What is the difference between the one day and two day workshops?
One day workshops are one day affairs where WCA (Lisa Rohleder and Skip Van Meter) comes to you. Topics covered:
1) Fundamental definition of Community Acupuncture
2) Class and Classism in Acupuncture marketing
3) Basic systems of Community Acupuncture
4) Jingei pulse diagnosis.
Prices for these workshops: Sliding scale of $75-200.
- The two-day workshops are similar to the one day workshops. They cover the same range of topics as the one day workshops but is more comprehensive. How to put it... the one day workshops are jam-packed with info. The two-day workshop gives you more time to reflect about the info, interact with the WCA folks, and ask more questions. The two day workshops also include:
- a Community Acupuncturist Practitioner Panel (here how it's done from people who've done it- not just WCA.
- the Famous Clinic Simulation exercise (prove to yourself that you really can treat six people an hour-or more).
We can't wait!



Honolulu!!!
You may need some help on that one. Don't hesitate to ask.
Chicago
is the "possibly" because you aren't sure about July, or because you aren't sure that you wouldn't rather come to Detroit? ;^)
(And yes, that *is* an offer to put you up, find a place for the class, let you use the clinic, feed you and buy you drinks, take Lisa out Karaoke-ing to Lady Gaga, etc.)
WCA stands for...
Working class acupuncture? world community...
Yes
Sorry to be late in answering you. Yes, WCA= Working Class Acupuncture, a clinic in Portland that sees 500+ patients a week in its two locations.
Annual Tour T-Shirts.
Seriously. List of cities that you're giving workshops at on the back. Red fist logo on the front. Total collectors item. End-of-year leftovers could be promotional giveaways...
