New Zealand and Australia Workshop and Training Information

If you are not on the New Zealand and Australia Connection emailing list, you can register for it here and receive updates of information about workshops and trainings with overseas instructors. Those interested in TTouch in New Zealand should contact Lib Roe, Guild Certified Practitioner, ttouchnz@xtra.co.nz. You may also want to visit the TTouch Australia website, where you will find a list of practitioners.

All 5-day trainings count towards the Practitioner Certification Program for Companion Animals or the Equine Certification Program and are offered for those attending their first training, and for those who have already attended previous 5 or 6-day sessions. It is also designed for those simply wanting skills to work with their own animals - and for those who already work professionally with animals and want to add to their expertise.

Edie Jane has just completed three workshops in New Zealand - two companion animal workshops (Dunedin and Auckland) and a 3-day TTEAM workshop at Trisha Wren’s farm in Waikato. Trisha (www.trishawren.com) is a Connected Riding Instructor, and will be teaching in Australia later this month - see contact information below.
