The workshop unfolds with such a gentle force and depth, moving us out of our heads and into our pelvis — that, stepping back now, I see how we all deepened into our selves and, as a result, the group deepened — in its connection, in its sense of safety and in its capacity to hold more and more depth of experience. It was a seamless and beautiful and kind weaving back and forth, engaging and opening all the way…..

I would also say that, as a therapist, I have definitely, since the workshop, worked more with the breath and with grounding with my clients — and have met them with more receptivity.

Immeasurably valuable.  Thank you – you teach with a respect for where the student is at as well as a curiosity and support for where we might go.  More than that you teach us to give that to ourselves.   - Soraya

Was able to feel my body again after a few years of feeling like a stranger in my own body.

Philip Shepherd’s work fits squarely in with the work of visionaries such as Rolf, Murphy, Siegel, Roth, Kabat-Zinn and others; those unique creatures who can see (and teach) ways to liberate the vast, untapped human potential to live better, love more, sustain happiness, and do good things in the world around them.
