BASIC COURSE SHIATSU AND DO-IN
 
       
       
   

‘Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
The soul that rises with us, our life’s star,
Hath had elsewhere it’s setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness…..’.


William Wordsworth

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
       
     
  In winter 2009 (8th January) we are going to be starting our new beginners course "basic shiatsu".  
     
 

During the lesson we will go into the basics of shiatsu, what shiatsu is and how shiatsu is practiced. Through finger and palm pressure you can learn to give a basic treatment to family and friends, but also to experience the benefits yourself during the lessons. Shiatsu is practiced fully clothed.

What to expect during the course.

We will go into the basics of shiatsu and specific points, positions and stretches done with the hands. These exercises are called, kata’s. every lesson will start with do-in, also called , “Do it yourself shiatsu.” This is a warming up for doing shiatsu and for general health and wellbeing. (if you would like more information look, under do-in on this website)
