Tao Yin Class Thursdays @ The Slavage Yard

So what is Tao Yin?

Taoist Yin is a style of qi gong that emerged in China around the same time as Yoga began in India.
They share many similar movements.
Tao Yin is more flowing and less static that yoga.

Tao Yin translates as 'To Guide and Direct'.The focus of this style of qi gong is to open and soften the channels/meridiens, guiding and directing the flow of energy throughout our bodies.
Much of Tao Yin is taught as part of martial arts conditioning.
Stretching and strengthening our whole body which creates resilience in the mind, emotions and physical body.

Half of this class is commonly mat work, focusing on strengthening and enlivening our core and lower back.

Please feel free to come along and have a free trial class.

Thursdays 4.45pm-5.45pm

Pulse Day Workshop – Melbourne Classical Acupuncturists

I have two spots left for my small, intimate Pulse Day Workshop on Sunday 30th November in Armadale.
This day is a collaborative, heart-centred exploration of pulse work — between practitioners, and with the patients who generously attend.

What the Day Looks Like

A small group of practitioners gather to hold space as invited patients come in for a pulse reading.

Together we:

*Take each patient’s pulse and write everything we find
*Explore different interpretations and ways of understanding the pulse
*Discuss what the pulse is indicating about the person in front of us
*Share treatment approaches, insights, and practitioner wisdom

The slow, spacious format allows patients to feel safe, held, and deeply seen — and in that openness, the pulse reveals more. Practitioners often leave with a renewed sense of just how much information the pulse can offer when given time and presence.

Workshop Details
📅 Sunday 30th November
⏰ 9:00am – 5:00pm
📍 Armadale
💲 $295

About Me
I’m Johannah Ashley, a classical acupuncture practitioner with 23 years’ experience. About eight years ago I discovered the Complement Channels, and they completely reshaped my practice.
In recent years I’ve been teaching and facilitating workshops to support practitioners who feel called toward this deeper, more embodied style of work.
My focus is on:
*Heart-centred, grounded clinical practice
*Practitioner support and community
helping practitioners navigate the shift into a new way of working
offering mentorship, guidance, and space to grow.

Stepping into a different tradition can feel overwhelming — but doing it with community makes all the difference.
If you’d like more details or to claim one of the last spots, please PM me.

Meet my newest patient Sussan! Poor Sussan got caught in a fence and has nerve damage in her legs now. The very inspiring Nicki Medwell from the Red Box Wildlife Animal Shelter asked me if I could come and give Sussan some acupuncture. So I thought I would give it a go. Sussan was a very good patient, she did a little grumpy with me, but she swore a lot less than my human clients

Such amazing and devoted care our animal shelters provide! My gratitude to you all, you bunch of angels! 😄

Thank you to all my inspiring patients who chose me to walk beside them this year as they traversed their own individual healing journeys.

I am so grateful to work with you! I have the best job in the world. It is such a gift to be given your trust, to be given entre into your heart and vulnerable spaces. I do not take the sacredness of that privilege lightly. It is through your willingness and trust that deep healing is possible.

I honour your bravery, strength and desire to grow and evolve ❤️

Merry Christmas!

Holiday Hours:
This time of year many services close and have a break. Which is well earned and important, but often this time of year our bodies can be so run down and our emotions exhausted. So if you are in need of some self-care or emergency treatment, I will be working select days between Christmas and New Years and open the first week of January.
Please feel free to call or book through the website at:
