TICKETS HAVE BEEN PURCHASED, FOR REAL...Bowral, NSW Here We Come

We will be there, SO you have to be there, too. Please tell everyone you know that we are coming for sure. Let them know that they will have the opportunity to learn how to keep horses, dogs, and cats healthy and happy with the ancient art and science of acupressure.

We will be offering all of the hands-on courses necessary to become an animal acupressure practitioner. However, we do suggest that participants in the Tallgrass training programme break their studies in half by taking the Introduction to Acupressure followed by Meridians & Specific Conditions (6 days) on the first time around. Then, on the next time we are in Australia, we suggest they complete the courses by taking Indicators & Assessment, the Revising/Study Day and sit for the Practicum (4 days). It is a lot of information to absorb at one time.

The Tallgrass programme is comprehensive and covers the essential Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) concepts underlying acupressure along with their application. We suggest that participants begin their studies with the online courses so that they are familiar with the language and theories that are necessary to understanding how to perform an acupressure session. The hands-on courses reinforce the online courses as you progress.

This is the first time Tallgrass is teaching all of the hands-on courses in Australia and we need your help in making sure it is a success! Please tell all your friends and colleagues who love animals and want to work with animals that we will be there. Forward this email newsletter.

 

 

AUTUMN IS THE TIME OF GATHERING
 Autumn is here and the temperatures are dropping as winter approaches. It is a time of in-gathering of resources in preparation for the cold ahead.

Read the about the courses that are required and check out the course descriptions. Begin with "Overview of Traditional Chinese Medicine" and complete the registration. You will receive notification that the course is open to you along with your access information.
