Mary, this review is received and I have submitted changes to SB for future courses based on your feedback. However, there are some points I would like to clear for all to read. 1. The curriculum was not altered at all. The only thing that changed was the title of the course; most specifically for 101 as I was adapting to include floor based practitioners (if they came forward; which they did not). Floor was not taught in SLC. 102 does have a mix of standing floor to raised table as listed in the outline when you signed up. So I believe there was a misunderstanding in your interpretation of what the course would be and it explicitly says that no review of 101 would be done in 102’s course outline just new techniques. 2. If class time was not used effectively to your standard in 101, why return to my class in 102? 3. After 6 months of your practice you were not much farther along than some of the 101 students. We all are still learning and they advantage of taking 102 directly after 101 is more time in the silks, further muscle memory and a mixed cohort. Application of mayo.rub and barefoot technique in 102 is just as challenging for a new or return student. 4. I am highly adaptable and provide many tools for learning in and out of the classroom. If you would have made any of your concerns known they could have been remedied in real time. The only request I made in class was to keep the set up from Day 1 of equipment. Anyone could have changed partners, but no one did; and that was the 1st time ever in all my 8 years of teaching this modality. Each partner is there for us to learn from but the real learning continues after the course once all things are implemented in practice in your own time and space. No one comes out of these classes a pro. Refinement is necessary. 5. Your partner was adept and versed in the material as were all the others who made it to 101. They could take deep pressure from the instructor in the demo. Inability to take deep pressure from a student partner often has to do with various intricacies like Myo.rub application (too much or too little), confidence in the silk tension & wrap, as well as accurate placement of the foot as not to bear down on joints and endangerment sites. The 1st and later were mostly what I saw you struggling with in class. To sum it up I have submitted changes for a future at 1:02 course to become a three day course including a lab so people have more time to practice. I highly recommend for anyone taking any Sarga Bodywork course to read all the material and go over all class videos before and during the course to, familiarize themselves with all the new material that will be coming. Also, taking note of the anatomy portion of the course manual so that there is no question of certain bony landmarks and target muscles we will be accessing in class. It is true that not every instructor is for every student and I am definitely not for the masses. However, if you choose to return to a 102 course, there are often free retakes with other instructors.
