year since I moved from the western district.
Classes and healing locations
This
year we have started to do massage and will do classes at The Forge in Castlemaine.

Planned Classes
Aikido

focuses on the spiritual development of the person as well as martial skills.

style is HATHA Yoga and I will include Bakti Bajaan devotional singing into the

Indian drumming and percussion-
has been in my
life since the 1980s and I have worked with bands and toured to national folk
festivals and performed in Adelaide with many Indian singers and artists. If
there are any serious persons wanting to learn Tabla or to generally play percussion with the djembe or darrabaka I
can teach. Where? Carisbrook or the Forge. $35 lesson.
Healing and Feedback
Thanks to all those who have
given me feedback on the healing that they felt after massages. It is a great
blessing to us all and only happens when we open to the unknown and the
new. Healing is a magical thing and the
more and longer I am involved with it the less I really know about how it
works. Of course we can have theories and systems but often things work outside
those parameters. Let’s see what happens this year as we open to whatever the
world offers, remembering that not only the good is good for us, for we learn
in many ways and pain can be a lightning to the soul. ......Gerard
