INSTRUCTORS IN TRAINING
Dear Jin Shin Jyutsu class organizers, Greetings to all of you from the Scottsdale office. As many of you know we have a number of "Instructors in Training", who have recently begun making presentations in some of our 5-day classes. Apparently, not all of the students who are in attendance have heard about this, so I would like to be sure that this information is provided to all students, well in advance of the class. Ideally, this would be mentioned in your response letter or in any promotional information you may be sending out to prospective students. These presentations tend to be about 20 minutes to a half hour in length and are supervised by the class instructor. Over the years we have had excellent feedback regarding these presentations, which provides students with a chance to meet prospective new instructors and participate in their development. For those of you with a class coming up very soon, please email those enrolled to prevent any surprises. We also plan to put this information on our website and in our future brochures. Let me know if you have any questions.
Lovingly, David Burmeister
