Ayurvedic Kansa Vatki Foot Massage (CMA approved)
With Mary Dalgleish Friday 17th February 2012 (10am - 6pm) Cost: €175 (includes a Kansa Vatki 3-metal bowl which is used in the treatment + course manual)

 
The Kansa Vatki (KV) Ayurvedic Foot Massage™ with marma therapy (Indian acupressure) is a beautiful and relaxing health-care modality, which balances the body, mind and spirit through working on the feet and legs. This unique treatment, steeped in centuries of ceremony, involves the use of ghee (clarified butter) and oils. The massage is deeply revitalizing for tired feet and legs and, as the feet contain key energy and nerve endings relating to internal organs, a Kansa Vatki treatment also helps to rebalance the doshas (Vata, Pitta and Kapha energies). You will discover your Ayurvedic dosha and will give and receive two full treatments on the day.  On completion you will receive a CMA approved Certificate.    For an application form & further details contact:

  From the beginning of time, sacred movement, song and story have brought people together - at times of seasonal ceremony and celebration, as part of everyday life and life passages, in daily renewal and meditation.

• We dance to experience and express the beauty of our hearts through song, music, chant and movement.
• We move to harmonize our bodies, voices and thoughts as a chorus of Universal Peace.
• We open ourselves to feelings that flow as a result of being in a circle that expresses the rhythm of Sacred Unity.
• We join the circle to be mindful of our home in the melody of Breath, Heart Beat and Earth.

These simple, joyous, meditative, multi-cultural circle dances set to the sacred phrases, chants, music and movements of the world's spiritual traditions promote peace and integration within individuals and understanding and connection within groups worldwide.

No prior experience necessary – just an openness

to dance, sing, and play.
