I have heard about Alba Emoting. Is the Alba Method the same thing?

Yes. The technique was developed under the name Alba Emoting. Some trainers and practitioners around the world continue to use this name. All Master Teachers of the Alba Method are also CL5 certified teachers of Alba Emoting.


WILL I HAVE TO DIG INTO MY PSYCHOLOGICAL PAST OR REVEAL PERSONAL ISSUES DURING THE COURSE?

No. The Alba Method is an entirely physical method of accessing and controlling genuine emotion. A teacher certified in the Alba Method will not ask you to recall or share any information about your emotional history or personal life circumstances.


How long is a course?

The length of beginning level courses typically range between 10 and 30 instructor contact hours. Most students will require a minimum of 30 hours of training before being endorsed for independent self-use. Intermediate and advanced training can be delivered in a variety of formats, ranging from two-hour class sessions to full 30-hour intensives. Many students choose to take multiple mixed-level intensives to deepen and refine their training.


At the end of a beginning course, what will I be able to do?

Learning rates vary depending on emotional readiness and previously developed physical awareness and control. A 30-hour intensive is structured to allow most or all participants to develop sufficient understanding and technical command to use the patterns independently. Students enrolled in a 10-hour introductory class will need to take more courses before being considered for an endorsement for self use.


How much does it cost?

Cost for instruction in the Alba Method is determined by individual teachers. Tuition will vary depending on location, instructional expenses, and class size.
