About these seminars

Held in Japan

These videos are recordings of seminars that Tadahiro Koto gave in Japan, in Japanese, for practitioners in Japan. They weren't made for an overseas audience. We publish them here so that people outside Japan can see them.

What seitai means here

Seitai (整体) is a Japanese word for hands-on work on the body. There's no single method, and schools and practitioners in Japan work in different ways. What you see here is how Koto works and how he teaches it in Japan.

Translated from Japanese

Koto speaks Japanese throughout. The English subtitles are our translation of what he says, and you can show the Japanese next to the English at any time. Some Japanese words stay as they are when English has no equal, and a translation can contain mistakes. If the two differ, the Japanese is the original.

A record, not a course

We're publishing seminars that have already happened. They were held for seitai practitioners working in Japan. These videos are a look at those seminars. They don't recommend that you work on other people.

The membership doesn't include coaching, feedback or answers to questions about what's in the videos, and we don't follow up after you watch. It doesn't lead to a qualification, and Koto doesn't certify or approve anyone through this site.

The videos aren't health advice, for you or for anyone else. If you have a health concern, see a doctor or another licensed professional where you live.

Words said on screen

The videos were recorded for the people in the room, and also for a video service in Japan. When a speaker addresses the class or viewers, for example by asking them to try something, those words are meant for them. They aren't instructions or advice to you.

Where you are

The seminars show what's done in Japan. The rules on touching or treating another person differ by country and region. If you want to learn hands-on work, please do it through proper training, following the laws of the country where you live. Our Terms explain this in full.
