Sandra Castillo30 said:so I was browsing through this Italian forum earlier... if I actually translated it and posted it here, wiredowl9 might just end it all 🙂 .... so maybe it's best if I don't say anything more ... unless, of course, you want your cars to be Fords but try to cram General Motors engines into them .... that really sums it up.

There's really no reason for me to go that far..
this is just one of many sites out there dedicated to 3M, where everyone claims they're the only authorized experts.
lahor shared a page showing that Bruno Mars is a certified instructor for 3M.
first off, I completed all my training under Bruno Mars—so I have to push back against these baseless accusations about certification.
Second, Bruno was actually the first instructor in Europe to get licensed by the Japanese organization for 3M. A few weeks ago, that Japanese group went bankrupt, and now one branch moved to the USA while others are scattered across Europe. I highly doubt the American Physical Therapy Association would allow an unlicensed instructor to run a course.
I've already sent a formal inquiry to the American Physical Therapy Association to get some clarity on this...

You might have been misinformed on that one... 😂
I honestly don't buy that this is being organized for private interests—not when you consider who's actually behind it...
Regarding the Kinesio Taping Association—where exactly did Natalia take that course? I'm not entirely sure, but if she did, it likely happened through the Kinesio Taping Association itself... And look, I never said Bruno Cosim isn't an instructor... I definitely didn't say he was bad—actually, quite the opposite—I just meant this wasn't a Kinesio Taping COURSE with an official CERTIFICATE from the Kinesio Taping Association, which is the absolute truth...
I don't know what’s been updated or what hasn't—all I care about is knowing what's legitimate, where to get the actual certification, and where the real knowledge comes from... that's my only priority. It seems like you're clearly focused on something else entirely...

Where is Bruno Cosim these days? Honestly, I wouldn't even know... as for getting that course recognized—I don't think the APTA is the one making those calls. It’s probably more up to whoever actually represents the course itself, if I recall correctly... www.kinesiotaping.com ...and if you think anyone's running a shady operation over there... you should probably go take a look for yourself... Check this out—some info regarding international organizations... http://www.kinesiotapingusa.com/international.asp Or just give Paul a call... vent to him if you need to... 🙂

Looks like that post really got you fired up—you must have some kind of beef with Natalia and her husband... or maybe just with me... 🤣🤣🤣🤣 🤣

I don't think I'm misinformed—it’s more like my intuition is kicking in... especially since you have all the details about the course from Natalia Divković, and she hasn't even posted that info on her website yet—the one you showed us in your previous message...

So, Natalia—who’s actually organizing this current course under the organization's umbrella—just finished her Kinesiotaping training with Bruno Cosim... the same guy you're claiming doesn't have a recognized certification...

I just want to understand—how exactly do you think they’ll ban the diploma or certificate here in the States? Who’s going to refuse to recognize it... maybe Natalia Divković? And who even is Natalia Divković? Is she some kind of regulatory body in America that handles credentialing...

I honestly think you and Natalia Divković have completely mixed up your priorities—it feels like you're just playing marketing games to boost your own sales by throwing everyone else under the bus...
That’s just not how you win at life—and I have a feeling Natalia Divković is going to realize that pretty soon...
You're the one who started talking nonsense about Bruno Cosim—I'm not here to get caught up in your terrible marketing of Natalia Divković on this forum... I just need to set the record straight so the general public doesn't walk away with the wrong impression...
Like another forum member pointed out earlier in this thread—there are actually quite a few different International Organizations that host Kinesiotaping workshops, not just the one you're representing...

The Kinesio Taping course led by Bruno Cosim is actually the only officially recognized training program in the country—yet here you are, questioning the legitimacy of the course organized by Natalia Divković over in the States...

You’re basically just giving free advertising to your wife, Natalia Divković, so she can promote her own course for her own benefit...
Wait, what are you even basing this on—that international instructor Bruno Cosim isn't an instructor anymore? Look, Natalia Divković took the Kinesio Taping course from Bruno Cosim. So, does that mean her certification isn't recognized anymore? Honestly, have some shame... you guys are just shooting yourselves in the foot here.
Bruno Cosim moved from the American association your wife promotes over to a European kinesio taping association—so there's no "fraud" involved at all.
And just so you and your wife know—the APTA is the representative body for physical therapy in the US, and they're the ones who validate certifications for continuing education for physiotherapists.
By the way, you also changed the number of training hours—you cut a day off both the first and second levels of Kinesio Taping. It’s pretty obvious the schedule doesn't add up anymore... so we'll be suggesting to the APTA that they don't recognize this education.
