The Instructor Training Seminar (ITS) in the Instructor Training Program (ITP) is divided into 2 segments: ITS 1 and ITS 2. This 5 day seminar is the second part. The ITS is an important part of the educational process that prepares trainees to teach Ortho-Bionomy at the foundational level and to assume the many responsibilities of an instructor. Join us in Denver for this enriching, deepening, and inspiring experience! For more info, read the ITP Handbook at www.ortho-bionomy.org.
