Reiki Training

Do you believe in magic?

Reiki can bring you towards profound healing—regardless of any internally held beliefs or externally imposed dogmas. So, you don’t need to believe in magic, reiki, or anything in particular for it to work.

What is reiki?

Reiki healing energy helps to bring balance to your mind, body, spirit, and emotions. And this creates a profound vibration of harmony in your life that can resonate outward to your community and beyond.

This gentle-yet-powerful modality can be easily learned and shared with others.

Learning reiki helps to deepen your intuition and strengthen your connection to yourself and all beings.

Reiki 1 & 2 Training and Certification

In this 2-day in-person training, you will learn how to heal yourself and others with reiki.

This is the most comprehensive beginner training program available and follows the guidelines of The International Center for Reiki Training® (ICRT), which is the largest and most widely known reiki organization in the world. The curriculum includes Japanese Reiki Techniques by Usui Sensei (Founder), Western style as introduced by Takata Sensei, and Holy Fire® III Reiki introduced by the ICRT.

When?

The schedule is Saturday and Sunday from 9:30am – 5:30pm in person in NYC. Attendance on both days is mandatory to receive certification.

Where?

A private studio in the vibrant neighborhood of Astoria, Queens in New York City. The studio is located near the 30th Avenue N/W subway station.

Exact address will be provided upon sign-up.

No experience is necessary and all are welcome.

Reiki training can be useful for anyone and it is particularly helpful for caregivers and anyone who works in health and wellness, the creative arts, business, education, or any type of service industry.

Those already trained in reiki are welcome to attend this course to refresh and strengthen their practice. Healers in other modalities will find this training deeply supportive to their existing work, as well.

Class size will be kept very small so that students can receive personalized instruction.
