Join Gwyn Williams, the celebrated creator and founder of Zen Thai Shiatsu, as we explore the first principle of this new book
‘5 Principles of an Undivided Life’.
Distraction is a thief that steals our life force by destabilising our inner centre.
Can we pay attention to what we are paying attention to?
Can we fully occupy each moment with a fierce and articulate presence?
In this class we will focus on the legs, pelvis and sacroiliac joint as a way to stabilise our body, both physically and energetically. Stand with an empowered solidarity that cannot be provoked.
“What are you broadcasting right now?“
Gwyn is a true master in his field, known for his deep humility, refined skill and joyful presence.
Practicing with Gwyn is a truly unique expereince, not to be missed.
His presence and teachings will leave you feeling, as Gwyn says: "empty empty, happy happy” — at peace and content, with no need for more.
It's truly an honour to have Gwyn here with us at Folde.

Gwyn Williams
Gwyn began his first steps into the foundation of the Zenthai artform in his teenage years with a fascination and complete absorption with life force energy (Ki).
A self confessed life force fanatic, his earlier years involved in using the life force to fight and compete. As a serious martial artist and later a competitive mountain runner, the focus was on expending Ki, however when he later moved into alternative therapies and yoga in 1997, he realised that the real focus needed to be on sustaining and containing life force to utilise its full power. This has carried through to the present day sharing the importance of embracing a Yin and Yang aspect in daily life.
‘Life force is like a huge hose – when it is strong it not only has the capacity to purify the body and create vitality but also the strength to constantly move debris and stagnation that collects in our body, mind & spirit.’
Gwyn runs a range of courses and retreats varying from 2 hour workshops to 12 month programs. Some students walk away and create their own Zenthai therapy clinics, others add tools to a present practice, others bring depth and deep mindful touch to their yoga classes, others love simply sharing with family and friends. What all walk away with is a new relationship: with themself, with nature, with others – a relationship that values the present moment and allows a deeper love and acceptance for all.
Gwyn has been teaching his entire adult life. Earlier as a physical education teacher, martial arts instructor and later as a yoga teacher and Zenthai facilitator. His passion for alternative therapies and connecting his heart with his hands led to him teaching Zen Shiatsu at his created Mt. Ninderry Healing Centre in 1999. Since this initial class he has become a national and international teacher of his own form of bodywork/movement and awareness.
