Sun: Watsu ~ water shiatsu

Harbin Hot Springs experimented a lot in the 1970s, affirming massage, bodywork and touch, as modalities in human interaction, and as part of the Human Potential Movement. Watsu {water shiatsu} developed uniquely at Harbin, in the context of its pools and beautiful milieu. And from this, a Watsu school emerged at Harbin.

At the end of a Watsu {water shiatsu treatment} recently, I found much relaxation & inspiration. In Watsu a practitioner draws a recipient of Watsu through the water, generally on top of the water; waterdance is done underwater. The recipient of the session, which might last an hour, is cradled, nurtured and moved through warm (96 degrees?) water in a way that is kind of a dance between two people in the most fluid and enjoyable environment imaginable. The recipient can explore releasing.

A communication grows out of this between the two that is very receptive, opening & wonderful. It's a kind of dance in the sun in water, a watery sundance.
