REIKI LEVEL I — SHODEN
A 10-hour Reiki training in the traditional Japanese practice of Usui Reiki Ryōhō. A private 1:1 option is also available.
CLASS OVERVIEW
Reiki is a Japanese spiritual practice and healing art developed by Usui Mikao in the early 20th century to support well-being, self-cultivation, and personal growth. Shoden, meaning “First Teachings,” is the foundational level of Reiki training.
In this two-part immersive course, you will learn traditional Reiki practices for self-care and working with others. Through meditation, breathing exercises, self-treatment, hands-on practice, and study of the Reiki Precepts, you will cultivate greater presence, balance, and awareness.
As your practice deepens, supporting others arises naturally from your own embodied presence. Reiki becomes not simply a technique, but a path of personal cultivation, compassionate action, and deeper connection with life.
This course is open to both beginners and experienced practitioners who wish to deepen their understanding of the traditional Japanese approach to Reiki.
Attendance to the 10-hour class is needed to certify.
A minimum of two participants is required for the class to constitute a group.
All are welcome.
