Free-Motion Mastery in a Month Teacher Certification Program

Free-Motion Mastery in a Month gives students a plan to succeed . . .
FMM30 Teacher Training gives TEACHERS a plan to succeed!

There is nothing more gratifying for a teacher than to see your students succeed! That's what is so exciting about teaching Free-Motion Mastery in a Month classes -- students leave the classroom having succeeded far beyond what they ever thought possible -- in just a few hours.

What makes Free-Motion Mastery in a Month different from other approaches to learning free-motion quilting? While other approaches focus on patterns, Free-Motion Mastery in a Month goes deeper to focus on body mechanics -- teaching the body how to move to quilt a pattern.

It's something so basic and simple that it gets overlooked. But when you guide your students through the experiential exercises in the Free-Motion Mastery system, the fundamental movements of free-motion quilting come easily and naturally -- and they succeed at free-motion quilting almost instantly!
