Introduction
The Institute of Taoist Education and Acupuncture (ITEA) Program teaches the oral tradition of Classical Five-Element Acupuncture (CF-EA) in limited class sizes to ensure the highest learning quality. The ITEA educational experience is unique and transformational. It is based on the spiral approach of traditional Eastern learning, where an idea is visited again and again from different viewpoints and in increasingly greater depth. As in Eastern education, our faculty are not merely dispensers of intellectual knowledge but are guides who help each student uncover the wisdom inherent within nature and themselves.
In our school of acupuncture, students are trained to diagnose clients' state by discerning energetic harmony and disharmony. This is done through the subtle and highly refined observational cues of color, sound, odor, and emotional content, as was done by the ancient Chinese. Refinement comes from spiral learning, which imbues students with ever-deepening skills in using these forms of diagnosis.
