Watsu® for Babies with Gianni De Stefani & Ellie/Sheida
February 22, 2027

Watsu for Babies is a beautiful and spontaneous way to experience the early years of childhood. It is open to anyone, who wants to share the joy of being in water with babies.

In this course, you will discover that emotions arising from spontaneous movements in water can open extraordinary borders. These moments allow us to be in the present moment, simply listening to the baby’s breathing while being supported by the healing power of water.
Thanks to the collaboration with Gianni De Stefani, a senior WABA instructor, Dr. Riccardo Palumbo has developed a new massage, which is introduced in this course to bring Watsu into the world of babies.
Through Tantsu and Ai-Chi exercises, you will begin to listen to yourself and to the baby you hold. You will also learn possible transitions of the Watsu sequence in order to expand it creatively for babies.
