Yoga and Shiatsu Seminar – October 2012

Robin French with Michael Powell - October 2012

Friday 19th October 2012 saw the return of Master Tutor Michael Powell, to give a Yoga and shiatsu seminar at Laurence Sandum’s Black Belt Martial Arts Academy in Chelmsford.

The first half of the seminar focused on Yoga. After starting with some movement drills to warm up, Michael worked seminar participants through variations of the ‘Sun Salutation’ to further warm us. After this, Michael moved on to a selection of standing, seated and inverted poses; as ever Michael took the time to demonstrate correct form and progressions to teach to those not capable of the full position.

The second half of the session focused on Shiatsu, particularly focusing on calf and shoulder work. As ever, the pace and nature of the session left me very relaxed.

Thanks to Michael for travelling to the academy to give this awesome seminar.

Thanks, as always to Guro Laurence Sandum for making these seminars happen!
