There’s something special about learning Jin Shin Jyutsu in a place where the work has been lived, practiced, and loved for many years. This four-day immersive class returns to Alaqua Animal Refuge, Adele’s long-time home base on Florida’s Emerald Coast, where the Art naturally unfolds through connection with the animals.

The beautiful 100 acres of Alaqua Animal Refuge provide a rich, living classroom where the Art of Jin Shin Jyutsu comes alive through direct, heart-centered experiences with the animals.

Through classroom instruction, guided self-help, and hands-on practice with Alaqua’s dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, goats, and tortoises—who live at the refuge while waiting for their forever families—students experience Jin Shin Jyutsu as a living, breathing practice: a way of living with animals.

If you’re longing for a deeper bond with animals and a meaningful way to support their balance and well-being, this class is for you. The class is open to students new to the Art as well as long-time practitioners. It also counts toward the multi-species requirement for certification in JSJ for Your Animal Companions.
