Masterclass Mastery Kyokutē 1

You already have the essentials. This Masterclass will teach you how to use them to their full potential.

Presentation

All trades offer continuing education courses to help professionals improve their skills. It’s time for us to take action too. If you’ve been practicing for 7 years or 18 months, this is for you. Your movements are fluid, your customers appreciate your touch, but you feel there’s room for improvement – more impact, more naturalness, more possibilities. And then, over time, you’ve made personal adaptations. That’s not a problem in itself, but how do you know it hasn’t reduced your effectiveness?

That’s exactly what this Masterclass is all about: refining your sensations, overcoming your automatisms and giving a new dimension to your touch. We’re not going to say we’ll revise. We’re going to push you to improve, speed up your execution and integrate true letting go. So more ease, more musicality and more relaxation before tackling the more emotional part.

Objectives

This Masterclass is designed to help you progress on 2 levels: practical and theoretical. Through 3 complete, real-life treatments, we’ll perfect your speed and fluidity.

  1. Precise massage of the 3 Kyokutē treatments, integrating every technical detail and adapting the gesture.
  2. Understand and analyze each gesture, its effect on tissues and decision-making in real time.
  3. Develop fluidity and speed of execution, thanks to Kata, repetitive exercises inspired by traditional Japanese arts to improve hand independence, coordination and precision.
  4. Create a personalized massage plan, selecting and linking together around twenty gestures adapted to each customer.
  5. Develop a protocol for 12 symptomatic cases, building specific care plans.
  6. Correct limiting automatisms and optimize your posture for a more efficient and less tiring touch.
  7. Apply advanced concepts such as tensegrity, brain and tissue plasticity, the impact of touch on fascia and facial tension lines.
  8. Access exclusive resources: detailed explanation of practitioner and specialist books (updated after September 2023) and introduction to the Brain Reset protocol for acting on neuroplasticity.
