Licensed Workshop Instructors

 

The Register of Licensed Workshop Instructors is for fully trained instructors who have completed their training and assessment with us and hold a license to deliver our copyrighted material.

WANT TO ATTEND A WORKSHOP NEAR TO YOU?
We normally hold workshops throughout the year in North Worcestershire but Covid has resulted in a disruption to our diary.  However, we have now extended the network of workshops to cover other parts of the country with our Licensed Workshop Instuctors.

You no longer need to travel to Canine Massage Therapy Centre in Worcestershire, our fully trained and licensed workshops instructors may have a course in your area! And if there isn’t a course near you, maybe they can help you host one for your club or group of friends! Only Instructors listed below are licensed to deliver our Beginners and Pre-Event workshops!  Check for the logo to ensure that your Instructor is licensed to deliver our courses for us and to guarantee that they have been specifically trained by us to deliver to our exacting standards!

Not able to attend a workshop? Maybe your dog is too reactive to cope with other dogs in a room or you are unable to travel to anyone on the list – we now are able to offer the Beginners Guide ON-LINE in the comfort of your own home!  For details of where you can access on-line workshops, check individual Instructors websites for details.

WANT TO HOST YOUR OWN WORKSHOP?
Please contact your Instructor directly to arrange a workshop near you!*
Your instructor will need the following details:

• Which workshop? Beginners Guide to Canine Massage or Pre & Post Event for Sport
• Your Location
• If you have a venue organized
• Number of attendees (please note there is usually a minimum of 8-10 for an instructor to travel)
• Any special requirements

Some of our instructors are also speakers for events and seminars.
