9-day Thai Massage Beginners Retreat with Krishnataki in SWISS ALPS
29th June – 7th July 2024
An amazing 9-day course in traditional Thai-Yoga-Massage for beginners
Open for all interested, also beginners: In this course for beginners we learn sequences and techniques for a 2-hour treatment of Thai-Yoga-Massage.
The course travels day by day from the feet to the head, gradually forming a complete Thai-Yoga-Massage based on the stretches and acupressure as taught by Thai massage master Asokananda. A large part of the course, supported by sessions of meditation, yoga and tai-chi, emphasizes the importance of the spiritual connection and intuition we develop through massage.
The course is held in English and is for both beginners and practitioners of other kinds of bodywork. There are no prerequisites for the course – everybody can do it and everybody is welcome. We learn techniques to do a full-body two-hour massage.
Thai-Yoga-Massage techniques can be effectively integrated into other therapy disciplines such as shiatsu, remedial massage or physiotherapy meaning the course offers the opportunity for therapists of other massage styles to improve and broaden their skills.
Takis (also called Krishnataki in Asia), originally from Greece, has been teaching Thai Yoga massage, yoga and qi gong since 1998 having lived and studied in Thailand and India. His first gateway to the East was through the inspirational teachings of Tai Chi master Tew Bunnag which led him down the path in search of his true spiritual essence.
He is now a senior massage teacher of the Sunshine Network, and has trained with Thai massage masters Pichet Boonthume, Chayuth Priyasith and Asokananda and has a Sivananda Yoga background. He is passionate about organic farming, Chinese medicine, cooking and nutrition and incorporates aspects of yoga, meditation and Qi Gong into all his courses.
His base is at Sunshine House, where he leads a variety of retreats aimed at igniting the spiritual, healing flame that lies dormant in each and every one of us, however he still spends time travelling abroad to teach and also study, where possible. He is renown for his unique, fun-loving and passionate way of teaching as well as his generous spirit, hot hands and delicious home-made recipes. When he is not teaching, he is with his three beautiful children or soaking in hot spring waters.
