“I have taken several continuing education courses with Hilary. Topics covered included point location, refining CSOE skills, and rapport skills, to name a few. As a result of her amazing teaching ability, I feel more competent and confident in all these areas. I have grown tremendously as a practitioner, as a direct result of taking Hilary's seminars, and plan on attending future courses she offers. I highly recommend her seminars to all CF-EA Practitioners.”
Jim Brooks

AGGRESSIVE ENERGY CORRECTION

by Hilary Skellon, Daughter of Professor J. R. Worsley.
An Enhancement Class for Students having some background in Classical Five-Element Acupuncture.

The fourth in the series in response to the request of acupuncture students of other traditions who have had short courses in Classical Five-Element Acupuncture. These classes will supplement and enhance learning in the Classical Five-Element tradition.
Aggressive Energy (AE) is held by more and more people in this day and age of separation from nature, overwork, and inundation by technological products and byproducts. This procedure is something which should be checked on each of our clients, as there is no other way to determine if it is present. Deepen your understanding and enhance your knowledge through ‘hands on’ experience. Selected Spirits of Points will also be discussed.

CEUs and Cost: 4 CEUs. $85 ($75 if you sign up for the entire series at $450)
Location: 325 W. South Boulder Road, Louisville, Colorado

OFFICIALS OF FIRE AND WATER

by Hilary Skellon, Daughter of Professor J. R. Worsley.
An Enhancement Class for Students having some background in Classical Five-Element Acupuncture.

The final class in this series in response to the request of acupuncture students of other traditions who have had short courses in Classical Five-Element Acupuncture. These classes will supplement and enhance learning in the Classical Five-Element tradition.
As Classical Five-Element Acupuncture treats clients as a part of nature, so are the Officials members of the Chinese ruling court. Each time we hear about an Official we learn more aspects of the job description, duties, and even personality associated with it. Here, the learning is truly spiral – we can forever benefit from descriptions from another source. Hilary’s close association with Professor Worsley gives her tremendous insight into how he saw each Official. Hilary will also discuss relevant Spirits of Points.

CEUs and Cost: 4 CEUs. $85 ($75 if you sign up for the entire series at $450)
Location: 325 W. South Boulder Road, Louisville, Colorado

For more information or to register, contact ITEA at finance@itea.edu or (720) 890-8922.
