The International BodyTalk Association has established standards of practice for BodyTalk that involve the passing of exams and practicals, supervised practicals and continuing education requirements.  Although many thousands of people have learned BodyTalk, not all of these people have gone on to take the appropriate exams and participate in the continuing education programs.   Should you wish to receive sessions, the IBA (International BodyTalk Association) recommends consulting the practitioner listing on the IBA website to ensure that you choose a Certified BodyTalk Practitioner who meets the standard requirements of The BodyTalk System. There are geographical search tools to find the nearest qualified practitioners.  There are different levels of practitioners and here is a synopsis to help you understand the International BodyTalk Association Certification process. The Utah BodyTalk Association lists practitioners who are certified at the basic level and up to ensure professional integrity and service.
