Qigong fall 2026
Welcome to join us for exiting workshops and weekly classes this fall
What if you could feel your energy,
and actually know how to move it?
Qigong is the practice of energy awareness!
It teaches you how to balance your internal world using your breath, your body and ancient
wisdom.
Most of us are taught to ignore our subtle energy. We numb out, burn out, shut down.
Qigong brings you back to your center with yin yang theory, 5 element wisdom and breath
based movement.
Qigong
Easy and gentle
Slow relaxed movements
Focused intention
Breath connects body and mind
Like a moving meditation that Calms the mind & develop both Inner and Outer Strength!

Zen Shiatsu Massage
I am so happy to be able to offer my favorite bodywork modality at
the Institute of Light, starting mid September 15 th
Originating from Japan, Zen Shiatsu Massage is deeply relaxing on every level, helping pain
and tension to melt away.
Zen Shiatsu brings ease and comfort to the joints, helping you find freedom of movement
Zen Shiatsu deeply calms the whole nervous system, promoting a feeling of safety and deep
support.
Zen Shiatsu is typically performed on a futon mattress on the floor but can also be performed
on a massage table*, the receiver fully clothed**.
The practitioner applies pressure to the body in a slow relaxing continuous movement added
with stretches and joint rotations.
Zen Shiatsu can be used for relaxation, musculoskeletal therapeutic aims, or to benefit internal
conditions or emotional re-balancing in the mind.
Your session will be tailored to your exact needs and your individual healing process
*if you for some reason would like to receive Shiatsu on a massage table, let me know at the
time of scheduling
**please wear soft clothes like sweatpants or yoga pants, t-shirt long or short sleeved
60 min: $110

Walking the Sacred Wheel; Shamanic Training w/ Jill
Group 2
**Must commit to ALL four directions. Payment for each direction must be submitted 1 week prior to class. There are only 6 spots for each group in order to keep the class intimate.
Walking the Sacred Wheel is a transformational shamanic training that guides you through the Four Sacred Directions—South, West, North, and East. Each direction offers a unique initiation into healing, shadow work, ancestral wisdom, and visionary consciousness. We will start in the Direction of the South.
Rooted in earth-based spirituality and ancient shamanic teachings, this training invites you into direct relationship with the elements, archetypes, and energies of the Medicine Wheel. As you walk the circle, you will release what no longer serves, reclaim your power, and align with your soul’s purpose—learning not just the teachings of shamanism, but how to live them.
This is a path of remembrance, embodiment, and deep spiritual connection.
South/Serpent: Healing the Past & Reclaiming the Body
West/Jaguar: Entering the Darkness & Claiming Power
North/Hummingbird: Ancestral Wisdom & Sacred Knowledge
East/Eagle: Vision, Spirit, and New Beginnings
