Did you know that Zen Shiatsu can be done effectively by anybody with only 30 hours of training? Would you like to be able to share the gift of bodywork with your friends and loved ones? It’s a great way to relieve stress and maintain relationships!
We offer a Beginning course in Zen Shiatsu that is completely accessible to people of all experience, age and body type. In the course of the class, you will learn how to give an effective full-body treatment, and how to improve your own well-being by giving Zen Shiatsu from a state of relaxation and meditation. Zen Shiatsu is entirely low-impact. In fact, your own health is sure to improve by giving this treatment.
On top of getting training, you will also be receiving bodywork in class! In every class, students have plenty of time for hands-on exchange. So for $500 you will be receiving bodywork at least 10 times in class, in addition to learning how to do it yourself!
In Beginning Zen Shiatsu, we impart the simple ability to be with another human being in a healing context. This class is open to anyone who wants to learn to share this beautiful skill with others.
"If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything. In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities; in the expert's mind there are few." - Shunryu Suzuki, Soto Zen Master
This class is a stand-alone learning experience, and also is the first 30 hours of our complete Shiatsu Certification Program.
Two textbooks are required for the class; Touching Ki by Matt Sweigart, and Shiatsu: The Complete Guide by Chris Jarmey. Their combined cost is $54.95, and they can be purchased from our bookstore in advance or on the first day of class.
