“As a teacher I am passionate about the growth, development and the sustainability of your shiatsu practice.” 

 

The most profound healing does not come from what we do, but from where we meet the receiver. When we step beyond technique, shiatsu becomes a living, unfolding dialogue born from pure presence.

​

This advanced post-graduate course is an invitation to genuinely transform your practice and your experience of shiatsu. The course supports a deepening into your own embodied presence, inviting a more natural, authentic, and liberated way of practicing. It is designed for practitioners ready to explore more fully, how the quality of their own embodied being, directly impacts and deepens the healing potential of every touch.

​

For me, Shiatsu is soul work infused with our spiritual essence and the love that is at the core of who we are.

 

The Core Vision

​

We often default to operating from a habitual professional self, relying on familiar patterns and intellectualised diagnoses. While these have value, they can inadvertently distance us from the raw, vibrant reality of the current moment.

 

This training shifts the focus from fixing to meeting, from doing to being. By cultivating a deeply rooted, authentic presence, you learn to step out of the way. In that space of quiet joy and inner peace, your original nature shines through, allowing your shiatsu to emerge naturally from a deeper ground of presence.

​

• Embodied Aliveness: Transition from 'doing' shiatsu to 'being' both witness and participant in the shiatsu's spontaneous unfolding  
   

• Relational Depth: Learn to hold the space between yourself, the receiver, and the underlying source animating both
   

• Authentic Sensitivity: Develop a profound, intuitive touch that treats every moment as fresh, unique, and alive

 

What We Will Explore

​

This course is highly practical, experiential, and deeply collaborative. Together, we will form a supportive container to look at the traditional foundations of shiatsu through a radically expanded lens. This work honours the essence of Zen Shiatsu and the spirit of the Tao in a most grounded and embodied way.

​

• Trusting Emergence: Leaning into the unfolding mystery, allowing your original nature and essential self to shine through.  
   

• Relational Depth & Therapeutic Connection: Exploring the non-dual dimension of shiatsu, where the usual boundaries between giver, receiver and the healing process begin to soften, revealing the simple suchness of the present moment

​

• Working with different modes of being in the shiatsu from utter stillness and peaceful presence to dynamic and passionate, fierce presence as the moment demands

• Working creatively and compassionately with what arises within your inner space as emotions, thoughts, sensations and images
   

• Working with all aspects of shiatsu, embracing them in a radically new way. This includes Diagnosis, Yin/Yang, Kyo/Jitsu, Meridian and Point work
   

• The Five elements will weave in and out, as called, as will all principles essential to good shiatsu practice.
   

• Empowering Dialogue: Utilising verbal communication that speaks directly to the core of what is seeking birth and blossoming in the receiver
  
  This course provides an excellent opportunity for continuing professional development for qualified Shiatsu practitioners
