The ABMT's Annual General Meeting will be held at the Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education, Beauchamp Lodge, 2 Warwick Crescent, London W2 6NE.  The nearest tubes to the venue are Warwick Avenue (Bakerloo Line) or Paddington.

As usual, the Meeting will run from 11.00 am until 1.00 pm. The Afternoon Session will be from 2.00 pm until 4.00/4.30 pm.

Our Speaker this year will be Jan Trewartha, who came a few years ago to talk about and demonstrate her Scarwork techniques. 
 
Jan is the founder and director of The Fascia Hub and the British Fascia Symposium.  She also runs Body in Harmony Training, focusing on light touch work, especially working with scars and adhesions.

Jan will be presenting a session which revisits this work and its alignment and relationship with Biodynamic Massage. 

The Session will be in person and also on-line. Please let me know ([email protected])  if you would like to attend, and whether you will need a Zoom link. The event is free to members, and £20 to non-members.

There is some further information about Jan, below. I'm sure it will be a very interesting.

More details about Jan:

Jan has been in healthcare since 1979, originally training as a State Registered Nurse in the Queen Alexandra Royal Army Nursing Corps (QARANC), working at grass roots level with patients on the wards and spending time in the operating theatre; a superb if non-deliberate foundation for her future career.  
 
In 1988 Jan took time out to go travelling for three years, where her life was to dramatically change direction. Trained by a blind massage therapist to really ‘feel’ the body led to a lifetime passion for body work.  Her work now is the culmination of many years of training and experience in different disciplines. She has been in practice since 1992 where her clients have been willing guinea pigs in her ongoing development of light touch therapy work.  
 
Jan has been teaching since 1993, and in 2014 became the first accredited UK teacher in Sharon Wheeler’s ScarWork. Having had surgery in Great Ormond St. Hospital as a young child, resulting in major scarring, Jan experienced great relief and lightness after being treated by Sharon Wheeler; this has given her an awareness of the effect of adhesions and empathy with her clients. 
 
Apart from a missionary zeal for spreading the word about the effects of scarring on the body, Jan’s passions are for travelling and for anything that gets her outdoors and moving.
