Teach Touch to Your Community
A Two-Hour CE Course by Eric Brown
Would you like to offer massage workshops for additional income? Maybe you want to educate the public about the benefits of touch or move people into your practice. Maybe you know that you would enjoy teaching because teaching is fun! Whatever your goals, it’s easy with the Teach Touch to Your Community online course and teaching package - a complete workshop presentation kit.
Unlike most introductory massage classes where participants need to undress or work on the floor (unless you go to the trouble of supplying everyone with tables), the Teach Touch to Your Community workshop program is super practical:
- All the techniques in this workshop are done over the clothing and are taught with the participants sitting in standard chairs. This makes it incredibly accessible to anyone.
- There is no discomfort associated with disrobing -people remain clothed.
- You don't need to supply tables or other special equipment - a standard chair is all that's needed.
- No messy oils are used.
- You can teach the workshop practically anywhere - from your reception room or a client's home to a church basement or a trade show floor.
- All of the techniques are easy to understand and teach.
- Almost anyone can do these techniques - they've been taught to kids, seniors, and people living with disabilities.
- The course and teaching kit consists of 10 separate modules and can be taught in various formats, from one-hour "lunch and learns" to weekend workshops.
- All course materials are online and available for you to customize and download anytime at the touch of a button.
This incredible collection of resources makes it super-easy for you to run and profit from your very own workshop, all while spreading a message of touch as a positive social value.
Having completed this course, you will be able to:
- Describe touch as a positive social value in your own words.

The instructor's package provides you with everything you need to teach your own massage workshops - everything but the classroom.

You’ll receive illustrated teaching notes that you can personalize with your contact information and print for participants.
