Together with these basic elements, the student will learn the needed techniques to maintain a suitable physical, mental and energetic balance, so he can help, in simple and effective way to those who consult him to feel more healthful and to obtain a better life quality.
This course does not require previous experience and is addressed to any interested person, because we believe sincerely that Zen Shiatsu can be a very valuable tool for all people interested in helping themselves and those around them.
Both, begginners or those who already are professionals in other health, aesthetic or corporal disciplines can find in its study and practice a different perspective about the traditional concepts of health and disease. They can also learn ways of understanding and self exploring that teach to observe, to perceive and to help without judging, and can also find in it a complement to enrich their present activity or daily life.
The formation that is acquired through the personal study, practice and experiences throughout the course, will be slowly transforming the student, improving his physical state and offering him tools to face and to surpass personal or emotional problems, helping him to connect with the others and, with his own body and sensitivity.
In brief, this course is for those who wish to explore a form corporal work and a philosophy that surely, will have influence in each person beyond the time invested in its study, to extend and influence positively in many facets of their lives.
The course lasts total of two years. Each class will be of weekly frequency and will last of three hours. It will be provided, without additional cost, the needed written study material for each module and complementary bibliography will be indicated to them to deepen in the subjects that may require it.
