The Iokai Shiatsu Professional Training Programme trains people to become an Iokai Shiatsu therapist at the level of higher professional education (HBO). This training programme involves a lot of personal attention in a learning environment that offers each individual the opportunity to develop himself/herself to become a full-fledged Iokai Shiatsu therapist, by using their own possibilities.

The training programme is part-time. It is intensive and demands full commitment and home study. The curriculum is set up in such a way so as to enable students to combine the training programme with a fulltime job or other obligations.

The focus on practical skills is characteristic of the training programme. In the early stages you will already learn the necessary basic techniques that allow you to start practising quickly. During all four years a basic condition for a successful training is to frequently practise the lessons at home. Practising will enable you to develop the skills that are necessary for the craft of Iokai Shiatsu therapy and you will gain insights that you need as a therapist.
