Do I have to be a Rolfer
to take your classes? |
|
No. Many types of body workers and
massage therapists have taken and benefited from the classes,
particularly the Visceral classes, including Acupuncturists, Cranial
Sacral Therapists and Body Centered Psychotherapists. Many of the
Biomechanics classes are more oriented toward
structural integration but both physical therapists and deep tissue
and sports massage therapists have taken and appreciated the
information and techniques presented. Please e-mail
us if you are wondering if these classes are right for you. |

Ca
Can
I take the biomechanics classes in any order or take the Level Two
Visceral Classes before I’ve taken the Level One. |
|
The Biomechanics Classes have to be
taken in order starting with the class on the pelvis, then legs and
arms, then shoulder girdle & thorax and finally spine and
neck. The joint motility class can be taken at any time. These
classes can be taken in any of the locations they are offered.
For the Visceral Classes, the Level One class has to be taken before
any of the Level Two classes. The Level Two A class,
"Review of Level One," has to be taken before any of the
other Level Two classes. But, Level Two B, C, & D can be
taken in any order. Repeating the Level One class can
substitute for taking Level Two A. |

If I ever took a class
from you – no matter how many years ago – am I considered a
“returning student” and am I entitled to the 50% discount? |
|
Because repeating a class is such a good
way to truly learn the information, Liz offers significant discounts
for returning students. The Biomechanics classes, (Previously
called, Solving Problems and Resolving Pain)
have evolved over the years. It can be a little complicated and
confusing to figure out exactly which classes are repetitions of
earlier classes. If it has been more than five years since you took
a Biomechanics class, a 50% discount will be offered for the pelvis
class only.If you are concerned, please contact us and let us
know exactly which classes you taken previously, and then we will
let you know about your discount. |
