Mind-Body

Basic Jin Shin Do®(C308)

$1,040

with Steve Sommers

Calendar Mar 21, 2025 at 8 am

CE Credits: 40 Hours

Cost: $1040 ($1085 if registering within 7 days of class)

This is a 2 weekend course of 6 days: March 21-22-23 and April 25-26-27, 2025. Students must attend all days of the workshop for credits.

Jin Shin Do® can help to relieve tension and stress, reduce pain and discomfort, reestablish the balance of energy between body and mind, and increase client self-awareness. It promotes a pleasant trance state in which the client can move out of the head and into the body, to access creative self-healing and release stagnant energy and stress patterns.

Jin Shin Do® combines gentle yet deep finger pressure on acupoints with body focusing techniques to facilitate the release of physical and emotional tensions and armoring.

The class will cover release methods for 32 points of common stress, tension, and pain, introduction to body-focusing, segmental release using 45 Jin Shin Do® points and the bodymind associations of the segments, master and couple points, and using contact statements and tracking. It will also include strange flow theory and basic release patterns, and how to combine strange flows with the segments.

What to Bring: Sheets/Blanket & face cradle cover for each day.  Massage tables will be provided. A lunch break will be taken each day.

Unwind, Rock and Move (C500)

$340

with Teresa Greene

Calendar Apr 12, 2025 at 9 am

CE Credits: 13 Hours

Cost: $340 ($385 if registering within 7 days of class)

Unwind, Rock and Move is the methodology in which I now work with my massage clients and was created by first working with myself in pursuit of healing mind, body and spirit over many years.

Unwind, Rock and Move is fully clothed, slow bodywork.  This class is mostly hands-on with some discussion.  There are no prerequisites for this class.

It is my belief that our bodies were made to heal naturally when given the space and freedom to do so. When we slow down, make connection to the spirit within us and move where that spirit leads, we find freedom and fluidity.  This fluidity encourages good health and balance (homeostasis)to our overall wellbeing….and isn’t that what every human needs!

I look forward to sharing how I work with each of you!

Wear shorts, yoga pants or moveable materials that allow your body to naturally bend and move.  Please bring a large blanket that you can place in the floor, 1 blanket to place over you and 2 regular size pillows for Day 1 and a set of sheets/blanket/face cradle cover for Day 2.

There is an Unwind, Rock and Move- Level 2 that is unclothed bodywork and this class is a prerequisite.

A lunch break will be taken midday; you may bring your lunch, or eat at one of the many restaurants located nearby.

Contact Teresa Greene at 615-370-9794 if you have additional questions.

Payment plan available: $114 deposit plus 2 payments of $75.33, paid every four weeks. Final payment of $75.34.
