Online SOBI Sponsored Study Groups
The Society of Ortho-Bionomy International sponsors monthly Online Study Groups. They are primarily in a conference call format and are taught by various Registered Ortho-Bionomy Instructors via Zoom.
Our Study Groups cover a variety of topics and also count towards the study group requirements in the Practitioner and Advanced Practitioner Training Programs.
The receipt received upon registration will have a link to download the handout, any preview materials and the Zoom link. Be sure you have these materials available before you login to the study group.
There is a limit to class size, so be sure to register early.
After a group finishes, all attendees will be emailed an evaluation form for that session. To receive study group credit attendees will need to keep their cameras on during the study group and complete and submit the evaluation form within two weeks.
Recordings of select past study groups are also available in the SOBI Bookstore.
The study groups are a full three hours, with no credit given for homework time.
Out of respect for the Instructor and the other students please be on time for the study group.
