Greetings Shiatsu Practitioners!

Some big movements have been made in our Shiatsu community that will have an impact our profession.

Over the past year, representatives of the various Shiatsu associations have met monthly to tighten the knit of our community. Now is the time to reveal our ideas to you. We would like to form a Federation consisting of all sincere practitioners of our art. This means unity in the efforts of our common goals to bring Shiatsu closer to the spotlight of primary health care and therapy. We can and will do so much more together!

Please join us on December 7th, 2011 at 7PM for a full information session followed by an open forum discussion. Be a part of the movement! With the support of each Shiatsu Association, we aim to establish this Federation by the new year. As a Shiatsu Practitioner, your contribution is fundamental to its establishment. Voice your concerns, join our work team, or just come to listen and learn what is happening. This is the time to get involved and show your support! Please mark your calendars and RSVP before November 30th, 2011 so we have an accurate head count. Email: info@zenshiatsuclinic.ca

We will respond with location details.

Agenda:

1. The purpose of forming a Shiatsu Federation
2. The current state of our profession
3. Specific obstacles that must be overcome
4. Proposed structure of the Federation, and why our associations are still necessary
5. Open discussions and contributions

We look forward to seeing you at this fruitful event and enjoying a bright future together.

Be well,
Alex Shenker (ZSS), Mirela Stosic (SSO), Robin Grant (JHMSC), Chris Thompson (STAO),  Tim Phillips (STAO), Carol Culhane (SSO), Patricia Tabone (ZSS), Catherine Wright (ZSS).
