"Explore the intricate connection between emotions, creativity, and motivation within your body at the 'Movement Shiatsu Workshop - Stage 2.' This engaging event offers participants an in-depth exploration of their innate emotional intelligence and physical awareness. Led by Ruth Patrizzi, attendees will engage in practical exercises and insightful discussions designed to enhance their understanding of body-mind integration. Discover personal growth and creative inspiration through this unique and transformative workshop experience."
Reconnect with the wisdom of your body.
Shiatsu is more than massage — it’s a mindful dialogue through touch. Movement Shiatsu takes this further, exploring how body, movement, and breath come together to create alignment, vitality, and resilience.
Whether you’re a bodyworker, therapist, or simply curious about deepening your relationship with your body, these workshops invite you into a living culture of touch, movement, and self-discovery.
Each workshop blends experiential anatomy, somatic practice, mindful movement, and Shiatsu touch. You’ll leave with tools you can use right away — for your practice, your loved ones, and your own well-being.
🌱 Release tension and blocked energy
🌱 Support your body’s natural alignment and vitality
🌱 Cultivate deep self-awareness and resilience
🌱 Integrate body, mind, and spirit through mindful touch
You can join a single day or commit to the full journey of three stages (recommended). Each day builds on the last — but is also accessible for newcomers. Ongoing workshops throughout the year.
