Level Up is starting to dive more into teaching as a way to give back to the community and better help future generations from both a practitioner and client perspective.
This year I'll be diving into teaching finances and how to grow a small business for LMT's or other practitioners. I will also be teaching a cupping course specifically for massage therapy students still in their respective programs. This means i'll be taking a small break from teaching the general public.
Financial Literacy an:d Wealth Building for Massage Therapist
Throughout my career I have started running into massage therapist who work full time or are self-employed and either take out predatory payday loans, live paycheck to paycheck, and have nothing in retirement. Thus, with what I feel is a necessity this class was born to help healthcare practitioners live a better life.
The best part about this first one and maybe future ones......... It's free. I honestly just want to give back to the community and help people receive the proper education and live their best life financially and know they can retire when they decide.

The 1st and 3rd portion of this class will focus on teaching massage therapist the basics of finance including
Compound interest
Budgeting
High Vs Low Interest Debt
Emergency funds
Tax Advantaged Accounts
Basic investing

The 2nd portion of the class is focused on starting and growing a business including:
basic documentation:

Basics
Creating your Dream Business
Basics & Government Documentation
Banking & Receiving Payment
Pricing & Scheduling
Gross Income, Expenses, & Net
Allocating Money: Retirement, taxes, paychecks
Growth
Website
Online Booking
Email Services
Search Engine Optimization (SEO’s)
Advertising & Social Media
Reviews & Feedback

Cupping Therapy for Massage Therapy Students
One of my favorite passions and skills in massage therapy is cupping therapy. Typically this would be a 12 hour two day course for massage therapists. However this time I am planning to work with discovery school of massage therapy to teach students still going through the program basics for cupping to develop interest early on in their career.

Why do I love cupping (aka massage cupping)
Decompress fascial layers
Relax muscles
increase blood flow
Stimulate the lymphatic system
Work on scar tissue and adhesions
Help remove stagnation

At Level Up I am continuously looking for ways to give back to the community and help future and current massage therapists. Hopefully in the future there will be even more classes.
Thank you everyone for the support!
