AIS course

Just heard an online presentation of AIS by Aaron Mattes. Was wondering if anyone knows where I might study this technique in the Los Angeles area. Appreciate any feedback.

Comment by Daniel Cohen on May 31, 2011 at 12:00am: If you can't find AIS classes nearby but are interested in the technique try studying a traditional martial arts healing. The technique of quick relaxed isolated stretch is found in chinese (gung fu), korean (hapkido), japanese (ju jitsu) healing arts. It is one of hundreds of techniques that have been used in the martial arts for hundreds of years. Masters of these martial arts can be found in Los Angeles. I am not sure what is unique to the AIS Aaron Mattes method but the photos and descriptions found online are very similar to the traditional techniques I mentioned. If you want specifically this branded modality you might look for a therapist in your area here http://www.stretchingusa.com/aistherapists.cfm
