I love bodywork! And I love to learn.
I graduated from massage school in 2008 and followed up with a 2½ year foundation training in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST). In 2011 I became a Certified Qigong Teacher. In addition to numerous post graduate BCST courses, in 2016 I worked my way through the Orthopedic Massage program with James Waslaski and finally landed in a MAT Workshop in Costa Rica with Erik Dalton in 2018.
Learning Erik Dalton’s Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques has contributed immensely to my success as a massage therapist. I am so much more confident in assessing and treating complicated conditions and I am able to transform the lives of my clients in every session. My business has grown so fast, and my schedule is full from nothing other than word of mouth referrals. I repeatedly get the same feedback from clients that they have never experienced a session quite like MAT and they keep coming back for more!
In August 2022 I felt very blessed to have completed my MMT certification at Erik Dalton’s MAT workshop in Ireland. I took my time with the MMT training. It took a few years to complete as I didn’t want to just rush through the online courses, and I really wanted to make sure I mastered the techniques by attending as many hands-on workshops as possible. I even repeated the Costa Rica workshop twice and took numerous classes locally with Nate Fay. So you can imagine how exciting it was for me when I received my MMT certificate at Erik Dalton’s MAT Workshop in Ireland in August 2022!
I have also discovered a love of supporting others in learning these life-changing techniques. I now assistant teach at MAT workshops at every opportunity I get. Each workshop I attend allows me more fine-tuning of my technique and enhances my abilities to help other therapists learn too. Thank you, Erik, Kim, and every other teacher and TA who have helped me on my journey of learning MAT and those who have welcomed me to feel part of the MAT family! However, all of this would not have been the same without the best training and travel partner Marisel Clark who got me started on this life changing journey. I look forward to our constant exchanges and discussions about the work, as much as we can manage these days, with our newly busy schedules! With much gratitude!
