www.roperpt.com Start a yoga therapy business, PYTA, with my best friend of 20+ years who I so admire and respect, design and build a PYT yoga studio, build a PYT yoga therapy mission statement and website, quickbooks program, design and implement 6 different categories of PYT classes, hire and office manager and train her on placing people in appropriate classes and paperwork, teach and run at our studio 8 classes a week, interview a PT/YOGA and hire her to complete Ginger’s program and teach for our company. I have also been consulted to work as a “train the trainer” for our local swimming clubs in PYT YOGA and PT.....this is my next project to build.
This was written in my exit exam, which I haven't looked at in 8 years! I am excited to say that Ginger will be at our studio for the first time this November 2nd and 3rd (2019) doing what I projected many years ago. How Timely! I have had several of her students and graduates as my employees since then. Ginger your program has changed my life for the good. And to think I found you in Advance magazine(Really?) looking for EMR for my PT business. I am so grateful for you and your crazy diligence and attention to detail and love of life. I am hopeful that I pass this test because it literally almost killed me and I am hoping that you will
accept what I have accomplished with PYTA as my Case competency for graduation. I do believe our credentials should read, PYT1000. That would be my only recommendation for a change in your school. I am hopeful that someday you will come to teach my fellow classmates at our studio soon. Lovingly, Christine
