STAGGS ROLFING - Key Persons
My first career out of college was that of a college professor teaching psychology. During the summers when I was not teaching, I traveled extensively throughout the United States and Canada. While visiting in California at Esalen Institute in Big Sur, I heard about a woman named Ida P. Rolf, who had developed a program for reorganizing the human body to make it more stress-free and help return the structure to a more normal posture and balance. As a participant in a workshop at Easlen, I was invited to experience a session of the Structural Integration, or Rolfing™, technique. At that time, Ida Rolf was visiting and teaching in Big Sur. The first session literally changed my life.
