Event Description
This is our introductory course to Ashiatsu Barefoot Bar Therapy. Therapists will have lots of “feet on” time in this 3-day comprehensive class. Barefoot Curriculum includes prone and supine, seated and standing Ashiatsu Techniques. Our methodology is western focused and includes cross-fiber friction, effleurage, petrissage, compression as well as some trigger point and myofascial techniques.
The emphasis during this course will be on body mechanics, barefoot application, contraindications, certification, and bar construction. Therapists will gain enough knowledge and confidence to offer up to a 90-minute full body Ashiatsu treatment.
A non-refundable deposit of $325 is required to hold your spot. Once you complete the registration process a confirmation email will be sent to you. The remaining tuition balance will be due to your instructor two weeks prior to class.
Upon completion of this course, you will receive 25 CE hours. To become certified in Ashiastu DeepFeet Bar Therapy students are required to perform a practical on day three of class, complete an online quiz and submit 20 documented practice sessions.
Please review the following before registering:

The art of learning effleurage fluidly with the feet can be physically and mentally challenging. A successful learning environment depends on team participation.
If you have any physical ailment or debility that may interfere with you or your classmates’ learning process, please contact us in advance. Our #1 priority is safety for all students and guest clients participating in our workshops. A private one on one class may available if you require extra time or attention. Each student will give and receive two or more hours of Ashiatsu on the first two days of class. Although Ashiatsu is incredibly relaxing, it is also a deep compressive form of massage that is not appropriate for all conditions
We reserve the right to cancel class up to two weeks prior to the event if there are less than four students registered. This is highly unlikely to happen, in the event that it does we try and give students as much fair warning as possible. At such time, students can choose a 100% refund, or roll their deposit over to a future training with no penalties.
Your $325 deposit is non refundable should you cancel out of your selected workshop and the scheduled workshop takes place. A tuition roll over to a future workshop is allowed in the event of a healthcare emergency, pregnancy or injury. Two weeks notice is required and the fee to roll over the tuition is $75. When buying airfare, we suggest purchasing a ticket that is refundable should a schedule change occur.

About the Instructor
I was gifted massage school as a high school graduation present from my mother who is also a massage therapist in 2007. A little over a year into my practice I began to notice the same wear and tear therapists go through providing deep massage day in and day out. I discovered DeepFeet Bar Therapy while working in Austin, TX in 2009 and quickly signed my mother and myself up. That first class is always a game changer. I fell completely in love with the flow, beauty and ease that is Ashiatsu. I no longer hesitated when those “pressure junky” clients walked in the door. Within a year of my initial training I had signed up for every class DeepFeet had to offer and couldn’t stop there. I am currently trained and certified in Ashiatsu, Fijian Barefoot Massage, The Rossiter System, Chavutti Thirumal, Barefoot Shiatsu, Traditional Thai Massage and Sarga Bodywork. As a perpetual student coming from a large family of educators, I have a deep passion for constant growth and always striving for a deeper understanding of massage and barefoot techniques. I look forward to introducing this incredible career changing and lengthening modality to therapists and seeing the same passion take hold.
