"Every day, we make dozens of choices about taking action in the world. Many times we are faced with having to decide between actions that contribute in a positive way to the world, and actions that have neutral or even negative effects.
Our actions don’t arise from a vacuum. They are generated from an internal matrix of thoughts, emotions, beliefs, values, and habits. This matrix is a reflection of our personal history and experience, and is tempered by our introspection. To understand the basis of how we act in world, we have to understand more deeply how our choices get ‘selected’ from out of all the possibilities provided by this internal matrix.
Over the past year and a half, I have been learning from Ki Shin Do a value framework for making choices. I can see myself starting to act in more positive ways to other people and in the world at large.
In my initial practice of Ki Shin Do, I (like others) have had some esoteric experiences. However, for me the real meaning of the teachings is to be found in how, at a deep level, it has caused changes in the value framework that guides how I act in the world (including how I interact with other people).
I have been fortunate to have teachers who, with great patience and generosity, have been helping me to understand the principles of Ki Shin Do and put them into practice."

COMMENTS FROM OTHER PARTICIPANTS

"My experience with the Ki & Heart School has been a great eye opener. I think that it is all about life, and common sense that most of us forget. I hope that more people find what i found from the course."
"The Ki & Heart experience has been a very open and great way to allow oneself to be sensitive to the feelings of others and oneself."
"I learned to open myself to others by expressing fine emotions, either verbally or in silence (through my heart). I also learned a great set of movements, Renki & Aiki, (for developing my physical and Ki strength). Mostly i enjoyed applying 'intention' to the Ki exercises and to the shiatsu part of the class, and transfering this Ki to the very bottom of the tsubo."
