Watsu 3 is for students, who have given enough practice sessions to develop a comfortable and intuitive awareness of how to float another person and are ready to further explore aquatic bodywork beyond the fixed form of Watsu 2. After mastering the complete Watsu 2 sequence, Watsu 3 will open the doors for personal creativity and “Free Flow”. At the same time, this creative openness is balanced with a careful study and attention to the different positions, ensuring safety for both giver and receiver.
A major part of this Free Flow learning process is dedicated to the advanced positions and movements that Harold created in the early stages of Watsu’s development.
You can only participate in this advanced course after having shown and passed your Watsu 2 mastery! Prerequisites: Watsu 2 and Watsu 2 mastery.
Credits: Watsu 3 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.

Watsu® Yoga Round with Roberto & Ellie
2025-03-07

Tantsu® 1 with Keli Procopio
2025-03-01 - 2025-03-06
Tantsu was developed by Harold Dull in the same year he conceived Watsu with the intent to bring on land the same principles provided in Watsu.
The basic principles of Zen Shiatsu are further amplified in Tantsu, where a person is totally contained in a whole-body holding position, called Tantsu Cradle. A Tantsu session includes passive stretching, use of Shiatsu pressure points, spontaneous movements of the body, and non-verbal communication. In this course, you will learn different cradles for providing a safe container, while moving and stretching your partner in sync with the breath. As a receiver, you will enjoy the Tantsu benefits through the gentleness and deep connection that each position creates. We will also practice active meditation, breathing exercises, and free dance movements.
Tantsu is for anyone who wants to deepen body-communication through being present and the quality of “touch”.
In short, Watsu’s qualities of presence in the moment, unconditional holding, and loving care are brought onto land, thereby creating sensations of deep contentment and safe relaxation. As such, Tantsu offers an opportunity to open the door to a new level of wellness and healing. Prerequisites: No previous experience required.
Credits: Tantsu 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.
