Honing masterful skills in the time it takes you to eat lunch.
bringing the Lunch & Learn experience online
bringing Lunch & Learn micro-courses
to Massage Therapists on the go!
A relatively new approach to education known as microlearning is quickly becoming the new bite-sized, short course offering. Microlearning focuses on breaking up large chunks of information into smaller, more manageable chunks. It is filtered in a way that significantly reduces the amount of subject matter and provides the student concise and easy-to-absorb information.
In the time it takes for your lunch break, you will have honed your skills, reviewed your knowledge base and gained new insights into the structures you just studied.
And the best part: you can transfer those skills immediately with your next client!
Course content is specifically designed for the Massage Therapist's skill sets and learning needs.
Every Lunch & Learn course follows the same lesson plan format. This consistency promotes better learning outcomes, reduces anxiety (you know what you're getting) and clearly outlines teaching expectations each time a course is delivered.
The world is on the go, and massage therapists are looking for flexible, cost effective and easy to access engagement in self-paced learning.
Through mobile microeducation, learners can access course materials anywhere with an internet connection - making it convenient and flexible to participate in on-demand lessons.
Microlearning can lead to increased productivity through improved knowledge retention (25-60%), and better task performance.
FLEXIBLE + ACCESSIBLE 24/7: This ‘self-serve’ learning approach empowers the MT to personalize on-demand learning whenever and wherever they need it.
TIME SAVINGS: The concise content developed for these courses free the MT from having to sift through dense, time-consuming content online or in reference manuals.
COST SAVINGS: No need to reschedule clinic time, or incur travel and equipment costs.
LEARN MORE: Benefit from concise and clear information. Studies show higher retention rates and better learning outcomes online vs. in-class.
STRESS LESS: On-demand learning honours the MT's preferences and considers their work and learning environment.
There are several scenarios where you may be interested in learning, reviewing, or simply deep diving into some content.
These courses are on-demand, and allow you the flexibility to take one as you need or want it.
Additionally, every course includes access to The LunchBox Café,a private online community with fellow course members. Ask questions, share your stories, and enjoy benefiting from the encouragement and wisdom of others.
For example, an MT can review a short instructional video for a specific task or anatomical area before performing it so they can refresh their minds on how it is done.
For the MT that is looking to refresh their knowledge and/or skill set on a particular area or muscle grouping, the on-demand MasterClass is a good option.
The Learning Series could be an introduction to a new area of focus or a review of a specific compensation dysfunction for the MT to consider.
by the addition of 3D anatomy animations, graphics, and video footage powered by Muscle & Motion.
As a sponsor, Muscle & Motion shares a vision with LBU in revolutionizing the learning experience for massage therapists and body workers everywhere!
The material on kinesiology and anatomy can be complex and difficult to teach using only books and pictures.
By weaving in these powerful graphics into the course materials and presentation, the learning experience is enhanced and interactive for LBU students.
Learning is a social activity in itself.
Once you purchase the course, you will be given access to the course to visit as your time permits - 24/7.
Access to the course is for 90 days from purchase. This allows LBU to keep content up-to-date for the students.
Absolutely yes! If you have an idea for a particular muscle/muscle group or syndrome/pathology - we would love to hear from you. In the same spirit, if there are self-care courses that you would like to see, please drop us a line.
