Free seminar and workshop

Canadian College of Shiatsu Therapy in Vancouver B.C. Canada

Free Seminar and Workshop Apr 7, 2011

We had a great opportunity to hold a workshop at the Canadian College of Shiatsu Therapy in North Vancouver on April 7th, 2011. We began holding free Shiatsu seminars and workshops last year to tell participants “What is Shiatsu”. What students learned in the school helped make Shiatsu feel familiar to them.

In the beginning Yoko Trapp, senior administrator of the Canadian College of Shiatsu Therapy (CCST), talked about Shiatsu, curriculum of CCST and the spread of Shiatsu in British Columbia. When she described that the demand for Shiatsu is rising in British Columbia it seemed to stimulate the participants. The lecture that Yoko gave showed that she is very proud of herself as a Shiatsupractor which promoted the participants to continually ask questions.

Moreover, we attempted for the first time to invite Takashi Sakai, who graduated from CCST, as a guest speaker. Mr. Sakai takes great pride in his job as a Shiatsupractor. He telling stories to the participants in a different perspective than the CCST (You can watch his lecture video under the article)

Participants asked many question even during break time and CCST information clearly answered each question. After the ten minute break, a demonstration of Shiatsu for the sitting position was instructed. During the demonstration of Shiatsu for the sitting position Akiko Miyamoto, an administrator, explained about pressure points by using a projector and also using a human participant. After that, participants paired with each other and they tried the shiatsu for the sitting position treatment. They found it very difficult the first time, but they were getting used to it after some practice and started to enjoy it.

As I said, we periodically have workshops and we have already scheduled the next workshop in September. If you are interested in Shiatsu please participate in a workshop. Also if you would like to take classes the starting day for next semester is May 7th. Classes include a practice section of a small number of students at a time. For this reason we suggest you register as soon as possible. If you have any question, please contact: Yoko Trapp Phone: 604-904-4187 E-mail:admin@oyayubi.com
