About Leigh
My interest in Taoism started when researching the background
of a martial art I was studying. I stumbled across a copy of the
Tao Te Ching. I was captivated by its paradoxical poems finding
them both enlightening and confusing at the same time.
The journey that followed in martial arts, healing and meditation
was guided by my early experiences. Over time my interests
evolved from purely physical self-protection into a fascination
with movement, health and most of all Energy.
Another turning point came when I noticed the effect Tai Chi was starting to have on my physical structure, health and sense of wellbeing. A desire to understand these changes and then pass them on to others lead me to bodywork and I started training in Shiatsu. To develop my own practice further I began to follow the Taoist system as taught by Master Mantak Chia.
I am now a certified Universal Healing Tao instructor, a fully qualified practitioner of Shiatsu, Thai Massage and Cosmic Healing. Along the way an interest in the link between mind and body therapies took me to study Contemporary Psychotherapy and NLP, I am a Master Practitioner.
Now I give treatments and teach the practices that I have found to give the most health benefits to others in 1-1 sessions, classes and workshops.
