A-Way Therapy Essentials
Next Course To be confirmed
(Open to Certified or Qualified Therapists)
Last A-Way weekend has been transformational once again. There is this indescribable feeling that arises whilst working with A-way or receiving an A-way session and that just feels so good!
Working as a Physiotherapist was already very satisfying to me. Now, A-way is the miracle juice that pieces everything together, for an enhanced experience for the client and myself.
I enjoy the simple and profound approach that Tim provides whilst learning A-way. Besides the freedom and principles which Tim offers there is also an easy to follow structure available to work with and move from with confidence.
I would like to recommend A-way to all people who are already working as a Healthcare Professional, in Alternative/Complementary Healthcare or if you are interested to help yourself and others with having a healthier and happier life.

As a therapist it is important to take care of ourselves and avoid depletion, burnout and picking up anything negative through working with our clients, or pass anything unuseful on.
Through many years of training in Chi Kung, Tai Chi Chuan and Therapy I learnt how to manage and regulate my energy for the benefit of myself and others, and this became the bedrock of what I do.
In this 'A-Way Therapy Essentials' course I will be passing on techniques and skills for working on self and others, including evaluation techniques to locate blockages and ways to release them. We will look at how habitual breath, posture, alignment and movement patterns create problems, and how to work to resolve them.
You will also learn specific techniques you can use on yourself and others to release held tensions and improve the quantity and quality of your energy.
This course gives you the important steps to working with A-Way Therapy on self and others. At the end of this course you will go away with practical things you can use to develop your skills and work on others. One of the things I love about A-Way Therapy is that it does not look to restrict you to one style or method of practice. Instead, you can incorporate it into what you already do to give you more tools to work with when you need them.

Chi Kung/What you’ll learn
One of the primary learnings of A-Way is how we can be present in the world, without carrying the baggage of unnecessary physical and emotional tensions.
An integral part of learning A-Way Therapy is the learning of Zen Yoga and Chi Kung/Qigong (the skill of using energy), Zen Yoga Therapy and Chi Kung/Qigong Therapy.
