The Five Lights Center of Shiatsu, the nation’s longest-running, fully accredited Shiatsu center, will host Shiatsu expert Maureen Miller for a special workshop, Embracing the Whole, from 7 to 9 p.m. on March 28 at its Upper West Side location.

This hands-on class explores how the five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal and water) express themselves through movement, posture, breath and emotional tone in Shiatsu sessions. Participants will learn to observe these elemental qualities in the body and respond with greater sensitivity, presence and adaptability.

Through discussion, observation and practice, students will deepen their understanding of how physical patterns, energetic rhythms and relational dynamics reflect the body as an interconnected whole. The workshop emphasizes a holistic, element-centered approach, encouraging practitioners to move beyond technique and cultivate balance, responsiveness and embodied awareness in their Shiatsu practice.
