TRAINING PROGRAM SCHEDULE FOR TRAINING YEAR 2026-2027

Al Lowen's - Character Structures

Do not buy your plane tickets yet. There may be some schedule adjustments!  
 

The “classroom” portion of the Training Program for Training Year 2026 - 2027 shall consist of seven (7) two day Training Periods (held on Saturday and Sunday).  The locations of the trainings will be announced.

Training Program Schedule - 2026– 2027 DSBA's Somatic Relational Psychotherapy presents “Character Structures" as described by Dr Alexander Lowen. 

Bioenergetic Analysis is a holistic form of psychotherapy that works with a person's physical, emotional, and intellectual patterns as a means to foster the client's well-being and increased aliveness. Bioenergetic Analysis seeks to bring about the conscious integration of mind and body, therefore, the focus is both on the psychological issues presented and the manifestation of these issues as shown in the individual's body, energy, and movement. Patterns of muscular tension reflect an individual's emotional history and include such things as early childhood relationships with caregivers, physical and emotional trauma, and the extent to which self development was possible.

This year we will focus on body reading and interventions for each of the five character structures. 

You will also learn physical interventions that are helpful to work on blocks to return the body to the pulsation of healthy life force.

Testimonials:
One therapist, Mary, states, "When I come home from a training weekend, I come home a better therapist for my clients, a better wife for my husband, a better mother for my daughters, a better friend for my friends, a better sister for my siblings, a better daughter fo rmy parents, but most importantly, a better me for myself.
Even though I was exhausted from the long travel, I could not wait to see clients and practice / share what I learned. So, I would add that while the training weekends are intesnives, they leave me feeling energized."
