Governing Vessel & the Spine
Governing Vessel is the first energy current that develops after conception. It serves to govern the development of the other meridians, chakras, organs and the rest of the body's physiology. The spine itself is the material manifestation of this governing vessel energy. By working with the spine through a certain perceptual awareness, you will learn new ways to diagnosis and treat that touch the core potential of a person. This work activates the ability to not only heal, but develop and evolve.

Central Channel
The Central Channel is a circuit of energy that moves along the pathway of the spinal cord. Using non-force techniques, practitioners learn to identify and work with six distinct stages of stress to release and reintegrate trapped life force. Release of meningal stress patterns helps to improve a myriad of physical problems along with increasing emotional, mental and spiritual health. This class is for practitioners who have already taken Governing Vessel or Conception Vessel. Many students repeat Central Channel, since it usually takes extensive practice to use skillfully.

Shin Tai Structural Alignment: Part I & II
Part I: Sept 1, 2, 3 & 4 2022
Part II: Sept 23, 24, 25 & 26 2022
Instructors: Lynn Goodman & Celeste Rixey
This course covers structural assessment and passive correction techniques for the hip structure, sacrum, and vertebrae. Participants learn a full assessment and corrective protocol which can assist clients in experiencing more mobility, alignment and a higher level of function. Working with the structure in this way brings a practitioner to a whole new level of professional capacity. Saul considers these tools a necessary part of every bodyworker’s skill set.
Please note: You can register for just Part II, which covers the sacral adjustments, but you must have taken Part I at some point in the past.
Light Body Activation Part III
We continue with anchoring the light body faculties within the human life. Utilizing the skills obtained in the previous two modules, this course deep dives into healing the physical body, mobilizing the life force and further aligning our life activities with the power of the soul path. By regulating the chakra flow together with the cranial rhythm we are able to increase life force distribution to organs and glands via nerve plexus and fascial tissue in real time.
There will be an option to participate in this course via video livestream if you live at least 2 hours from the shiatsu school.
Advanced Central Channel
The first central channel course focuses on creating a linear model for releasing stress patterns of the governing vessel and the deep fascia. This advanced module steps outside the linear structure and explores the unique patterns that may appear in each client’s treatment sequence. The advanced module further defines the use of the proprioceptive suggestion in order to facilitate faster and deeper release of stress patterns.

Light Body Activation II: A Portal for Self Realization
The light body is a manifesting and evolving energy matrix within the human physiology. Light body activation provides practical skills for adjusting the components of this system while utilizing the new capacities that it initiates. During this course participants receive reliable tools and devices for recognizing, adjusting, and interacting with the chakras, kundalini channels, the bio-plasmic membranes and the cranial rhythm. Saul Goodman has taught these unique processes for over 30 years in the U.S. and throughout Europe.
There is an option to participate in this course via livestream video if you live at least 2 hours from the shiatsu school. Please click below for details.
Light Body Activation I: Proprioceptive Exercise
Learn to activate and begin to manage your developing energy system in this two day workshop. The proprioceptive system is a part of the nervous system that monitors alignment. In this class you will learn a unique form of meditative activity called proprioceptive exercise, which involves specific types of movement that stimulates proprioceptive activity. This eventually evolves into a proprioceptive awareness that improves the quality of daily living. The skills gained in this class are an excellent entry to the light body activation process. It brings a person into clear connection with the basic components of their energy system and initiates a reliable interface between the mind directives and energy flow.
