Tammy’s tutoring tip:
Create your own flashcards! “Condense your classroom handout material by making flash cards. In creating flashcards, you will be reciting the material. The finished product (the flash cards) re easy to travel with throughout your daily activities for a quick review in any downtime you have available.”
The Soma Institute hosted its Winter Graduation at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, January 31, 2010 at the Fairmont Hotel. Graduating classes included 0810D, 0811D, 0808E, 0901D, 0902D and the 2009 Master Program.
Barry Wright, Director of Professional Services, began the ceremony with an opening proclamation followed by a greeting from President and Founder, Joan Hannant. Following this, the valedictorians from each graduating class read their speeches to the 600+ audience of fellow students, faculty, staff, friends and family.
The ceremony closed with final advice and closing remarks from Mike Hovi, the Clinical Massage Therapy Program Director and Ellen Letten, the Master Clinical Massage Therapy Program Director. Soma’s Winter Graduation was a beautiful and memorable ceremony that will be cherished by all in the Soma community.
Congratulations to all of Soma’s graduates! Pictures of the graduation ceremony to come!

Tammy’s tutoring tip:
Students in CMT I: “Students and new therapists have a tendency to maneuver quickly when practicing their skills and treating clients. Slow down and you will be amazed with how your strokes will have a greater effect and will be better received.”
On Sunday, January 17, a Soma graduate was featured on NBC Chicago, performing a treatment at The Peninsula Spa by ESPA. The segment provided viewers options of what they could do in the city after work. One of these options was a relaxing spa treatment. Melissa Chmielewski, Soma graduate of the 2003 September Evening/Weekend Program, was filmed giving the Peninsula’s unique Uplifting Mint Experience treatment to the host of the program.
“The current spa management team asked if I would be interested in doing some filming for the piece. I have been working at The Peninsula Spa for over three years,” states Melissa. “It is a great place to work and I truly appreciate and enjoy my job with The Peninsula Spa by ESPA!”
The Soma Institute congratulates Melissa on this exciting experience, and we wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors!
