CPD Courses
The Glasgow School of Shiatsu has hosted many Continuing Professional Development courses over the years, to support our graduates and practitioners of Shiatsu and other modalities. Professional associations usually require CPD from their professional members, and the Shiatsu Society specifies 15 hours per year of CPD, which can be formal or informal. Our CPD weekends provide 12 hours.
Upcoming Courses
In 2025 we will again be offering the
“Samurai Shiatsu for Children: fit for school” programme. This will be led by Svenja Schaper, who is a Registered Shiatsu practitioner and Teacher and a qualified primary school teacher. Past participants of this workshop have successfully introduced Shiatsu into primary schools using the programme materials, and this is an excellent way of bringing mindful touch skills to young people in an engaging and gentle way.
We also hope to welcome Leisa Belmore in spring 2026. Leisa is an experienced researcher and has several specialised workshops on offer. Further details later.
