Classes making me exercise
I'm a massage therapist and every non western massage course has me exercising in the class. It's really annoying. I didn't hop on a plane and travel hundreds and sometimes thousands of miles to do yoga. I didn't pay hundreds of dollars to do yoga in a different state or country. I don't want 1/6 of my class time to be me getting to know my body.
Literally none of these classes advertise the excerise part. They all focus on the learning the techniques part. I can understand when the exercise is integral to the culture of the type of massage like flying in Lomi Lomi. Otherwise just stick to the techniques I'm paying to learn.
