SHIATSU COURSE PLANNING
Anyone setting out on a learning path has to consider their
resources of time and money. Its a good idea to think about your preferences, too.
Ask yourself:
- Are you a person who likes learning by total immersion? or steady absorption?
- Do you want to jump-start your training with an Intensive, or soak it up gently by the month or the week?
- For your further training, have you the time and capacity to fast-track, combining courses, or
will you steadily forge ahead, step by step?
