An Introduction To
Shiatsu – taster sessions

Prerequisites: None

This day workshop is a taster session for people interested in leaning a simple shiatsu technique that they can practice on family and friends.

The day will start with working on our bodies, doing stretching and breathing exercises to connect and experience our own energy We will then go on and learn a basic back technique that participants will be able to give to family and friends. The day will cover the correct posture and treatment positions, advice about when not to treat and guidelines on ensuring you and the receiver are kept safe. Students will have time to practice the routine as they will work on each other so that they can experience receiving as well as giving. During the day you will also learn some first aid points that you can use on people for headaches and sickness.

Shiatsu is done on a futon on the floor; a large part of the day will be spent on the floor so participants need to be comfortable sitting and kneeling on the floor. Please wear loose clothing; it is better for all parts of your body to be covered, please wear long sleeves and trousers such as track suit bottoms also socks.
