Is communication more important than the modality we practice? My answer is yes.

Went hiking early this morning slipped and fell ever so gracfully on my rearend. Dusted myself off - no apparent damage and started off again about five minutes in my neck started to lockup. It took only a few minutes of AIS Cervical stretches - the muscles & sublicated vertabra released and I was good to go... How awesome is AIS!

Thanks Marjorie, I'll keep a look out for the Portland, Oregon class.

The principals of AIS along with select stretches to improve posture are presented. You will gain an understanding of how to apply the techinque along with proper body mechanics for practitioner & client as well as the importance of client cueing. Again this class is designed as an introduction to AIS. If you are looking for a longer more indepth course closer to home I have a 3-day seminar in the works for April 2011 in Portland, Oregan. Best I can do for right now unless you care to join me for a two day intro in Las Vegas, should be fun!

One day of each in MT? So how much will I gather in terms of helping others if I attend the one day AIS?
Thanks!
Lori

Hi Lori, The Montana class is a one day Scar Tissue and one day intro to AIS.. The Vegas class is a one day Scar followed by a two day AIS class. You can just come for the AIS. I hope that helps!

I am interested in a west coast (preferrably OR) AIS class. I checked out the Montana class and it's in Scar tissue release.
Thank you

For those who are interested I just added a NYC AIS class to my calander. I figure it is time to start teaching in my own back yard. For more information on my August class please visit my site www.brookseminars.com
