About our Events

Our Teaching Approach

At Dreamspace, we believe learning happens best through practice, discussion, and guidance. We create a safe, inclusive classroom where every student feels supported and encouraged to participate.

We honor all learning styles and neurodiversity, use gender-neutral language, and welcome feedback. Cultural sensitivity and kindness guide everything we do.

Our classes are intentionally small for personalized attention, with a flexible and comfortable atmosphere. You’re free to move, fidget, or stand as needed, and conversations remain professional yet engaging.

Participation is always by choice. Speaking is optional, body modeling is voluntary, and consent is central to every demonstration. Experiencing bodywork firsthand is encouraged, as it deepens understanding and practice.

Our teaching is practical, evidence-based, and rooted in clear, everyday language. We provide resources and references, welcome all questions, and distinguish between research-based methods and more esoteric traditions. Stories help memory, but evidence leads the way.

We emphasize connection, collaboration, and hands-on practice over lectures or slides. Workbooks, handouts, and updated video links extend learning beyond class.

Above all, we want every student to leave confident, skilled, and connected to a supportive community of peers. Together, we make learning both meaningful and enjoyable.

Essie is very knowledgeable of the subject and explained techniqes in a simple way. I initially signed up for this course because I was not confident in side-lying massage. This class gave me a lot of confidence and I'm excited to tell my chiropractor to send the pregnant patients my way! Thank you!

Item We keep our classes small so you get the best learning experience. To make that possible, we need clear policies that are fair to you and also help us cover costs if someone has to cancel last minute.

Registration

• Your payment holds your spot.

• We recommend registering early — seats are limited!

If You Need to Cancel

• 30+ days before class → Full refund (minus $25 admin fee) OR full credit for a future class.

• 15–29 days before class → 50% refund OR 75% credit for a future class.

• 14 days or less → No refund, but if we can fill your spot, you’ll get 50% credit for a future class.

• No-shows → Sorry, no refunds or credits.

Substitutions

If We Cancel

• If we need to cancel or reschedule, you’ll get your choice of a full refund or full credit.

• Travel and lodging aren’t covered, so please book refundable options when possible.

Emergencies

• We understand that life happens! For serious emergencies, contact us and we’ll do our best to work with you.

• What if I wake up sick?
  We know it happens! If you’re too sick to attend, please let us know before class starts. While we can’t give refunds on the day of class, we’ll give you a 50% credit toward a future course (good for up to 12 months). This way you can still take care of yourself and not lose your entire payment.description
