ITB Stewardship

Integral Transformative Bodywork provides guidance in the art and science of ITB called the Stewardship program. This refinement process is meant for any healthcare practitioner interested in diving deeper into the complexity of the 5 Pillars and how they harmoniously interconnect in service to the modal of Full Recovery.

 
 
 

Who Is This For?

The ITB Stewardship is for any licensed massage therapist (LMT) interested in immersing themselves in the momentum of personal transformation of self and client. Since there is considerable hands-on bodywork content all participants must have an active massage license.

With that said, this stewardship is for LMT’s interested in:

  • Proficiency in the 5 Pillars of ITB and being of service to others working towards Full Recovery.

  • Educating and enhancing their clients’ life and potential of performance.

  • A comprehensive and fully integrated recovery and human potential program.

  • Practicing at the cutting edge of human potential and recovery.

  • Enjoying the benefits of joining a community of heart centered, highly functional, dynamic people in the pursuit of exploring and embodying the Vast Potential alive inside them.


Our Intentions For Students

  • Support each student in the proficiency and embodiment of the ITB 5 Pillars.

  • Provide a safe and functional learning environment for the student to explore and be impacted by the 5 Pillars in their personal journey through Full Recovery.

  • The production of ITB Stewards that are proficient in providing Full Recovery to “all sentient Beings”.

  • Engage in open, honest and vulnerable sharing, challenging, and exploration in service to the ever unfolding and evolving ITB lifestyle.

To Join

  1. Contact ITB with your intent to join the Stewardship.

  2. An ITB rep will contact you and schedule an in-person interview with Lead Facilitator, Geoff West. This mandatory interview is to create a personal connection between apprentice and mentor, clarify responsibilities of both parties, and answer any and all questions the mentor and apprentice may have.

  3. Upon the conclusion of this interview Geoff will supply the student with the proper registration information and the student can proceed in the process.


Details

Where:

Georgia, in the Atlanta area.

When:

The Stewardship is an 18 month course that will meet twice a month for 7hr classes. These classes will be offered on specific days each month (for example: the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month). Start dates are posted below (keep scrolling). We offer weekday classes since most LMT’s make most of their money on weekends.

What you get:

Each LMT will receive a “Certificate of Completion” for 252 credit hours (CH’s) that are only recognized by ITB as an institution. Within those CH’s are 78 CE’s WHICH ARE RECOGNIZED BY THE NCBTMB. Of those 78 CE’s, 49 are hands-on and 25 are lecture (including 4 ethics CE’s). You will receive a separate certificate recognizing the 78 NCBTMB CE’s.

There are opportunities to accrue another 50+/- CH’s through participation in “ITB field trips.” These Field Trips are provided through ITB co-collaborators and affiliates. They are not mandatory. Some require small fee’s that ITB DOES NOT COVER. Examples of Field Trips are sweat lodge, trancedance (5 rhythms/ecstatic dance), meditation gatherings, foraging guidance, breathwork gatherings, and community volunteer opportunities. Student participation in any Field Trip will be documented in their file and recognized in their CH’s.
