    The DeepFeet 3 Sports™ curriculum uses barefoot techniques to enhance clients' posture, range of motion, and muscle responsiveness. This practice comprises a set of unique and proprietary foundational and structural methods, which we refer to as the "3 Connects. Involving compression, muscle stripping, and activation.

    These three techniques work together to create an effective muscle release method, benefiting clients who experience pain and limited range of motion due to repetitive stress injuries, workout-related soreness, and past traumas or sports injuries resulting in scar tissue formation.

    During the application, clients are assisted through multi-positioning to locate the anterior, lateral, medial, and sagittal muscles concerning surrounding structures and landmarks. Upon completing the training, students will gain the confidence and knowledge necessary to perform a 90-120 minute Ashiatsu session that includes posterior, anterior, and side-lying barefoot sports massage techniques.

    The deposit is $200 to reserve your seat in this class, with the remaining amount due 2 weeks before the class starts.
