Next workshops:

7th November 2026 - Back-stories: Shiatsu for the back

A CPD day for shiatsu practitioners, graduates and advanced students, with Hannah Mackay.

Most receivers appreciate work on their backs!

We will review our back techniques, in all positions.

We will look at how to work with the Governing Vessel and the Girdle Vessel, to benefit the back.

We will use gentle techniques as well as more vigorous stretches, to suit different clients.

We will give and receive plenty of shiatsu!

 

7th November, 10.30 - 5.30; £85

At Bodywise Natural Health Centre, Manchester, Turner St M4

27th February 2027 - Shiatsu, imagination and the breath​

A CPD workshop for shiatsu practitioners, graduates and advanced students, with Hannah Mackay.

Our shiatsu practice can be supported by the richness of the imagination, and by the simplicity of the breath.

We will investigate ways to work with our receivers' imaginations and their breath.

We will find quiet and empty ways of connecting through shiatsu, working with the breath and with the Ki.

We will embrace and extend our imaginations in our shiatsu practice, wondering how we can soothe and invigorate, how we can use our senses, taking care and opening up.

 

27th February, 10.30 - 5.30; £85

At Bodywise Natural Health Centre, Manchester, Turner St M4
