional use of your travel fees and time.
*As part of his West Coast tour, David is also teaching in Southern and Norther CA, so if you planned to take his Finger Free class there, you’d be close enough to Tacoma to make a fairly inexpensive and easy trip up the Coast. See the CE Classes tab for more information.
