Keep looking for another school. During orientation many untruths were told to us. Our first class, anatomy had 55 students crowded into one room (one instructer) and we could not all fit. This should have been an indication. Most of the teachers did not have the ability to instruct in an organized way. So many inconsistiies; Classes were not given in any specific order (pre requites) -just what was available at the time. Dangerous (deep work to the neck) was directed haphazardly by too few and uneducated teachers. There were injuries that could have been avoided. People were passed who shouldn't have been. And even disrespect were shown to some of the teacher by the Director of the program. Do yourself a favor, if you are gonna spend the money, find a good school. Very few graduates are actually giving massage and making any money.
