Meditation and Acupressure Massage
Our classes balance fitness training, self-defence techniques and meditation practices. Every Sunday session includes a short meditation (known as zazen or chinkon gyo). This part of the session allows participants to clear their minds, focus on their bodies and breathe deeply. When practiced alongside physical self-defence training, regular meditation can help you to become calmer and more mindful, increasing your ability to deal with pressured situations.
Another key part of our practice is acupressure massage (seiho). Seiho is a form of restorative massage that works to rebalance joints, muscles and tendons. We teach partner-seiho and self-seiho, enabling you to deal with all the aches and pains of a hard day. We often end or seminars with a training session on seiho.
