Awaken your body’s instinctive mechanism of therapeutic tremoring — a natural, built-in healing intelligence that lives inside every one of us. In this experiential beginners course, you won’t just learn about Shaking Medicine — you will understand it by experiencing it.

Along the way, you’ll journey through 20+ different tremoring shapes, exploring the unique ways your body wants to move, release, and restore itself. By the end of the course you’ll have deepened your relationship with spontaneous shaking — turning it into a simple, reliable practice you can return to anytime for grounding, renewal, and well-being. No previous experience is required. Just bring your body, an open mind, and a willingness to let it shake. Ready to rediscover your body’s own medicine?

Dr. Keith Motes, PhD, is the founder of the Shaking Medicine Foundation, a unique somatic modality centered on spontaneous neurogenic movement. He is a quantum physicist, qualified Zenthai Shiatsu therapist, and experienced teacher of Yoga and Qi Gong. His journey into Shaking Medicine began with a profound personal experience of spontaneous therapeutic tremoring. This natural, instinctive process released long-held childhood trauma, revealing the body’s innate capacity for nervous system regulation, emotional integration, and self-healing. Inspired by this transformation, Dr. Motes developed Shaking Medicine as a safe, structured modality that integrates neurogenic tremoring with insights from science, Yoga, Taoist Qi Gong, and indigenous traditions. His unique integration of scientific rigor and deep commitment to spiritual growth and inner work enables him to guide people through powerful healing transformations with clarity, safety, and profound respect for the body’s natural intelligence.
