STUDY PATHWAY

Self Help

We highly recommend that all Jin Shin Jyutsu students attend at least one Self Help Class.  During this class you study the fundamental principles of Physio-Philosopy and how to apply the Art to yourself, family and friends.  Please refer to the the Practitioner page to identify self help instructors.

Student Practitioner

For those who wish to continue the completion of one 5 Day Jin Shin Jyutsu Seminar allows you to become a student practitioner of the art, however you can practice the art from a professional point of view after the completion of one 5 Day Seminar.  After attendance of one 5 Day Seminar a certificate is issued for 35 hours class time. 

Authorised international instructors for the 5 Day Jin Shin Jyutsu Seminars are:

After you have completed three 5 Day Jin Shin Jyutsu Seminars you are considered a qualified practitioner.  Upon completion of the three 5 Day Seminars a second certificate is issued certifying that 105 hours of class time have been attended.

At any time you can join The New Zealand Association of Jin Shin Jyutsu.
