January Learning Lab
It’s Winter Season!
This month we are going to talk about all things Winter season, with a Balance Acupuncture approach. That’s seasonal ailments and issues that we are seeing in our clinics through the lens of Balance Acupuncture with a little bit of humour tossed in.
We’ll begin at 12:00pm PST.
These Learning Labs will be an opportunity to ask questions, go over tricky cases, review a concept or share a success story you are proud of. Mainly it is a fluid setup that will be adjusted to the needs of the attendees.
No two Learning Labs are ever the same!
$5 for the hour, free for members of The Hub (private Tan Academy community), coupon code can be found in The Hub on the Wall.
