Author: Michelle Locke. Adv Dip Dance, BA Nursing, PostGrad Hypnotherapy, Dip Shiatsu,

Michelle Locke was a professional ballerina before an injury ended her career. She became a Shiatsu therapist and founded the Shiatsu School of Western Australia, training practitioners for many years.

She developed Wu Tao,  a dance practice based on Chinese Medicine, which aims to balance Life Force energy in the body and restore physical balance, emotional equilibrium and peace of mind. Michelle's daughter passed away in 2011, but her legacy lives on.
