The Duggan/French Approach
Somatic Pattern Recognition
The body process is not linear, it is circular; always, it is circular.
One thing goes awry, and its effects go on and on and on and on.
A body is a web, connecting everything with everything else.
- Ida P. Rolf, Ph.D.

DFA Training Program: Application Process
Program Specifications | Requirements for Admission | Application Process
  1. A FORMAL LETTER OF APPLICATION.
    Please indicate your experience with DFA work, why you want to become a DFA practitioner, any other knowledge you might have that would be applicable to this work, the nature of your interest and your plans regarding a full-time dedication to DFA.

  2. CURRICULUM VITAE
    Education and work experience (with dates), hobbies, teaching experience, personal data to include date of birth, height, weight, mail address, email address and telephone number/s

  3. PERSONAL ESSAY
    The following questions have been designed to give you the opportunity to explore and demonstrate your awareness of your personal process. Because we have names we tend to think of ourselves as nouns (things); think of yourself as a verb (a continuous process). Write a brief autobiography of yourself as a process... where do you come from, where are you and where do you see yourself going. Include an evaluation of your strong points and weak points. How would you like to see your life develop? Please be quite candid. (Type or write in capital letters).

    • A) How do your strong and weak points affect your ability to relate to others?

    • B) Indicate any trauma that has been important in your life. Include any extraordinary circumstances of birth, lesions, surgery, chronic or grave diseases (with dates). Women should include pregnancies, abortions (spontaneous or provoked), and extraordinary aspects of giving birth (with dates).

    • C) What spiritual and psychological processes have been especially valuable for you? Include group experiences, type and duration of personal therapy (with dates). Briefly, state how they served you. Do you believe you have enough knowledge and understanding of you own process to have the freedom to facilitate that of another? What experience led you to apply for admission into the DFA training program?
