Project Description

 

 

January 2024 Update:

Some of you know that the city of Santa Monica has decided to tear down the building we are in at the airport complex, they recently moved up the tear down date from next year to this year and because of this, they are not willing to start a new agreement with us as new owners of IPSB. This has put us in a very challenging situation as we were originally planning on staying put for a few months to raise money before we move. It means we have to move ASAP.
We have found a building and are in the early stages of negotiating to move there!!!! We will post updates when it's all finalized, including pics and invites to events. It is beautiful and will be the first actual HOME IPSB School of Integrative Psycho-Structural Bodywork has ever had. It is on the west side still and in a lovely walkable area. At nearly 11,000 square feet this building is a dream. A substantial portion of it is already built out so we will be able to move and continue functioning as we have been and get our store set up while we build out the larger classrooms and Wellness Center.
A big thank you to everyone who wrote us a letter of endorsement to share our beautiful community with the landlords so they could see how many of you believe in this dream with us and would benefit from the Wellness Center. We gathered more than 130 letters to send them and more are still coming in!!!
We need your help to raise money immediately.
This building is just under 11,000 square feet and will require a substantial build out that we estimate to cost around $500,000 (with more needed to sustain us during the build) BUT it will give us the Wellness Center we have all dreamt about for years. We are meeting over the next few weeks with potential investors and would be grateful for any introductions to anyone interested in being a part of this. If you know someone, please introduce us.
In the meantime, we have a few weeks left on our crowd funding event here and now that we have a specific location and a goal of a move in date that is weeks rather than months away it is more urgent than ever that we reach our goals. Every little bit counts.
For those of you who have contributed already:
Once we have secured the keys to our new location we will have a crowdfunding early preview date so you can be some of the first people to see the new space, see our build out plans and bless the space with your energy. Once we get settled, your swag/gifts and updates will start being sent out. 
 
Please, light a candle, say a prayer, send positive energy, whatever your way of reaching out to the universe is to help the process of us securing this to be smooth, for all the resources we need to show up easily, and the perfect people who are needed to make it all happen to show up.
 
In the meantime, if you or anyone you know can contribute in any way or if you have ideas for additional ways to fundraise, we want to connect with you. IPSB exists because of this beautiful community that you are all a part of and we are honored to be a part of ensuring it carries on and grows.

 

WHO WE ARE:

IPSB (School of Integrative Psycho Structural Bodywork)

Founded in 1979, we are a community-focused massage school that has trained massage therapists and bodyworkers with the highest standards of ethics, safety, and integrity. Serving  Los Angeles and beyond for over 40 years, we have created a legion of bodyworkers who consistently bring these values to their practices. IPSB's proven approach, emphasizing proper body mechanics, allows our students to have careers that span decades longer than most massage therapists. 

 

Proudly LGBTQIA+ and woman-owned, IPSB is committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and supportive space for our students, alumni, and local community. IPSB is newly owned by long-time teachers Sabrina and Cyndi Ortolano who have been an integral part of IPSB for many years, first as students, then teachers, and most recently, as school director and curriculum director. This rich involvement has allowed them to develop a vision for what IPSB can truly be, not just a school, but a collective hub for students, practitioners, caregivers, essential healthcare workers, neighbors, and friends. 

 

WHAT WE ARE RAISING MONEY FOR:

Expand The School, Open A Wellness Clinic

During the pandemic, IPSB made the decision to downsize our facility space and move our theory and anatomy classes online. This allowed us to continue serving our students while keeping our entire staff employed. We have been operating in person again for two years now, and demand for our classes has rebounded. In fact, many of our largest classes are regularly waitlisted now. We are back to pre-pandemic enrollment, but are now severely limited by lack of space. Additionally, IPSB recently learned that our current facility will be demolished in early 2025 to make way for a recreation complex. The time is now to expand and meet our potential.  

 

IPSB has recently been offered a beautiful new space that will not only accommodate our increasing student demand, but will also allow us to open a wellness clinic to the general public. This clinic will bring life-changing, accessible and ongoing care to our students, alumni, and community at large. 

 

WHAT WE STAND FOR:

Career Longevity - Healer Heal Thyself

Bodywork is among the professions with the highest rate of work-related injury. A whopping 78% of massage therapists will be afflicted with repetitive motion injuries while on the job. IPSB believes that we, as bodyworkers, must care for ourselves first, in order to best care for our communities. While the average career lifespan for massage therapists is 3-5 years, IPSB trains practitioners who have decades-long careers with no injury. Through extensive training in Tai Chi and proper body mechanics, IPSB graduates experience some of the lowest rates of work-related injuries in the industry. 

 

In addition to our long-standing training practices, we have a host of innovative ideas that will improve health and safety standards for bodyworkers in LA and wherever our graduates take root.  Moving into a larger, more dynamic space will allow us to implement these ideas, expanding the myriad ways we can support student and alumni wellness.

 

 

Support Community - Humans Need Collectivism To Thrive 

Bodywork is often a solo occupation by nature. As a result, it is common for massage therapists to suffer from feelings of isolation and lack of a peer-based community in their day-to-day life, heightening the risk of career burnout. This new space will be Los Angeles’s first large-scale community center of its kind, serving bodyworkers, providing ongoing peer support, lifelong instructor guidance, continuing education, and career resources. Bodywork sessions, yoga classes, assisted stretching, enrichment workshops, and other resources will be offered through a membership format to ensure that  ongoing self-care and support services are available at affordable rates.

 

Commitment to Giving Back - Mutual Aid Is The Only Real Way To Affect Change

One of our core principles is giving back. We can only do the work that we do because we are part of a greater collective. By offering bodywork services to historically underserved members of our community, through partnerships with neighborhood organizations across Los Angeles, we try to contribute everything we can toward building a more equitable and loving world. We have a robust group of volunteers who donate their time to support groups they feel strongly about. These range, in part, from families experiencing housing challenges, to first responders (in partnership with the LA Fire Department), the LGBTQIA+ community (in partnership with the LA Gay & Lesbian Center), and animal rights (in partnership with Walk For The Underdog and Wags and Walks). 

 

With some of our funding, IPSB plans to establish a new equity-focused nonprofit organization. This will allow us to expand our impact in several ways. First, we will be able to extend our volunteer efforts, reaching an ever-larger swath of the community by allowing us to work more closely with other nonprofits to partner in bringing bodywork and the IPSB trainings to the groups they serve.

 

WHAT YOUR DONATION WILL ALLOW US TO DO

Move into our new home 

 

The administrative area, the store and one area that can be used as a classroom are in great shape and will allow us to move ASAP and continue business operations as we are currently functioning. This is going to make the transition a little easier and allow it to happen sooner. 

 

 

However, the rest of the building will require a substantial build out, we will be have 13 treatment rooms, a yoga/movement studio, an assisted stretch and strength training room, 3 large classrooms, staff spaces, administrative spaces and a retail store. There is dedicated parking and it is located in a walkable neighborhood surounded by great restaurants, near the Marina. Long term we will add a salt sauna, a steam sauna, a cold plunge and showers/changing rooms.

Establish our Nonprofit

This will only require a small percentage of funds raised, and will provide an enormous return. We will be able to formalize the nonprofit, and bring on a qualified alumna of the school to develop a strategic plan and organizational vision, grow our volunteer program, write grant proposals, and build an advisory board. 

 

We appreciate your time and generosity as we evolve into our purpose to provide a safe and supportive space for an even wider community here in Los Angeles. Thank you!
