I took the Hip, Lower back and Abdomen class in Anchorage, AK last weekend and was completely blown away by the simplicity and effectiveness of the SMRT technique. The class itself was incredibly informative, anatomically and practically; Dawn never misses a beat! Every move was described in such a way that you always understand exactly what she's doing and why, and honestly the results speak for themselves. Would 1000% recommend taking any and all of her classes to expand your knowledge, business, and skills! I've only taken one class but am planning to take all five.
I took the Axilla, Upper back, and Shoulder SMRT course in Tucson, AZ.
Dawn, Nicole, and Michael were amazing in their patient of teaching and showing us the techniques! I've been afraid of treating ribs all my career but after the class, it opened new doors and adventures to dive and treat this population of people. Everyone in the class was so nice and helpful; great environment. Take it when you can. I'm excited and looking forward to taking the next class in the future!
Be SMRT and SMRT is the way~~!!!
I learned about SMRT on the socials and then youtube and started practicing the techniques before I took a class. I was very excited with the results I was getting and was looking forward to the live training. The Head & Neck, Arm & Hand classes were eye opening. Small, gentle movements were creating big results. I was able to practice on myself after class and saw quick improvements. The Lymphatic and Scar Tissue class provided me new insights into MLD and gave me techniques to treat scar tissue. I highly recommend SMRT classes. I've signed up for two more classes over the next month!
I have always wanted to take a SMRT class and all I can say is why did I wait so long!!!!
I took the lower extremities class and what a game changer! The teaching is very detailed, and we got to practice after instruction to be sure we understood before moving on. The instructors were wonderful about checking with us during practice time and they were available for questions and demonstration if needed. I have already started using SMRT technique in my practice and have seen very positive results. I will definitely be taking more SMRT classes!
This is the best continuing education class I've ever taken! Dawn is incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent teacher. Material was presented clearly and logically. And we had tons of time to practice hands on! This class was fantastic because: 1) Between Dawn and the TA there was plenty of help. 2) TONS of hands on time to learn AND the class was filled with talented and experienced therapists. 3) Normally I leave CE classes with a new move or two. Not this one! I learned so many valuable techniques and Dawn introduced techniques that will allow me to design whole new sessions and protocols to add to my menu. PLUS, I left the class feeling so confident I began using them immediately with clients and seeing results! Disclaimer: this style of massage and this CE class will be easier if you have a good understanding of anatomy and kinesiology. If you don't have this knowledge base you could just memorize the moves and use them in your practice. But understanding what you are doing and why will take you a lot further with this training.
I am an LMT since 1997 and a professional ballet dancer before that. In private practice since 1998 and now an MT in a spa setting I have taken 2 SMRT classes in person and subscribe to the streaming service. Dawn Lewis is a goldmine of knowledge. I highly suggest taking at least a few in person classes. I will definitely take more as my schedule allows! Even the simplest of SMRT moves interspersed with massage help everyone I work with. Please, don't miss the opportunity to improve your ability to help folks with their issues.
I just had the chance to take the Hip, Lower back & Abdomen class in Macon GA and loved it so much that I have already signed up to take another class being held in Va this May. I loved the way the info was given in small chunks then had time to do hands on before moving to the next set of techniques.
I signed up for the lower extremities course thanks to a post card I got in the mail. I opened the website and took one glance (to see if it was legit) and then made a call to the number on the card. Signed up and didn't think anything of it. (I needed the credits, it was close, and fit the budget). Boy was I in for a surprise...
The brilliance of the initial delivery already had me entranced. The wealth of knowledge you will receive, never mind the hyper anatomy review that I loved. (I was big on precision in Massage School but nothing was as thorough as this). The impact in the body is so much greater than perceivable... I went back to the room every night after training and practiced on my foot... and got the same or even better results that we were exploring in the training... How can this be? I thought... that this is not available to all therapists ? -
If you have any doubts what so ever, let those go. You will be enriched in mind, soul and inspiration. I read all the reviews now here below and I could not agree more with what other therapists have said. This is a game changer !
And a blessing - to you, your clients, and the community. Onward !
LIFE CHANGING! I haven't stopped asking friends and family to let me practice SMRT moves on them, and we all continue to be astounded at the results. It is a mind-blowing, inspiring, and exciting revelation to have learned the smallest amount of SMRT. I am grateful to have spent the time that I have with the Dawn, Rhonda, and Nicole.
SMRT is the future that will change the world of health. I can't wait to take more classes.
I attended my first SMRT class on the shoulder. I'm excited to use these techniques (and have aleady!). I told Dawn I wish I'd found this earlier in my career.
I also was fortunate to have a session of SMRT and I feel great!
