Hear directly from Dr. Sonia F. Tan about what to expect from her upcoming Balance System Acupuncture workshop in Sydney this November.

If you have been wondering whether Levels 2.5, 3, and 4 are the right next step for your practice, this is worth watching before you decide.

The workshop covers Level 2.5 as a practical refresher, Level 3 Channel Conversion using the Yi Jing to treat internal medicine presentations, and Level 4 with the Twelve Magical Points framework for complex, multi-system pathologies.

Dr. Tan is one of only 16 Gold Level certified practitioners of the Balance Method worldwide, and this is the only opportunity to learn directly from her in Australia this year.

📍 13 to 15 November 2026, Rydges Sydney Central, Surry Hills

Balance method in action 😌 we loved having YSU alum & instructor Dr. Sonia Tan with us over the weekend for a very exciting Balanced Method seminar. Our MAcCHM got a taste of this technique and observed volunteer patients who got treatments from Dr. Tan. Thank you, Dr. Tan, for this beautiful opportunity for our students to expand their clinical toolkit & needling skills!

Time flew by in a instant and now I am 27 (late 20s😆😬)

This week I celebrated my bday as well as celebrating 7 years of running Sea To Sky Media. Many new opportunities that I worked on from being a DOP on a product commercial to stepping more into being a documentary filmmaker.

With all these blessings, there were learning points mainly learning to be more confident in what I am doing as well as continue to be patient/consistent.

Consistency is something all of us including myseld wants to pursue. But I learned that consistency doesn't always have to be posting all the time (at the same time, should be showcasing more BTS😆). The quiet learning moments and improving your craft equals consisitency.

7 years ago, I started my business thinking of my making cool videos. But today, I focus more on crafting an impactful story that can help a business as well as creating something that speaks to me.

Thank you to all the colleagues, friends, and clients i have worked over these years. Most importantly my Heavenly Father for being my constant rock and guidance.

I continue to look forward to creating these lasting relationships and building something amazing together. 🙏❤️😊

It's official - I'm a Certified Chinese Astrology Consultant ✨ Excited for this new role in the service of helping people find greater ease in life, and in service of Traditional East Asian Medicine, and Classical Chinese Medicine and Metaphysics. Heart full after my birthday weekend just happened to align with our graduation and @soniaftan Tan Academy of Balance Celebration Day, in honour of the many Tan birthdays. And on the heels of the Grand Opening of our new location in Vancouver's historic Chinatown! It's been an awe filled journey, first with the Balance System Acupuncture mentorship program, and now dipping my toes into the vast world of the Bā Zì. While this will be a lifelong journey, these past 5 years have deepened my understanding of this medicine profoundly. So proud of this mighty little school and honoured to be part of it, excited for the ongoing growth and learning, and greatly looking forward to all future connections on my path as a fledgling astrologer. If you're looking for a new layer of insight on your own path, let's chat! To the flow~~~
