    STAA is excited to be hosting its 5th Practitioner Circle – a space where we gather to connect as a community, to support one another and enhance our professional skills. 

    Each  circle is facilitated by a different speaker, sharing new offerings and diverse teachings and expanding our community connections. Together, we nurture a community of practitioners with mutual support and inspiration. 

    In August we welcome Catherine Caven. 

    Catherine's theme will be "The Quality of Touch" - A chance to explore making connections through touch.

    Awareness of touch applications and modifications, to help support the needs of people with health complexities, will also be presented for discussion and  practical use.

    Catherine is a Ballarat based Shiatsu Practitioner and Visual Artist. She has comprehensive experience in Complementary Health care (since 1998) and Shiatsu (since 2013). She operates a private practice and is also the Shiatsu Practitioner at the Ballarat Regional Integrated Cancer Center (BRICC) Wellness Centre.

    Shiatsu treatment options for stress, anxiety, trauma and complex health patterns are focus areas of her practice.  Additionally her experience includes: women's health, oncology, disabilities, aged care, carer support and persistent / chronic pain. 

    Catherine is also an experienced Community Development Practitioner.  Developing and presenting "The Shiatsu Sessions" - Self Care Practices for individuals and small groups. 

    We look forward to you joining us for the opportunity to connect creatively, grow and take a deep breath in our shared care of others and ourselves.
