I had the good fortune to be able to attend a Now Know Myself class in Louisville, Kentucky, last year, where Carlos was one of the instructors (together with Jill Pasquinelli and Michael Wenninger). It was a really interesting class, and I hope to be able to get to a class with Carlos again. A friend of mine went to one of his 5 day classes, and said that she had a lot of “aha-moments”…
Here are some words about him, from the jsjinc.net page:
https://www.jsjinc.net/bio.php?id=5
Carlos Gutterres is a Jin Shin Jyutsu 5-day class and Now Know Myself instructor.He is from Brazil and was born in Porto Alegre. Since he was very young he has had a deep interest in the mysteries of nature and the human being, and throughout his life he has pursued the study of philosophy, psychology, numerology, astrology, and Kabbalah. He has been associated with several philanthropic and spiritual organizations, including one that he founded.
After working in industry for two decades, he felt he needed a channel to express everything he had been studying. He found this channel in the healing arts, first learning flower essence therapy and becoming a researcher and practitioner, then Reiki, and finally Jin Shin Jyutsu. He developed a flower essences system called Vida. He is the author of many articles and the book, A New Purpose of Vibrational Healing. As a student and practitioner of Jin Shin Jyutsu in Brazil, he has been committed to sharing awareness of the Art through articles, talks, interviews, self help classes and study groups throughout the country.
Carlos lives on a ranch near Porto Alegre with his wife, Vivian, where he enjoys contact with nature, and in this peaceful place continues his studies.He has three children from his first marriage: Daniel, Leonardo, and Vivian.
And here you can find his classes (it will probably be a lot more classes in 2019, than the classes posted right now):
