Lucknow. One month extended training.

Introduction:

The training is aimed at intensive training, practical skills training, personal growth and supervision of therapy of participants. The internships are also an attempt to offer much more value for money. Participants receive about a month’s training at the cost of around 4 days of short workshops.
