Hi!!

Thank you so much for these videos! they are awesome! I was just wondering if anybody has a transcript of what Masunaga sensei says on the videos?

Or is anybody interested in helping me to do the transcript? I'm from Spain and my English is not that good, and I'd love to understand also what it's said on the videos (although I agree that watching and understand what you watch is more important than the words!)

Thanks again!!!

@ardanash Even though Masunaga Sensei is speaking in broken English it is clear what he is saying during each of the video clips that I posted. I might type up what he says in English. It could then be translated to different languages. This is a great idea. I think I will do this and create a webpage for the translations to be posted to.

Thank you so much for posting this fabulous video. So great to share this wonderful knowledge from such a Master.

You are welcome! It is nice to see pure technique from Masunaga Sensei before people get their hands on his work and invent their own distortions. Some therapists can really enter into Mushin (No Mind) and work correctly! Others have no idea how to practice and they are stuck making up new "cool looking" technique of their own. Poor therapists work from their own power not understanding that true technique comes from Mukan (Empty Space) were their exists a well of endless formlessness.

I am learning Masunaga Shiatsu in Tokyo under his pupil. I want to get closer to his level.

I am from South Africa , I have watched this clip over and over and over ! I continue to practice it and watch and practice , I am beginning to feel Masunaga Sensei's energy with me . They are just no words to describe it , He moves like a cat , you try leaning your full body weight onto someone;s inner thigh liver meridian and you will understand how light on his feet masunaga is when he performs side posture routine, please any fellow shiatsu friends contact me harry@bodybasics.co.za
