This effect can last for days, The energy is known as Ki (also spelt Qi or Chi) or Prana. even between treatments, and is usually accompanied The required understanding is that the nature of the Ki is perfection and intelligence, and its movement is outside thought. This in fact is the cornerstone of the Philosophy of Holistic Medicine. Anyone can learn to do Ki Massage, but the results achieved are according to your level of understanding. In fact this might mean for instance that one person might take five treatments to achieve what a better therapist might achieve in two. The Ki Massage Therapist’s art therefore, like the martial arts, is a study and a discipline involving continual practice and understanding.

“Relaxation massage beats standard medical care for back pain” — top medical journal Leading journal, the Annals of Internal Medicine, considered this so important that they made it their lead article in their July 7, 2011 edition. The study clearly shows that relaxation massage therapy beats standard medical care for Low Back pain. Researchers from three leading U.S. universities, compared “relaxation massage”, “structural massage”, or “usual medical care” in 401 adults for chronic back pain. Eight sessions of either type of massage proved much better than usual medical care, and relaxation massage emerged better on all scores than structural massage. Furthermore, the benefits lasted at least 6 months for each type of massage, with the relaxation massage still providing benefit after one year.

It is something you can’t get from books or on-line courses: it really helps that all the teachers are experienced practitioners themselves. And then, of course, with each course you get a fantastic, practical toolkit. Between myself and my wife Helen we have done all the courses.

Yoga Philosophy - becoming a Yogi oneself The word yoga means to yoke or to join, the joining involved being with life, the life energy that underlies all things. To be a yogi means to join with life so that life force can flow through the body and the mind and out into the world to bring about transformation and positive change. In traditional yoga philosophy the first step along the path of yoga is to learn to control the mind. Breathing and exercises (Hatha yoga) were taught as an aid to learn to focus the mind. Unfortunately, in the process of bringing yoga into the modern world, the whole purpose of yoga is often obscured and it is simply seen as breathing and exercises. The philosophy and meditation section of the course is based on traditional raja yoga philosophy and meditation practice, with the addition of the latest psychological research into mind technology and mindfulness. This section of the course covers: - Learning to experience the flow of energy. Flowing energy through the hands and during yoga exercises - The difference between the programmed self (referred to in yoga as the lower self) and the true self (the higher self). Understanding how the programmed self is formed and how the programmes can be changed - Learning to access and influence the unconscious mind through relaxation, visualisation, mantra and mind Tony Quinn and Yoga training exercises - How to develop “one-pointedness”, totally focus the mind Tony Quinn from an early age was fascinated with the capacity of the yogis to concentrate - Being in the now, entering the flow of life awareness, and bring about healing in another - Meditation, increased awareness person. - The philosophy of right action (dharma yoga). Studying yoga, including the practice of yoga exercises (for the performance of which he won the Maxalding Gold medal), he later spent many months meditating on a mountain top in Africa. His persistence paid off and one day he experienced the state of yoga:- “... as I was sitting there, it was like a veil lifted from my eyes and I suddenly began to see what is. I felt the energy all around me and I could see the life coming from the plants, the bushes, the grass. I felt part of everything, totally joined to life.” Once he had experienced this state of yoga, often described in books, but rarely experienced, he was determined to share this understanding with as many people as possible. Returning to Ireland, he initially called his system “Self Realisation Yoga”. His classes were so successful that they soon spread all over the country, and with it the demand for teachers of his system.

Lidwien van Elk (Yoga and Pilates teacher) “The yoga teacher course is a real in-depth course about the philosophy and practical aspects of yoga and how to incorporate this in modern day life. Apart from gaining a great insight of what yoga is all about, a lot of emphasis is on how to gain confidence to speak in front of a group and how to teach people accordingly. During this course you will learn even more about yourself and how to enrich other peoples’ lives in a holistic way. You will feel yourself getting stronger physically and mentally. Even though I already had some experience in teaching movement, this course gave me extra confidence and ability to construct great classes and workshops. It also gave me an insight on how to incorporate yoga in my own fusion classes, which is one of the popular classes I teach at the moment.” (Facebook: BodySynergy with Lidwien)

Jana Poslusna, Chartered Physiotherapist, Yoga and Pilates teacher “I had been doing yoga for many years but it was only after taking part in this course that I got an understanding of what yoga is really about. The style of teaching was warm with a depth of experience and insight. It was a great combination of practice, theory, anatomy and philosophy. I am really glad I did this course, as I use it in my physiotherapy and pilates practice. I love passing on all this information to other people, sharing some of this great yoga feeling, experience and knowledge.” Jana’s site: www.naasyoga.com

Amanda Mitchell Yoga Teacher Dublin 2 “The Yoga Teacher Training Course is just incredible. It has given me a true insight into how to live life outside of my head. We all know the lyrics ‘Life is what happens when we are busy making other plans’, I knew what they meant, but it’s only through the course that I really learned to quieten my mind. It continues to be a daily practice. At this time of global change there is huge stress on individuals. Every class I teach, I learn something new, I benefit just as much as the student. If you are not sure about this course, do it anyway; it’s a win win for you!”
