The Birth of Distant Learning Courses

Thirty years ago, I pioneered distant learning courses in Ortho-Bionomy.

Since then, I've refined these courses to ensure they are not only comprehensive but also engaging and meaningful, supporting both professional and personal development.

Stay Tuned For the Next Rendition:

Soon my courses will be offered on a new platform called Xperiencify: here, engaging and interactive course design keeps you motivated and inspired, ensuring you stay on track to achieve your goals while enjoying your learning experience every step of the way.

My extensive training has equipped me with a diverse array of tools to address the myriad issues that arise for both students and clients. Equally, if not more important, is the wisdom I've gained from my own journey of healing trauma and overcoming numerous illnesses. Having faced more than one near-death experience, combined with a dedicated spiritual practice, I've come to deeply appreciate the preciousness of human life and the profound opportunity we all have to make a positive impact in the world.

I currently live in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada in California on a 155-acre off-grid property with my Beloved and our amazing dog.

My Mission:

To guide aspiring Ortho-Bionomy and bodywork practitioners on a transformative journey—helping them become skilled, confident, and heart-centered professionals and more balanced, compassionate and happy human beings. I support students in developing not only technical proficiency but also the inner resilience, empathy, and authenticity needed to build thriving private practices and market their work from a place of genuine service

"I took both the Ethics & Emotions and the Practitioner Training Seminar through Bettina's distant learning courses. The material was meaty and offered a good opportunity to explore issues and situations practitioners might not otherwise have. The questions really helped me delve deeply into my own views and feelings. In many ways, the courses helped me more clearly define how Ortho-Bionomy® will fit into my life and practice."

"Bettina’s Communications class was better than I expected and I would definitely do another online workshop with her.

It is great that Bettina does not expect “wrong or right” answers. Rather she wants to see that you participated in the work, and learned something useful

Bettina is very knowledgeable and offered valuable tools and advice on how to handle those challenging scenarios with clients that I have encountered.

Thank you for offering a very thought provoking class! It certainly brought a new light to the psychology aspect of bodywork, which I have always been interested in."
