Tokyo Therapeutic Institute and graduated from it in March, 2003. Since
then, he has been teaching Namikoshi Shiatsu theory, Shiatsu practice
and anma massage Shiatsu practice at the Japan Shiatsu College.
~~ People might think Shiatsu can be learned easily at first, but the
longer you practise and experience Shiatsu, the more difficult and
interesting you will find it. I would like anyone, including those who
have never experienced Shiatsu as well as those who already practise
it, to participate in the 15th International Shiatsu Conference and
enjoy the workshops and seminars during the 2 days. I am looking
forward to seeing you in Vancouver. Best regard, Hiroshi Kanda ~~

Fumihiko
Indei, an International Shiatsu Instructor and the Principal of Aisen
Shiatsu School of Hawaii was born in Saitama, Japan. Graduating from
the Japan Shiatsu College in 1973, he went on to assist Tokujiro
Namikoshi Sensei (Chairman of Japan Shiatsu College at that time) in
developing his network of Shiatsu instructors. In 1975, Indei
participated in the Shiatsu Shinzen Tour in Vancouver, Canada, after
which he endeavoured, unsuccessfully, to introduce Shiatsu treatment to
traditional Budo (a martial art) dojos in Japan. Undeterred, he moved
to Hawaii in 1975, bringing his knowledge of Shiatsu to a place where
it was previously unknown. After he obtained a US massage license he
was recognized as an instructor by the Shiatsu Therapeutic Association
of America. Then he began to instruct Shiatsu as a non-credit course at
the University of Hawaii's Manoa campus and went on to help Tokujiro
Namikoshi Sensei, Chairman of the Japan Shiatsu College at the time,
develop the network of Shiatsu instructors.
Aisen Chiryo Doin opened in
1977 and later that year, in September, the Aisen Shiatsu School was
established. Since then, its graduates number well over 460. The
student body is truly international with a diverse population such as
Japanese and their descendents, Hawaii, Samoan, African-American and
Caucasian. One of the courses offered at the school is a seminar held
in co-operation with the University of Hawaii Medical School.
Since 1978 Indei Sensei has
participated as a Shiatsu Association of US volunteer at the Honolulu
Marathon, the Hale Malamalama Rest Homes and the Kuakini Hospital. Due
to his outstanding achievements and reputation many famous Americans
and international figures visit him. He became President of Hawaii
Saitama Kenjinkai in 1980. In 1987 he received an Award of Merit from
the State of Hawaii and in 1998 he was given the Award of Merit by both
the State of Hawaii and the City and County of Honolulu. As well he was
presented an award by the Cultural Foundation for Promoting the
National Costume of Japan for his efforts in popularizing Japanese
culture. In 2007 the Aisen Chiryo Doin celebrated its 30th anniversary
with Indei sensei dedicating himself to nurturing future Shiatsu
practitioners in Hawaii, spurred on by his motto "the popularization of
Shiatsu overseas".

instructing Shiatsu practice again at the College.
~~
I would like to give a lecture on Thumb-on-thumb Pressure and Two-thumb
Pressure to the anterior cervical, lateral cervical, and posterior
cervical, because a treatment for the neck is tremendously significant
for Shiatsu therapy. Best regards, Tetsuo Inaba ~~
