How did I get here?
As a practitioner my journey starts with a question, as most do. It was a simple question but one that required a lot of time and effort. What is that question you ask? What is Ki? Being a curious person I am always looking for ways to enhance and bring deeper meaning to the things I do. I knew that if I could grasp the idea of Ki it would add value to my life and it has immensely! I began to read the works of prominent martial arts teachers and eastern philosphers to understand more. This is where I ran across the idea that touch with a focus on Ki I could restore health to another. From that point forward my interest was peaked. I enrolled in a program for Shiatsu and ever since then have been sharing this art with others to help bring a better sense of self and health into their lives. I am very passionate about my work and it always gets enhanced when I see how it helps others.
Who am I?
I tend to be a very focused person. I enjoy the process of questioning and searching for answers in the passions of my life. My passions include Martial arts, Shiatsu, and my beautiful wife and dog. I also enjoy relaxing with an occasional video game here and there too! I am always curious about the human condition and healing. Which is why Shiatsu is so fitting for me!
In my martial arts training I have learned a lot about life and bring these discoveries into all areas of my life, including my Shiatsu. It might sound odd but through the practice of martial arts with a focus on health, I have developed a great compassion and reverence for life. It is through this practice that my heart has grown bigger. I wouldn’t say I am competitive, but if the Grinch’s heart grew 3 times bigger mine grew 4, haha.
