About PUSH Trainings

Each PUSH Trainings Module has been designed with one thing in mind - to teach each and every student to be effective and successful at this work. We look at each class from the student's perspective and constantly evaluate the quality of teaching. All PUSH Trainings Instructors and Assistants are passionate about making every training a positive experience for each student.

There are 5 modules in the basic PUSH Trainings courses. Modules 1 and 2, the upper and lower body are stand alone courses, but must be completed before taking Modules 3, 4 and 5. Advanced courses include PUSH Therapy for PUSH Therapists, Assistant's Trainings, and Advanced Assistant's Trainings. These courses are offered to Certified PUSH Therapy Practitioners only.

Lecture Series seminars are offered periodically and have no prerequisites. These 2 ½ hour lectures are dynamic, educational and fun.
