John Thorne: holistic practitioner, workshop facilitator, certified Esalen Bodyworker, certified trainer of Tai chi Movements for Wellbeing.

I retired from full time employment as a Telecommunications Consultant in 2006, and then undertook an extensive, self-defined training programme pursuing alternative and complimentary practices including:
- ITEC Diploma in Holistic Massage with A&P
- 250 hour certificate in Esalen Massage
- Certified trainer & Advanced Practitioner of Tai chi Movements for Wellbeing (TMW)

I have also trained extensively in core shamanic practices and contemporary spirituality. I am certified as a Spiritual Coach and hold a certificate in Medical Qigong. My approach in everything I offer is to seek profound relaxation through the practices of movement, stillness and touch.
