Classes scheduled

I’m excited to share these two opportunities to learn Zero Balancing in a beautiful country setting just 20-30 minutes away from most of Charlottesville.

In just a few hours you can be introduced into the theory of ZB and practice a short sequence to use in an existing practice or as a quick but very effective stand alone treatment for family & friends.

One Day Introduction to Zero Balancing

Next class:
Saturday, February 8th 10am-6pm   Markwood Road, Charlottesville, VA 22936

Interested in what Zero Balancing might provide your clients? Just need a few CE’s for re-certification? Want to help friends and family but don’t have a health care practice yet? This class  gives you a great day of hands on learning and enough theory to familiarize yourself with the basic principles of Zero Balancing. You go home with a short protocol that can be used alone or easily integrated into any client treatment.

CE Hours: 6 NCBTMB/NCCAOM approve

Check with your state’s professional organizations if they have approved Zero Balancing courses for continuing education. We can provide forms for you to submit to receive CE credit. Your organization may charge a fee.

.Freely moving shoulder

In late March I’m thrilled to teach my favorite class over 4 days. Freely Movable Joints is one of the advanced courses that Dr. Smith created to fulfill the requirements for Zero Balancing Certification. I often encourage students to choose it next after their Core ZB courses as it deepens the touch theory and expands techniques for the hip and shoulder girdles including extra fulcrums for the scapula, knees, lower arms and hands that aren’t specifically included in the Core protocol but can really help a recipients quality of life

Freely Movable Joints

Next class:
Thursday-Sunday, March 20-23 9:30 am-5:30pm   Markwood Road, Charlottesville, VA 22936

Freely Movable Joints is an advanced level Zero Balancing course that expands the focus of Zero Balancing from the foundation and semi-foundation joints of the body to include the “freely movable joints” of the body. Zero Balancing principles and techniques are taken beyond the Core Zero Balancing protocol into other arenas. The freely movable joints present unique therapeutic challenges because of the variety of their anatomy and their great ranges of motion.

By the end of the program you will have the skills to evaluate and balance freely movable joints and the knowledge to devise your own fulcrums to meet the specific needs of a given situation. In Freely Movable Joints we will review basic ZB principles and highlight their application to a number of joints in light of their specific anatomy. The skills and education inherent in this course will broaden your Zero Balancing abilities and will improve your Zero Balancing sessions.

New Avenues

Just in time to celebrate the beginning of March! My stage 2 basement renovation is complete and I welcome visitors and students of Zero Balancing to enjoy Peaceful Retreat ZB Studio! I am ready to identify dates in late May to study ZB in Pickerington, OH near Columbus accommodating up to 6 students for Core ZB classes. One day Intro to ZB and Advancing Skills Days can have 8 students attending in this space. There are 2 dedicated bedrooms on the main floor for out of town students sharing one bathroom. Look for an update in a couple of weeks to be able to register! Please contact me for more information and to get on my email list for future classes. learnzb@wholebody-wellbeing.com

Please click the link below too watch a demonstration of a full Zero Balancing session by our founder, Dr. Fritz Smith. I’m very excited to share this because the person receiving has been my client and became so enamored with the power of Zero Balancing that she became my student and pursued her studies to become a certified ZBer. She also studied with Dr Smith for a couple of her classes. She mentions me by my nickname, Cindy.

I’m always touched with the depth of held tension that Dr. Smith is able to help a person uncover and with the clarity as well as tenderness that he brings to skilled touch. It has been such a privilege to study under him for the last 25 years and with other faculty for 4 years before that! I will always be a perpetual student of Zero Balancing myself, as many fellow faculty members bring their personal insights into the classes they teach. I also appreciate the input of fellow students in these classes, who may have been studying for a few days or even longer than I have. And really, the most amazing aspect of Zero Balancing is that with awareness and practice, even non-certified ZBer’s can support their clients in profound shifts that can be life changing.
