August Newsletter

Core Skills: Introduction to IPSB Massage
  • Would you like to be more aware of your own body while working on clients?
  • Have your forgotten the core principles of IPSB massage? 
  • Were you trained at another school and now want to take advanced classes at IPSB?
  • Are you looking for a class to get you ready for advanced classes?
 
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then Core Skills is right for you!
 
ClassShot
 
For 27 years the IPSB style of massage has helped therapists deliver a powerful, deeply moving sensory experience to clients while protecting the therapist's body from stress, injury and burnout.  This course for new and seasoned massage professionals overviews the principles of IPSB Massage through movement explorations, hands-on bodywork and exercises in personal sensory awareness.  Students learn tai chi-based movements to integrate into their massage repertoire as well as a kinder, gentler approach to deeper circulatory work.  Proper body mechanics, an introduction to tai chi, communication skills, professional boundaries, injury prevention and integration of body, mind and heart are emphasized.

PierThe Santa Monica Pier Concert Series is going strong!
 
 
 
Stop by our booth every Thursday night through August 31 and receive some phenomenal bodywork.  Many of our graduates have volunteered their time to raise money in support of the Concert Series and to let the community know abut our clinic.  What could be better than an IPSB Massage on the beach to the sound of live music?  Many of the graduate volunteers recently took our new Event Massage Class to brush up on their On Site skills.  If you are interested in what that class is all about, ask for a demonstration while you attend the concert. 
If you would like to volunteer, there is still time!  This is also a great way to meet new potential clients, network and hand out your personal business cards.  This is just one more way we are striving to support you in building a thriving practice.  If you have questions or would like to volunteer, please contact Sabrina at (310) 342-7130 or sabrina@ipsb.com

AnnieVincentBye Bye Annie!
 
Our fabulous Front Desk Administrative Assistant, Annie Vincent, is moving to Pennsylvania!  While working at IPSB, Annie also completed the 150 Massage Technician course.  Her energetic personality and free spirited approach to live has brought so much joy into the office.  Annie has been an amazing asset to our school and we will miss her very much!  Good luck Annie!
 
Hello Mary!

 
Taking Annie's place is Mary Mason.  Mary is currently a 550 Hour program student who comes toMaryMason us with a plethora of experience and a true understanding of our community.   Many of you have probably attended class with Mary or had her as a TA in your tech classes, so she should be a familiar face!  Mary is already doing a great job and we are so happy to have her join our administrative team.  Feel free to stop by the office and welcome Mary!   

Congratulations to our newest 550 Hour Graduates!
