The Therapeutics Immersion focuses on the healing, relaxing and transformative practices of Thai massage and therapeutic flying. The Thai Asana Sequence teaches basic body mechanics and massage techniques, with an emphasis on cultivating sensitivity and self-love. This practice lays the foundation to effortlessly transmit metta (loving-kindess) during the dance of Thai massage. The techniques learned on the floor are then translated to the flying work, using the element of gravity to amplify the healing flow of prana (life force). Often, we will work in teams of three for safety and support, and everyone will have the opportunity to base and fly, heal and be healed. This training offers invaluable tools for yoga teachers, massage therapists, and energy workers who wish to develop a new dimension of healing touch for students or clients.

Skills covered:

• Thai Asana Sequence

• Giving & Receiving Thai massage in the primary positions, including Supine, Prone, Side Lying & Seated, plus a Tandem sequence (2 givers on 1 receiver)

• Forward, Backward & High Flying Whale Therapeutic Flying Sequences

Pre-Requisites:

• Comfort & experience basing AND flying folded leaf

• Comfort & experience giving a 10 minute Thai massage sequence on the legs with the receiver laying face up (supine).

Recommendations:

• Completion of a General Immersion

• 6+ months regular yoga practice

All participants are required to come with their own copy of the AcroYoga Flight Manual.

Spread the word and connect with fellow students attending this immersion on our Facebook event page.

*This course fulfills the Retreat/Immersion pre-requisite for AcroYoga Teacher Training

About the Instructors:

Big Roo: Adam’s greatest wish as a teacher is to inspire students to embrace the essence of who they are and to express themselves with authenticity. He offers these practices as a gateway to the heart, to reveal our true nature and deeper sense of purpose, and to facilitate personal transformation with the support of community. Adam teaches AcroYoga workshops, retreats, immersions & events internationally, and co-facilitates AcroYoga teacher trainings. More background information can be found through his instructor profile on the AcroYoga website.

Kookaburra: Gwyn…Gwyn is the founder of Zenthai Shiatsu an integrated form of therapy where Zen meets Oriental medicine, Thai massage and Osteopathic techniques. Originally a Zen Shiatsu therapist he has spent close to 15 years studying and teaching around the globe spending many years training under masters of Yoga, Thai massage and Osteopathy.

As noted in his latest book ” The Zen of Touch” his art is a form of underlining the importance of ’presence’ in therapy, His art is fuelled by his passion of us all moving into deeper states of Self realisation which dissolves separation and encourages awareness, whilst embracing the richness of community. Freedom is a state we can all enjoy if we simplify and fine tune our vibrations to the present moment. Yoga, bodywork and courageous self inquiry are all vessels to carry us away from the fogginess of external gratifiication into the joyful nectar of touching one’s true nature and hence serving others with a vibrant potency.

2011 Zenthai newsletter ..Responsiveness

2011 Zenthai newsletter ..Responsiveness

Blessings to all for 2011…

Today is the day after celebrating the day of birth of Paramhansa Yogananda, a Self Realised Master who really lived a remarkable and honourable life, allowing the awakening of so many today. Throughout the celebration we are reminded of the vibratory field such masters lived within and we can all aspire to, by living a conscious life that is simple, awake and aligned with our higher purpose. A way of measuring and cultivating that vibratory field is checking in on the ‘responsiveness’ we internally and externally have to situations as they arise.

In our recent Woodford festival …a unique gathering of community and human spirit ..I am truly inspired by the responses of many towards the adverse challenges that arose with the huge wet ..cars buried into the mud, sea of water in tents, tramping through rivers and rain…the responses of support and joy, undeterred by the conditions…truly awesome.

In Chinese Medicine, ‘ responsiveness’ is related to the heart or fire element. This is sometimes described as our ‘Shen’ or ‘Buddha mind’ . This can be visualised as a calm and potent flame burning in the middle of our chest. When our heart is happy, or Shen is harmonious, we respond with calmness and clarity. When the ‘ Shen is scattered’ we respond with an agitated, turbulent mind and speech. The former emanating a vibratory field that is magnetic and transforming whilst the latter resulting in a vibration that repels and simply lowers frequency. A flame, as we know it. is very sensitive, the edges moving continously according to external circumstance, however the centre remaining the same… vibrantly alive and relatively untouched by the external influence. This same analogy applies to the master who is vibrantly awake…heart centred..untouched by the ‘winds of circumstance’. It is from this centre we respond with clarity and calmness.

Three tools we can use in 2011 to allow a responsive vibrancy and aliveness is to

1. Remain Egoless…without taking things personally and being non defensive we have so much more energy..and ‘respond’ appropriately.

2. Be Spacious..when there is space around our Words and Thoughts they become powerful tools for transformative change..

3. Be Fearless….a lot of inappropriate responses are based on fear. When we trust and align ourself with Spirit the Fearless warrior stands up with joy and power.

The inspiring yogis reaching self realisation and liberation are so fearless they become untouchable by all the trials and tribulations of a human life. They respond to all situations with depth and precision. A love filled vibration simply felt by being in their presence. May we all be awake enough within the moments of 2011 to be conscious of our responses and lift up our vibratory fields towards their true radiance.

With oneness and peace may you walk..
