This class will focus on the Rocking (Yao) and Rolling (Gun) hand techniques of Tui Na and the ability to use Rocking and Rolling to assess a persons energy system and make changes where necessary.
After learning the Rock and Roll massage, we will apply Ting/ Listening to the practice.
Continuing, we will specify our listening to the Meridian system (12 main meridians plus the Ren and Du) and learn various ways to therapeutically adjust the energy flow.
We will discuss two different energy diagnosis methods: The Eight Parameters (simple yin and yang) and The Five Elements (more complex).
We will finish practicing with a Yao Gun Fa treatment on a partner as well as receiving from them. Bring a yoga mat and towel to lay on.
