We offer family and practitioner classes as well as Metamorphosis with horses, nationwide and abroad. Please visit our calendar to find the class nearest you. If you would like to coordinate a class in your area let us know.

Our approach is to keep Metamorphosis simple, so that it is accessible to all and can easily be brought in the home or professional arena.

Cindy Silverlock

Working with the principles and practice of Metamorphosis helped Cindy find inner strength and well-being. Cindy and Dean met Robert St. John just after they got married. They both attribute their supportive and positive relationship to Metamorphosis. The princples and the practice are the backbone of their relationship. Cindy has been living the work in her daily life for 21 years. Metamorphosis has helped her tremendously with anxiety, addictions and simply coping with life. It is her passion to share this incredible work with others.

Cindy first met and studied with Robert St. John in 1989. She created a newsletter for Robert to spread awareness of his developing work. She also coordinated his final lecture tour in 1996. She is the author of "Metamorphosis, Creating Consciousness Through Touch."

Cindy has been teaching Metamorphosis since 1990 and has taught in the USA and abroad. Her background includes a B.A. in Psychology, training as a doula, in hypnotherapy, massage and Reiki.

Cindy is available to teach or lecture in your area. She has lectured on Metamorphosis at the APPPAH (Association for Pre & Perinatal Psychology & Health) Congress 12/97, Metamorphosis Conference 3/98, RAC (Reflexology Association of California) Conference 10/99, APPPAH Congress 12/99 and the RAA (Reflexology Association of America) Conference 5/00.

Dean Silverlock

Dean is an Australian born Metamorphosis practitioner and certified Reflexologist. Dean loves to assist in the classes - he shares his stories on how Metamorphosis helped him understand and let go of challenging issues in his life. He also uses it as the backbone of his marriage. His stories bring the male perspective and people love his humor and easy-going, happy energy.

Dean presently works in the construction industry and gives Metamorphosis and Reflexology treatments upon request. His warmth, compassion and understanding of Metamorphosis comes through in everything he does. He even brings it to the job - using the understanding of relationship dynamics as a foreman.



Metamorphosis is not a medical or a scientific approach to health and well being. It is an understanding of the way in which we are influenced in our inheritance of the past and the way in which this influence forms certain attitudes of mind at conception which create an inhibition in our approach to life, modifying our development, both mentally and physically.

It is the introduction of this inhibitory influence before conception which governs the outcome of our mental and physical well being.

Using the spinal reflexes of the feet, hands and head, as well as the more abstract hand symbols, Metamorphosis is a method which brings these "attitudes of mind" into the unconscious focus of the patient and enables them to be their 'own healer' and to revert to the normal pattern of human inheritance.
