Zenthai Therapist Program

Zenthai Shiatsu Therapist Training with Merryn & Harri

Our program offers a deeply immersive experience into bodywork, movement therapy, 5 element theory, anatomy and philosophy. It is delivered over 8 modules, each as a 4 day intensive, approximately a month apart. The program commences in March and completes in December.

This training is more than a course in offering bodywork and traditional therapies; it is a journey of self-realisation. The course encapsulates the essence of holistic healing, where we learn by embodying the principles and explore the practice through our daily lives. This offers a depth and breadth to how you sculpt and develop the practice that you offer to others.

We merge the worlds of modern medicine, ancient and ancestral wisdom to dive deep into the landscapes of the body, mind and emotions. The program is comprehensive in; self inquiry, client consultation, diagnosis, aligned treatment, traditional therapies and self healing practices.

Course incudes:

• 4 practical modules - Advanced 1 & 2 / Remedial 1 & 2

• 2 theory modules - Elements 1 & 2

• 1 therapies module - Traditional Therapies

• 1 clinical module - Student Clinic

• Tuition, manuals, online resources and support

• An epic family, connected community and friends for life

It is an absolute joy and honour to guide you on this journey. From teaching the program with Gwyn Williams for 7 years, I am continually in awe of the human spirit and our potential in a unified field. 2023 marks the 3rd year offering the program to our ever expansive and heart fuelled community in Northern Rivers, Byron Shire.

Our centre, Serene Earth Sanctuary is a vibrant and sacred place for us to land, be immersed in nature and absorb the teachings of Zenthai. The natural surrounds and fire circle adds such a richness to our time here on this land. The centre is located in Myocum, halfway between Mullumbimby and Byron Bay and is a short drive from the Gold Coast and Ballina airport. We have accommodation options available to allow you to fully immerse in the practice during intensives.
