CLASS VOUCHER!
We have a new USTA membership benefit - a “voucher” which members can use this year at specific classes! These voucher classes are generous gifts from Instructors and others who have offered to teach a class day (or part of a day) for free or for a reduced fee.
We wanted you to know about the first class accepting this “voucher”! Practitioners and Students who have already taken three days of Mentastics® can take advantage of a $150 discount for:
Mentastics® with Roger Tolle (Laura Lynn Giubardo assisting)
Burlington VT, Feb 21 - 23, 2020
More information is at the bottom of the email
Other members have also volunteered to teach voucher classes, and we’ll let you know details once the classes are scheduled. We’re all working to imbue USTA membership with significant value!
REDUCED STUDENT DUES!
The USTA Board is excited about changes we’re making and member benefits we’re offering. We've agreed recently to reduce Student dues drastically - from $140 per year to $100 paid with Level 1 to cover two years of membership (and $50 annually after that)! Students renewing this year will only pay $50 dues!
FREE WEBSITE FOR YOU!
Have you looked into another member benefit, the free website available to each Practitioner? You’ll only need to provide basic information about yourself for this option. You can find out more about this on the Members Only page of the USTA website (located under the “Discover Trager” tab).

GARY BROWNLEE VIDEOS!
Also on the Members Only page, Practitioners can view videos of former Instructor Gary Brownlee working with a client with Parkinson's. The password to view these videos is practitioner.
DISCOUNTED LIABILITY INSURANCE!
USTA is now able to provide Trager Practitioners with the option to purchase a professional liability insurance policy for their Trager Practice for only $99 per year. Only those Trager Practitioners who practice in states that do not also require you to be a Massage Therapist are eligible for this new policy. This policy provides coverage up to $2,000,000 per claim with a $6,000,000 aggregate.
If you would like to apply for this new professional liability insurance policy, please email Renae Davies at exec@tragerus.org. Only current, paid Trager Practitioner members are eligible, so be sure that you have renewed your 2020 membership.
We have more ideas for growing the Trager® community, so stay tuned for more!
