44 and One

A Premium Somatic Experience

 

44+ weeks of felt encounters

with elements of Jin Shin Jyutsu –

a quiet companion for people who value

feeling over fixing.

  

One year of inhabitancy. A lifetime of being.

About 44 and One

 

Forty‑four years ago I moved to New York to become a dancer. I wasn’t so interested in how many pirouettes I could do or how high I could jump. I wanted to find out what it would feel like to inhabit my body and my life more fully, to let them fly. On that path I met Aileen Passloff, who introduced me to Jin Shin Jyutsu not as an “alternative healing art,” but as a way of feeling and grounding myself more deeply in my body, in the space around me, and in life itself. Over time it became a daily practice, a way of living, and my life’s work.

44 and One grows out of that long conversation. It is a year‑long rhythm of short, guided felt encounters with this Art.

Who is 44 and One for?

 

44 and One is for people with a somatic sensibility who want a quiet, high‑quality companion over time, not another head‑heavy online course.

 

  • Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioners and serious students 
    who want to move beyond theory into a lived, embodied knowing.

  • Deep seekers
    who want to keep the work alive in their own system outside of classes – not by memorising more flows, but by living with the Art's building blocks from week to week.

  • Somatically inclined people
    whose work already moves through the body, be it in dance, yoga, Feldenkrais, body‑oriented therapy, trauma‑sensitive work, or contemplative practice.

  • Kinesthetic learners
    who resonate with “felt sense” and prefer experience first, theory later.

  • Those who trust long, gentle exposure
    more than quick fixes or intensive programs, who want a quiet companion for durable transformation over time rather than another program to get through.

  • Anyone who “values feeling over fixing”
    and is curious what happens when that becomes a weekly rhythm rather than an occasional insight.

What the weekly felt encounters are like

 

Instead of lessons to get through, 44 and One offers short felt encounters with elements of Jin Shin Jyutsu. Sometimes you simply sit as you are with a single sentence and notice what it awakens in you; at other times you rest your awareness in a particular area of your body or along a pathway of movement. In each case you begin with the felt sense, and only then do we give that dimension, location, or pathway its Jin Shin Jyutsu name. 

 

Over the course of 44 and One you will…

 

  • Let Jin Shin Jyutsu become a way of remembering who you are
    Rather than a “healing art” to study from the outside, 44 and One invites you to into weekly felt encounters that help you feel more rooted in your body, your space, and your life.

  • Meet the Depths, Safety Energy Locks and Organ Flows as living experiences
    Through simple, guided explorations, you’ll sense how these dimensions, locations, and pathways are not abstract ideas but currents and textures in your own being. By staying with their felt presence, you give them more room to move and express in your life.

  • Notice that nothing essential is missing
    Week by week, you may find that what Jin Shin Jyutsu names as Depths, Safety Energy Locks, and Organ Flows are not things to acquire but aspects of your aliveness that have always been there. As you keep feeling them, they become more available, more trusted, and more fully lived.

  • Settle into a gentle weekly rhythm of practice
    One short video, one small exploration, repeated over 44+ weeks, creates a soft, reliable pulse in your life – a quiet companion rather than a course to finish.

  • Weave this art into the life you already have
    Instead of adding more to your to‑do list, you’ll receive small invitations and questions that can travel with you – on a train, between conversations, or in the quiet moments of your day.

The arc of 44 and 1 : 9 Dimensions, 26 Locations, 12 Pathways

 

Over the year, 44 and One moves through three strands of Jin Shin Jyutsu. We begin with the 9 Depths – felt here as nine Dimensions of being. We then travel through the 26 Safety Energy Locks – the Locations where steps of human unfolding anchor in the body. Finally, we get a taste of the 12 Organ Function Energy flows – the Pathways that weave human lifeforce and desire into an individualized life, body and action. Each week you meet one of these through a short felt encounter, so that over time these dimensions, locations, and pathways begin to inflect and change your way of being from within.

Jin Shin Jyutsu is a Japanese art of harmonising lifeforce through touch and awareness. In 44 and One, we meet these depths, locations, and pathways first as lived experience rather than theory.

The 9 Depths

The 26 Safety Energy Locks
