Central Channel Class

Advanced Central Channel

The Central Channel is a circuit of energy that moves along the pathway of the spinal cord. This Shin Tai course teaches practitioners to evaluate and unlock specific stress patterns held along this pathway (the Governing Vessel) in the meninges. Central channel work is unique, powerful, and creative, and Advanced Central Channel takes this all to the next level.  

The material in this class goes more deeply into abstract/non-linear information & technique. We will be expanding each of the six stress stages, working with anterior contacts, and opening up a whole new level of adjustments with cranial suture work. In order to facilitate these skills, coursework includes advanced proprioceptive journeys that enable greater freedom and perception. 

The first central channel course focuses on creating a linear model for releasing stress patterns of the governing vessel and the deep fascia. This advanced module steps outside the linear structure to explore the unique patterns that may appear in each client’s treatment sequence. It demonstrates how effective treatment moves seamlessly between the linear and non-linear modes.

DATES for in-person class: sometime in 2025

COST:  $750 / $250 repeat fee

Topics Include:

Techniques

  • Sacral zones and the alarm response

  • Cranial suture contacts for spinal correction

  • Off-body contacts

  • Proprioceptive exercise

  • Positioning for alignment and increase of the breathing wave

  • Alternative contacts

  • Anterior contacts

  • Integration of the physical and vibrational bodies

Theory

  • The awakening of the proprioceptive consciousness

  • Development of a non-linear process

  • Transformation of the critical point to holographic access

  • The multiple dimensions of alignment

Evaluation Tools

  • Linear and non-linear awareness

  • Qualities of the vibrational body

  • Sensation of atmosphere shift

The advanced module further defines the use of the proprioceptive suggestion in order to facilitate faster and deeper release of stress patterns. By initiating the client’s connection to their own proprioceptive information, the arrival into present time quickens.  In this module, the practitioner also learns to distinguish between past and present time stress patterns and to adjust their treatment approach accordingly.

Livestream Option

For those of you who can not make it to this class in-person, you can participate via video livestream. This option requires you to have an internet connection plus a phone, tablet or computer.

We recommend that you have a practice partner to take the course with you so that you can experience giving and receiving each technique presented. If that is not possible, we recommend that you take the course live at some point in order to receive the work yourself OR go to a shin tai practitioner who can do it on you. Even though you can learn information and techniques from video instruction (some people even find it easier to learn this way), it is important to feel the effects of the work in your own system. As the bodywork shifts and opens your body, it creates new layers of experiential understanding about the concepts and practical application of the materials.
