Objectives

In this class students work on clients under instructor supervision. Upon successful completion of this course, students graduate as Certified Rolfers.

Class Format

This class meets four to five days per week for eight weeks. During Unit III students apply the knowledge and techniques learned in Units I and II to clinical and practical situations. Each student will perform the Rolfing Ten Series on three clients from the community, in the classroom, under instructor supervision. In addition, students will give Rolf Movement sessions to outside clients, further preparing them for the diverse needs of a real-world clientele.

Ongoing attention will be given to students' developing efficient body use while working and improving client-practitioner relationship skills, quality of touch, variety of techniques and body-reading. Professional ethics and business skills are also taught in this Unit, along with public education practices, preparing students to develop an independent Rolfing practice.

Students who graduate from the South African Rolfing training receive a certificate from the Rolf Institute of Structural Integration that documents their status as a Certified Rolfer, an international qualification held in high regard.
