In Poland, the first Koho Shiatsu course was conducted by Okuyama Shizan in 2008. From this moment, we organize Shiatsu courses in Krakow on three basic levels:
1) Shiatsu family – intended for use mainly among family members and friends
2) Prophylactic shiatsu – which may also be intended for strangers, but only for non-therapeutic purposes for prophylaxis
3) Shiatsu therapeutic – after completing this level, under the supervision of an experienced Shiatsu Shi you can start your own practice.
Each level includes the year of study during which theoretical examinations (anatomy, human physiology, the theory of oriental medicine) and practical ones take place.
According to the tradition of Okuyama Ryu, people who systematically practice Aiki Jujutsu have priority in subscribing to successive levels.
