Hañsa Professional Therapy Training

 

About

Hañsa Therapy is a complementary, holistic approach to health that optimises functional living. Hañsa uses yogic and Taoist concepts to deconstruct movement, breathing rhythms and behaviour to provide an approach that supports the practitioner, student and client to greater wellness.

Hañsa Therapy

 

incorporates in its therapeutic model Hañsa Functional Touch practices. A unique bodywork system that elicits a higher degree of body organisation which can develop new and improved movement strategies to support overall function

It’s main philosophy is based on that any therapeutic value within the practice is built overtime. It is a system that differentiates and analyses personal styles and characteristics, with the view that as our understanding of ourselves grow so do our choices become different. The hope is the practice will enable any practitioner of Hañsa to adapt, mature and evolve. This is a prerequisite to improving functionality and living life well.

  • This training is equivalent to standard Yoga Alliance 200-hour Yoga Training. It provides the opportunity for students to better understand the biomechanics of functional, dynamic movement in the context of: Thoracic rhythm, the pelvic puzzle, and the shoulder complex. These areas of the body provide the platform to explore movement patterning, rehabilitation and Hañsa flow practice with a therapeutic focus.

    Learning and practice from each therapy module are then integrated during an assessment that creates an environment of critical, integrated inquiry within the three physiological and energetic systems explored in the 200-hour Hañsa Therapy Training. The assessment is an appraisal of each student’s understanding of therapy principles and ability to apply them.
