This is an Open Modular programme, introducing the exciting world of working with the human energy field. You may enrol on as many or as few modules as you choose, simply out of interest or to enhance your current skills.

Most of the workshops and modules of the Open Programme can be taken as ‘stand alone’ units for those who would prefer to explore Shiatsu and energy work and deepen their knowledge and perception without the commitment of working towards practitioner status.

If you wish to study Shiatsu in order to gain practitioner status, you can choose modules to build College Credits to enter the Core Programme
