Craniosacral Classes

I am honored to be one of only two people in North America approved by Etienne Peirsman to teach his unique style of Craniosacral (CST). Referred to as "Midline" craniosacral by his students, Etienne's style of CST incorporates both biomechanical (Upledger) and biodynamic (Sills) approaches to CST, while being anchored in a deep, meditative state called No-Mind. Students find that practicing this style of CST is both easily accessible and deeply profound.
If you are interested in taking a class and would like to either register or to learn more about the classes, please email Lena.Armstrong.cst@gmail.com. I am happy to schedule a 20 minute video call for anyone who would like to get a better feel for my style or to ask questions about the classes.

Upcoming Classes
Craniosacral Basics I (32 CEU's)
February 11-14, 2022, 9am to 6pm - Arlington, WA - $700
This introductory class teaches how to listen and feel the inner movements of the human body. You will connect to the basic cranial rhythms and see how they impact the client. Fascial intelligence, the diaphragm releases, and the cranial lifts are also studied and discussed. Each day, participants give and receive practice sessions, as well. By the end of this class you will be able to give a full basic craniosacral session.

Basics II: Unwinding, Meridians and Rhythms (32 CEU's)
March 18-21, 2022, 9am to 6pm - Arlington, WA - $700
This class explores deeper cranial rhythms and the neutral touch. You will learn the unwinding process of the head, neck and extremities. We will work with the meridians to open the heart and to connect to the other organs, and we will release the ribcage and lungs. You will learn how to use energy to direct a healing flow as well as find your “original voice.”

Sphenoid Studies and Intelligence (32 CEU's)
April 15-18, 2022 - Arlington, WA - $700
When a child is born, there are many pressures on the skull that hold the base of the brain and the platelets of the head into fixed positions. The normal hardening of these bones locks the skull into a “baby position.” Without intervention, this position stays with us for the rest of our lives. In this class we will be able to increase the flexibility of the cranial base and allow the brain to function within the maximum space available. The creation of space for the brain will release a whole new avenue of intelligence that was unavailable before.
*basic craniosacral knowledge is recommended for this class

Talking to the Heart and the Birth of Love (32 CEU's)
May 27-30, 2022 - Arlington, WA - $700
In this class, you will go beyond working in total silence. You will practice the use of your “original voice” and help your client to do the same. Intelligence of cells and organs will be engaged and speak directly to structures inside the body. Techniques on how to release blockages from around your own heart and heart protector and those of your client will be covered. Since therapy is dependent on the love that the therapist can allow, everyone who wants to claim this ability has to make sure his/her heart is as free and open as possible.
