  • Workshop Bonus
    As a bonus in these holistic animal classes, we teach students the basics of kinesiology, also called muscle testing. This is an incredible technique everyone should know that can benefit themselves, their family, and their animals. Some students have said learning this alone is worth the price of the workshop. This does not replace the all day workshop, but is an introduction.
