Post-Training Privilege
The 3-day Indian Champissage workshop is an intense learning experience. While it is my goal to thoroughly ground my students in the Champissage technique before they leave, I understand that many questions may arise once students return to their practices. I welcome questions on any aspect of the training, and I will do my very best to provide assistance in any way via email or telephone. My availability is on-going for as long as needed and at no charge. As an added resource for my students, I offer them an unlimited post-training privilege. Students may return to any of my 3-day Champissage workshops, at any time, at absolutely no tuition cost. Regrettably, I cannot offer a second Certificate of Attendance for approved CE hours. Several of my students have come back to visit for one, two or three days. Their attendance at future trainings brings an added flavor to the class. These graduates offer their own experiences and guidance which truly enhance the overall learning experience.
Hosting a Class
If you cannot attend the course in Virginia, please consider assisting me in organizing a class in your local area. Your efforts will earn credits toward your tuition and will be greatly appreciated by me. If there is an accredited massage training institute in your region, please inform their Director of Continuing Education about this opportunity for 21 CE hours for their graduates.
