All exercises will
be taught and discussed at length. In addition to the lectures and instruction,
you will be expected to participate in a working lab. It is suggested
to purchase the book "Thriving After Breast Cancer" Essential
Healing Exercises for body and mind. By Sherry Lebed Davis, as it is used
during the training.
Cost of the program
includes the video which you will be expected to have reviewed and become
familiar with this material before the course commences. The video provides
the basic "in the box" exercises - those which cannot be changed
or altered. It is an at home video for the women and does not represent
the full TLM program. Please keep this in mind while reviewing the video.
The certification workshop will introduce exercises not included in the
video and allow you the hands-on opportunity to alter and customize certain
exercises to your own taste and style.
Music selection will
be provided. However, it is suggested that attendees bring music they
like and enjoy to the training session. Both slow and fast music will
be required in the labs. Homework will be assigned as preparation for
Day Two/three day training
