Next workshops:
22nd March 2025 – 'Playing with how we pay attention'
A day for shiatsu practitioners and advanced students to support your practice, with Hannah Mackay. Plenty of giving and receiving shiatsu!
We will play with themes such as:
how do we pay attention when we are giving shiatsu - focused and clear, broad and bright, in the body or around the body?
how can we support our clients with attention issues, for example people with ADHD, depression, health anxiety?
looking for balance between paying attention to where the energy is already flowing and paying attention to areas of depletion, stagnation, injury or pain
Shiatsu practitioners and students from all schools of shiatsu are welcome.
Get in touch for more information!

1st November 2025 - 'Ancestors and ancestral Qi'
A day for shiatsu practitioners and advanced students to support your practice, with Hannah Mackay.
There will be plenty of giving and receiving shiatsu!
We will be working with our ancestors and our ancestral Qi, through some of these approaches:
How can we feel resourced by connection with our benevolent ancestors?
Working with ancestral Qi, through the Kidney and Bladder meridians and the Extraordinary Meridians.
Paying attention to ancestral trauma.
Freedom and gratitude towards our ancestors, and those who came before us in our Shiatsu ancestry.
Shiatsu practitioners, graduates and advanced students from any school welcome.
