Watsu® 1 with Elisa Muñoz Blanco & Fred
March 27, 2026 - April 1, 2026
A 6-day course on the surface.
Created by Harold Dull in the 1980s, Watsu is given in a warm water pool (ideally 35°C) and known as the mother of all other aquatic bodywork modalities.
In this 50-hour course, you will first learn the basic movements and positions of Watsu. Then, you will connect them with long, gracefully flowing transitions and adapt this work to people of different sizes, shapes, and dispositions.
At the same time, you will practise basic qualities such as grounding, presence, stillness, movement, and attention in moving another person in water. You will experience floating others and being floated, thereby creating space for deep relaxation and nurturing body, mind and spirit.
On land, you will be introduced to both Co-Centering and Tantsu, and explore what it means to be held for yourself and others.
By the end of this course, you will have learnt the complete Watsu 1 sequence for further practice sessions till you feel ready to move on to Watsu 2.
Prerequisites: No previous experience required.
Credits: Watsu 1 is recognized by WABA (Worldwide Aquatic Bodywork Association) as part of the Watsu training program and gives 50 hours of credit for registration with WABA and Watsu India.
