Beginning your course

In the first term of the practitioner diploma, students are introduced to a core curriculum which is developed and expanded upon as the course progresses. In this way, students always start with a firm foundation on which to build their skills. This is a flexible approach that allows students to gradually acquire the necessary depth and sensitivity to practice effective Shiatsu.
