    THAI YOGA MASSAGE RETREAT, RYHTHM & STILLNESS: MEDITATION IN MOVEMENT

    Ritiro di Thai Massage: meditation in movement con Flora Bisogno

    Five days of retreat and work on/with the body in which we practice multiple levels of touch exploring traditional Thai Massage, Dynamic and Osteothai, our own practice of mindful movement, meditation, the spirit of welcome and community (sangha). You will be guided with care and attention by Flora (Italy) and Chiharu (Japan), both Master Osteothai: let yourself be inspired by their related skills and cultural specificities.

    Life is rhythm Rhythm
    Rhythm is made of movement and pauses, breakthrough and silence. In our lives we are always in a hurry and while running we tend to forget to anchor ourselves in our still center.

    Healing like Creativity arise from our inner silence.
    During the retreat you will be guided into the depths of the art of touch. Immersed in nature, we will be able to recall our silent, creative and healing inner space.
    In this retreat we invite all those who have minimum experience of Thai Massage, Shiatsu or Yoga practice, anyone who wants to implement the practice with different and useful perspectives.
    We also gladly welcome dancers or those who work with body expression, all those who wish to find new inspiration for their vocation.
    While practicing the principles and technique that we will share, one step at a time, we will “touch” our deepest being and we will learn to extend this same experience to others and to everything around us.

    WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:
    • How to give a more fluid, effective and creative treatment on the floor
    • Deepen the foundations and technique of Traditional and Dynamic Thai Massage and Osteothai (viscera and cs)
    • To improve your ability to feel with a more conscious touch, with more presence, listening and metta
    • Balancing rhythm and stillness, bringing creativity, playfulness, joy as well as silence and greater insight into the practice
    • To connect different rhythms and types of stillness for yourself and for others
    NOURISHMENT FOR YOU:
    • Restore body and mind, taking care of your well-being
    • Practicing yoga, breathing, mindful movement, noble silence
    • Listening and investigating with sitting and walking meditation
    • Enjoying community and sharing in non-judgmental environment
    • Enjoying simple and healthy food
    • Surrounded by an abundant and generous nature
    GUIDED BY FLO THAI MASSAGE AND
    CHIHARU SHANTI, HOLISTIC ARTS JAPAN

    Chiharu was first introduced to Yoga in 2001. Since then her interest and advanced studies have extended from ancient Thai healing massage to Vipassana meditation, Buddhism, Ayurveda and Osteothai. Strongly inspired by David Lutt, Chiharu integrates Western bodywork methodology with Eastern spirituality and medicinal systems. In 2022 she was certified as a Master Osteothai (MOT). Today she is one of the most active leaders in the Thai massage community in Japan, and specializes in a psychosomatic approach. In this retreat, she will introduce an approach according to the ancient Japanese view that considers the body as an integrated whole, as well as other views on the essence of body and mind.
