Phase-1 [Basics] Equine Shiatsu

Phase-1 [Basics] Equine Shiatsu Course

The equine Shiatsu courses are designed to provide a thorough training in Shiatsu theory and applied practical skills.

Each study-level of the training programme builds on the knowledge gained in the previous level.

The Basics course acts as a standalone introduction to equine Shiatsu.

Topics include:

• Practical Techniques.
• Equine Language, Evolution and Behaviour.
• Basic Shiatsu Theory.
• Relaxation Techniques for horse-owners and riders.
• Introduction to A&P [anatomy & physiology], the Skeletal System.
• Exercises for Health & Vitality.
• Basic Principles of the Zen Shiatsu style.

At the end of Phase-1 of equine Shiatsu training there is a practical assessment. Successful completion results in a Certificate of Practical Competence in Equine Shiatsu.
