After being involved in Ocean Therapy for over seven years I have continued my water therapy training with the wellknownTeachers Xavier Boisson and Gianni de Stefani in Goa/India in 2009 and shall continue with Shantam in 2011 to further explore 'water dance'. The passion and joy that aquatic bodywork has given me (giving and receiving) propelled me to go on a more indepth water healing journey all the way to India.
