Online courses are taught by Earl Cook, an instructor certified by the International Kinesiology College (IKC) and the US Touch for Health Kinesiology Association (TFHKA). Earl was awarded the IKC John Thie Award in 2010 and was TFHKA Instructor of the Year, 2016-2017.
In April 2025, Earl was presented the award for training the most students online for the second year in a row at the 50th TFHKA annual conference. With the Pandemic, we had to make a huge leap from in-person live training to online, live training. We have been very pleased with the outcomes. Classes are also very interesting with students from all around the world taking the TFH 1-4 courses with us.
Earl’s wife, Gail, assists with the classes. The couple was first introduced to Touch for Health in 1976 and have used TFH thousands of times over the years in addressing their own aches, pains, health maintenance, and personal development.
Touch for Health is one of the world’s most popular self-help modalites. TFH is based upon the personal responsibility and educational model. Touch for Health is a safe, non-diagnostic, protocol used by lay people as well as professionals in a variety of disciplines. TFH is the foundation for many modalities that have sprung from these techniques and knowledge.
There is no prerequisite for TFH 1. These classes are attended by housewives wanting to better care for their family as well as professionals wanting to expand their knowledge and skills. TFH classes are also attended by: Massage Therapists; Registered Nurses; Counselors; Psychologists and Therapists; Chiropractors; Physicians; Acupuncturists; and a variety of energy practitioners.
There is something valuable to learn for everyone. Commonly heard in our TFH classes are, "Wow!", "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"
