Flexibility beyond stretching
Practitioner Training Program (License)
The Somax Practitioner Training Program consists of 480 hours of instruction in Somax training methods over a period of four months. The applicant who successfully completes our training program will be issued a 20-year license to use our proprietary methods of analysis and improvement. Unlike a franchise, there are no geographic or fee restrictions. The only restrictions are 1. that anyone to whom our methods are disclosed must sign a confidentiality agreement and 2. that our methods will not be taught to others for any reason without prior written permission of Somax. Applicants who wish to use our trade and service marks can do so for a yearly quality review fee.
Curriculum
The curriculum includes instruction in our proprietary analysis of the major participant sports (running, swimming, golf, tennis, baseball, basketball, football, soccer, and martial arts) and daily activities (walking, standing and breathing), Microfiber Reduction, Tension Reduction, Stress Reduction, biomechanics and connective tissue anatomy. Also included is a full dissection for connective tissue.
Examples of our sports analysis can be found under Analyses of Top Athletes. Examples of the results of our program can be found under Clients and Testimonials. Our elite athletes have won 44 Gold Medals and set 11 World Records. Our professional golfers have won open championships, improved their ranking in putting average from #113 to #1, set PGA scoring records, and increased their longest drive from 295 to 400. Our runners usually cut a minute per mile off their running pace, and tennis players add 20+ mph to their serve.
