Contact: Ariela at arielagrodner@yahoo.com \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\nDescription:\nThis three month training consists of the fundamentals and basic requirements one would need to offer a beautiful Thai Massage session either on the table or mat.\nAriela has designed a program to inspire bodyworkers in today’s field to learn some of the ancient techniques of India and Thailand in an applicable fashion that is easily navigated on a massage table or Thai Massage mat.\nIn Thai-Massage the number three is considered auspicious. It is the first number in nature to create a shape and therefore holds a strong foundation. Ariela put together a series of three classes which she believes will create a foundation and inspire students to really thrive in this field. \nThe first weekend that we meet will be a one hour sequence that can be applied either on the mat or a floor. This will allow students to feel confident to work on their future clients in the art of Thai Massage. After a month we will meet again and look more in depth at the artistry of Thai Massage and develop intuition in our work. The last weekend will be a weekend dedicated to the feet\, which can also be added to the first two weekends as a session for those wanting a longer massage. Learning the foot sequence makes it very easy to give a one and a half to three hour Thai-Massage if ever needed. It also stands on its own as a full hour treatment for the feet alone. \n1-Introduction to Thai Massage :Mat or Table\n2-Exploring Heaven and: Earth the Artistry of Thai Massage\n3-Thai Foot Reflexology \nAll classes are both Florida and Nationally approved for by NCBTMB\nStudents will receive a certificate of completion after each weekend for the hours attended. For those completing all three weekends and completing the full training\, they will receive a certificate of completion documenting all three classes and a memento of their hard work they may want to hang on the wall of their office space to present their accomplishments.

If students complete all six courses they will receive a Certification in Orthopedic and Sports Massage. \nOur 96 hour\, six course certification will help our students gain a deeper understanding of soft tissue injuries\, how to treat them and what causes them.

SUMMARY:Biodynamic Cranial Approach ~ Touch of Presence® Introductory Course
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Giorgia Milne \nTime: 9AM-6PM (with 90-minute lunch)\nWorkshop Price: $600 for new students / $300 to repeat if registered and paid by Dec 31\, 2025; $650/$325 starting January 1\, 2026\nLocation: Gainesville Retreat Center\nCE Hours: 24 Florida and NCBTMB \n  \nSuggested Reading: \nAn Osteopathic Odyssey by James Jealous\nRadical Wholeness: The Embodied Present and the Ordinary Grace of Being by Philip Shepherd\nEngaging the Movment of Life by Bonnie Gintis\nInterface by R. Paul Lee\nStillness by Charles Ridley \nStudents will need to bring a massage table\, 2 flat sheets\, two pillows\, and a blanket. \nTo Register: Visit https://www.touchofpresence.com/courses-schedule-registration \nClasses will take place at the Gainesville Retreat Center \nThis course is an introduction to the Biodynamic Craniosacral Approach\, which can be offered as a pure hands-on practice\, or incorporated as a primary disposition that integrates and informs any other modality\, as well as daily life. It is followed by a deeper dive opportunity in the form the Intensive Course which spans four 4-day weekends over the course of 1 year. \nThe Biodynamic Cranial Approach Introduction allows students to learn directly through felt-sense-experience by feelingly inhabiting the inner body space.  Rather than focusing on an outside-in model of learning (like focusing on craniosacral anatomy or treatment protocols) this course allows students to learn directly via supervised session exchanges and group discussions.  Embodiment and centering practices lay the foundation for the work\, and the “teaching” comes from the “inside-out” via the students’ direct experiences. \nDuring the Introduction Course students learn to touch from a grounded sense of present awareness in a way that is non-efferent (meaning ‘I don’t leave here to go over there’)\, non-doing (being practice\, not doing practice)\, and in tonal resonance with primary respiration and the natural inherent Health and Wisdom of the body. Great care and emphasis are made to cease all efferent activity and intervention\, encouraging students to stay with the feeling-tone (or felt-sense) of what is\, as it is.  Without the symptom-treatment overlay\, students rest in silence\, stillness\, and their natural state of presence and being to directly access primary respiration in their inner bodies.  This approach & teaching method mirror one of the instructions of Dr. William Sutherland – to “trust the tide”.  By allowing the inherent physiological forces within to guide the sessions and the learning\, the natural world and the Breath of Life begin to reveal themselves. \nThis course is Open to anyone wishing to develop personally or to investigate pursuing a committed professional track.  The Introductory Course is for all health practitioners\, psychotherapists\, movement therapists\, and bodyworkers new to cranial work.  It is required for all craniosacral practitioners or other biodynamic practitioners who wish to learn more about the type of biodynamics we teach before undertaking a committed yearlong study of Biodynamic Cranial Approach ~ Touch of Presence® Intensive. \nThis Introduction Course is the required prerequisite for the Biodynamic Cranial Approach Intensive — the year long immersion in this approach. For more information\, visit the Biodynamic Cranial Approach ~ Touch of Presence® Intensive Certification page. \nGo to https://www.touchofpresence.com/courses-schedule-registration to register\nQuestions?
