2026 Programme
The next UK event is a three day workshop in Frome “Exploring the Inner Community” on the 10h-12th April. The Inner Community is a term coined by Bill to describe the fact that different parts of the body-mind have their own intelligence and can act independently to maintain inner harmony. These turn out to be the Qi-functions of Chinese Medicine. This work can transform the way you do Shiatsu or other forms of bodywork. It shows you how to talk to the Qi-functions directly through guided movements and somatic exploration.
Our yearly residential retreat is again in the Earthspirit Centre from 1st-6th November. This year we are focusing on the theme “Bringing the Shadows into the Light” In the process of becoming a person, some potential aspects of the self are usually suppressed and inhibited. If the suppressed parts are essential aspects of your core spirit then this ‘socialisation’ can feel like a prison and results in physical symptoms, low energy levels and mental health issues. We will show how to use the principles of Movement Shiatsu to help people deal with life issues such as trauma, life crises and old age by contacting and integrating these shadow areas through the body.
In November we start a series of online webinar masterclasses whose theme is how to teach clients practices that they can do at home that specifically focus on developing the energetic work of the Shiatsu sessions. For more info go to Masterclasses 2027
This year, if you take the November residential and have attended our Inner Qigong Classes or the Masterclass series then you may qualify for the Postgraduate Certificate in Movement Shiatsu.
