About the Level One Training

The Level One training is a foundational course in understanding the principles, sequences, and philosophies woven through Zenthai Shiatsu.

This four-day embodied experience is the pre-requisite for the nine-month Zenthai Shiatsu Therapist Training; it’s also a transformative experience on its own.

Through guided demonstrations, hands-on practice, and playful, embodied movement, discover techniques, confidence and capacity to offer a considered, fluid and integrative full-body sequence to friends, family, or clients.

Who is it for?

This training is open to all. Past students have been a mix of many backgrounds, experiences and intentions.

The level one training is ideal for:

  • Beginners to bodywork, desiring to learn more about touch and the potency of intentional, therapeutic touch.

  • Yoga teachers, movement facilitators, and therapists of other modalities looking to expand their bodywork toolkit and understanding.

  • Facilitators who wish to uncover more pathways for deeper presence and trust with their clients.

  • Anyone feeling the call to explore touch as medicine; whether for personal growth or professional development.

  • Anyone drawn to be part of an engaged, welcoming, heart-centred community.

What we’ll engage with

  • A 90-minute full-body Zenthai Shiatsu sequence to share with friends, family, or clients.

  • A foundational experience of therapeutic touch

  • An introduction to key elements of Taoist philosophy and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

  • Comprehensive learning materials including a bodywork manual and video tutorials.

  • The experience and support of heartfelt community during — and likely beyond — this four-day course.
