200 Hour, 5 Module Approach
The five modules approach to the tens session series allows
the committed students to implement the techniques that are learned
in each module into their practice and then return for subsequent
modules with the knowledge and inquiry that comes exclusively from
"hands on" experience. This learning format also allows
therapists to minimize the impact on their family responsibilities
as well time away from their practices. It is not necessary to take
every module to gain benefit for their practices. Each module contains
an enormous amount of information that is often highly beneficial
to any style of bodywork.
The student to teacher ratio on the table is never greater than
4 to 1! And most importantly, the Lyons Institute believes the most
powerful teaching method employs a "dual path" feedback
system. Every technique is demonstrated on every student. In addition,
the student will work on the instructors, so that they may enjoy
powerful feedback sessions immediately. This method accelerates
the understanding of the quality of touch that is necessary to implement
the techniques. |

Module 1
In this module the new student
of Structural Integration will be given the physical tools
and body mechanics used throughout the process and the ability
to transfer those skills in their current practice.
In this module we will begin the journey of "seeing" the body
in stillness and in movement to create a framework with which
a protocol can be built upon to assist our clients in creating
a more balanced structure.
In this module appropriate use of pace and vector while applying
the various tools will be covered.
Visceral and cranial concepts will be introduced which augment
the original approach that was given to us by Dr. Ida P. Rolf
creating additional channels to access the client' healing
system.
The energetic quality of touch and its value will be explored
during the beginning of our journey as SI practitioners.

up by evaluating the effects of strategic lengthening on structures
below the pelvis.
The students will be given "brain gym" concepts to implement in
their clients self-educational, healing process.
The cranial wave will continue to be explored with concepts for
focusing and listening.
The student will learn how to take structural concepts and techniques
and apply it to athletic enhancements protocols.
Stretching concepts will be discussed as well and specific stretches
will be introduced for injury prevention and rehabilitation.
The students will be taught the pyramid concept and its value to
movement.
In this module the students will also learn to explore more deeply
into the concept of energetic touch and "broadcasting".
In this module the students will gain valuable insights into the
pelvic floor and how to bring balance to that important area.
The 3rd and 4th session in the recipe will
be taught in its entirety. |

to create balance and softness.
Additional "brain gym" concepts will be taught during this module
to create subtle movement options.
Mobility stretching exercises will be taught to enhance the client's
