Description:
One day the student asked if Thai-Massage is just a series of memorized sequences. This moved me in the same way it must have moved my teacher, Kam Thy Chow as well.
Of course the sequences give us a foundation but ultimately one must become intuitive and have an understanding of the elemental body. This is how Ayurveda can come to play.
In this class we will break down the winds and how they affect our emotions. How to choose postures to balance different constitutions and how to understand the importance of feeling each of the elements in our own body so we are practicing with Wisdom. In this class we breathe life into the sequence.
We will learn to identify the Doshas, Vayus and Pulse points. A breakdown of some of the Buddhist foundations such as, Sila, Samhadi and Panya. Which of the foundations of all good Thai practitioners.
Ariela Compares this class to the Wizard of Oz when it goes from Black and White to multi color. Its a wonderful weekend of energy work.
When you apply for the course you will see the option for registering for all seven or just one. If you would like the discount since you’re applying for all seven and you missed the first few classes you can apply this tuition toward the next cycle. Either way you can either jump in one weekend at a time or you can commit to all seven and graduate at the next cycle.
