Details
The Rolf Movement® Integration intensive training is offered in three parts in Munich and the parts can be booked in any order and can be spread over a few years. Each part will be offered every 9-10 months. Each part will cover 5 Movement credits and 3 elective credits towards the Advanced Training.

After attending all three parts you will get the Rolf Movement Integration certificate and can use the service mark Rolf Movement®.

Part 2: Introduction to Leading Rolf Movement Groups

In this part, using Rolf Movement theory, principles, and embodied explorations, you will further explore how to create sequences and how to sustain a series of movements in exploration classes that you will be able to use in a group setting. This part is intended to assist you in creating additional support for your client’s ongoing work on themselves. It will also provide you with a new approach to be able to reach out to interested groups. Through offering Rolf Movement classes, you will be able to provide a new avenue to introduce potential clients to the Rolfing® process.

This part invites all certified Rolfers® and already certified Rolf Movement® Practitioners to participate in the newly developed aspect of the Rolfing body of knowledge – ‘leading groups’.
