"I had the distinct pleasure over the weekend of attending the Barefoot Basics training course in Cincinnati. I am writing to compliment you and your organization on the most outstanding three day training program I have ever attended. I have been a licensed massage therapist since 1992 and a certified yoga teacher since the early 80's, so I have attended more than my fair share of training seminars!The workbook and video provided a clear, concise and comprehensive explanation of the techniques - something expected of a course of this nature but not always delivered. What really impressed me, however, was the detail - the time and attention to the "nuts and bolts" of everything from the installation of the bars, to what to wear while working, to proper draping of the clients, to tips for marketing the technique to the public. Everything was top notch and delightfully professional - the location, the class size, the information and the instructor. Kudos to you and your work!I signed up for the training to learn a new massage technique. What I learned however, was much, much more! Pardon the pun, but you "set the bar" pretty darn high with regards to my expectations for future training workshops.Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Ashi-Thai student testimonial:
"I just got back from taking the Ashi-Thai workshop with Sarah Maxwell in Connecticut. INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! The work is just FANTASTIC!!! I LOVED it (can ya tell?). I have very limited Thai experience....have only had one session. A few weeks ago I took a one day table Thai workshop......didn't learn NEARLY as much in one day of that as I did in 1/2 a day of the Ashi-Thai workshop.
I wanted to let you know that Sarah was just AWESOME!!! She was very professional, incredibly punctual and very thorough with the training. She was patient and helpful. She was very good at helping us to see where we were having problems and helping us figure out how to "get it right". There was laughter and good energy in the room
always.
I must tell you, Ruthie, I have gone to a lot of CEU classes and I have never taken any that have matched the Ashiatsu classes. It's not just the FABULOUS new techniques that we learn.....it's also about the amount of useful information in the class, the way the classes are run, the punctuality, the thoroughness, as well as the incredible amount of knowledge the instructors have about the subject and how to teach it. Obviously, you have been a fabulous teacher to them!!!
Thanks so much Ruthie!"
