Integrative Stretching Curriculum
The goal of Integrative Stretching is to provide any movement and bodywork professionals with a specialized set of skills and techniques geared towards improving the movement of their clients through assisted stretching and soft-tissue manipulation techniques.
Many stretch certification programs are limited in content, creativity, and time practicing. In this program you'll learn more than just fascial release, PNF, or AIS. You'll learn principles and skills that will enable you to adapt your approach to anyone, in any setting, and for many different goals. You'll be encouraged through the module based system to continue your learning and education even after you earn your certification. The learning doesn't end with this program. That's why we also include study groups for those who've completed this program and people with advanced stretch therapy practices. You are encouraged to learn more from other stretch methods and coaches as there is always new something to learn about stretching.
This comprehensive curriculum ensures you'll be given enough of a base to start your own assisted stretching practice or easily integrate it into your current work with clients who are looking to improve their health and fitness.
