Hi Jon,

Yes, the mini-projector is great. About offices, I worked in
Brentwood for years & don't recommend the place. Too much traffic.
Commercial enterprises took over the ambiance emanating from UCLA.
I recommend you look for an office in Santa Monica. No massage
license required (SI is exempt from the mass. ordinance there). No
vice squad intrusion. Get in touch with Karlis Ullis, MD in Santa
Monica. Karlis works with Rolfers, actively refers and his office can
handle insurance for you...

After I had been working a few years after my advance class I felt I
knew the recipe pretty well and started testing it. I did everything
backwards, inside out & broke all the rules & you know what? It still
worked! As long as you are systematic about your approach, you'll do
fine.

Dr. Rolf, in one of her lect. demos for the public -done during a
basic class I took in Boulder- broke all the rules she had
emphatically laid out in class. When asked the next morning (What
The???!!!) she responded that she did what the body needed and that
when we had been working as long as she had, we'd be able to do that
too. The recipe is a teaching tool. An alphabet that we make words
with & later on, simple declarative sentences. The poetry & prose
takes longer.

How long have you been working? During my advanced class one focus
was on making up one's own series.

I've probably mentioned this before, but the best place in LA to learn
more is the Page Museum. Become a volunteer and learn from
sabertoothed cats, ground sloths & bison bones. Comparative anatomy
is where it is at!

Happy New Year,

Richard
