Further training courses

Masterclasses

Through targeted masterclasses, we ensure that you continue to develop beyond your shiatsu study. We do this by offering a diverse program of continuing education for both experienced shiatsu therapists and newly graduated shiatsu therapists. For everyone at their own level and in every area of interest. The program is updated every quarter in consultation with the Iokai Alumni Working Group.

The Iokai thought

In the Iokai way of thinking, we try to understand the human behind their complaints. That understanding is the understanding of life itself. A shiatsu study therefore does not end with graduation, but continues afterwards. We learn from our clients and learn from ourselves. We do this in practice as a craft that we are constantly refining.

For whom

These master classes are intended for and open to graduated Shiatsu therapists who want to be inspired and broaden their practical knowledge. Regulary, students from the Iokai Shiatsu Professional Training Program can also participate from the third year onwards. On occasion, we also organize refresher courses that are of interest to acupuncturists.

Accreditation

These masterclasses are accredited by the SVN and LVNT and can be submitted as continuing education for these professional associations.
