Classes & Practice Sessions

Reiki I, II & Master Level Classes

Reiki classes at the center are very unique in that two forms of Reiki are offered. Usui Reiki is the type that is most familiar and widespread; it makes available earth energy for healing. However, there is a second type of Reiki called Tera-Mai Seichem Reiki which is part of the ancient form that Dr.Usui (the founder) was given in Japan, yet when he attuned Hawayo Takata who brought it back to Hawaii in 1941, he left out several of the original symbols. These missing symbols make up Seichem Reiki and include the elements fire, water and angelic light/air. Reiki classes at the center attune the student to both types of Reiki and offer the fully intended healing art. All levels of Reiki are taught throughout the year, usually as a series. Students are free to take as many levels as they are guided. Class size is limited to 9 students to ensure personalized attention to each student during class. Please see the buttons above for the most current class schedule>

Reiki I Certification: Usui /Seichem Reiki I is the first class in the series and is for the person who would like to learn about healing energy work. No previous experience is necessary; however, receiving a Reiki treatment prior to taking the class is encouraged. As an introduction, the history and philosophy of Reiki is discussed and general concepts regarding the human energy system are introduced. Students will have many opportunities to both give and receive Reiki treatments. During the class the student will participate in the attunement ceremony which helps increase the student’s abilities to offer healing energy for self-care as well as to friends and family. It is a very special part of the class and students most especially look forward to this segment of the course. The students will also receive the Order of Melchizadek Initiation at this time. A certificate is given at the end of class. The class is offered over one day or during two evenings and includes 7 hours of training. $170

Reiki II Certification: Usui/Seichem Reiki II is a continuation and deepening of the Reiki concepts and skills learned in Reiki I. In addition there are new symbols added for specific uses and the student learns how to send Reiki over a distance. There is ample practice time during the course and students give and receive treatments. There is another attunement ceremony held during the class and includes the Violet Flame Attunement. A certificate is given at the end of class. The prospective student must provide a certificate of completing Reiki I and it is advised to wait at least a month between levels in order to fully integrate the knowledge learned from the prior level. This class is offered over a day and is 8 hours long. Prerequisite: Reiki Level I with Nancy. $190

Usui/Seichem Reiki III Certification and Master Level Certification: After completing this final level of Reiki, the student will have achieved Master status. There are two components to completing this course of study. Prior to signing up for this class, the student must provide certificates of Reiki I and Reiki II completion, and must be comfortable with giving Reiki treatments to others, along with using the proper symbols and techniques. A minimum time of three months after Reiki II and providing evidence of practice is expected. The class is a full day and includes a review of previous material in addition to teaching the Master level symbols and conducting an attunement. Since this level is to prepare the student for becoming a professional Reiki Master, topics will include documenting sessions and how to set up a business. There is a special attunement ceremony and celebration at the end of class. The course lasts a full day and is 8 hours long. Prerequisite: Reiki Level I and II with Nancy. $210

The second part of the Master Level Certification training is an apprenticeship period that lasts at least two months. During this time the Reiki III student is expected to conduct 6 Reiki treatments with written notes-this is reviewed in the Reiki III class. Participation in Reiki shares at the wellness center, or if the student is out-of -town participation in shares near the student’s area will be accepted. This will give the student the opportunity to practice skills learned in class and can be used toward the required treatments. The student is also asked to read at least one book about his/her connection with Spirit for personal growth work. The student will also be expected to submit a brief business plan outlining his/her goals on how he/she plans on setting up his/her practice. At the end of this period the student will meet with the Reiki Master and review the work. Upon approval, a certificate of Reiki Master will be given. The review session will last 1-2 hours. $70

The classes are held as a series over a period of 6 months. A prospective student who decides on taking all three levels with Master level and signs up and pays for the package prior to the series , will receive a discount of 10%. If a student wishes to take a bit longer and join a later class series, this is perfectly fine and the discount still applies.
If a prospective Usui student is interested in learning about and being attuned with Seichem Reiki in addition to the training that they already have, this can be arranged. The student will participate in the class as usual and during the attunement ceremony will only receive Seichem Reiki. There is a price reduction offered, since the student has taken Usui Reiki previously with another instructor. This is 15% off per class, or 20% discount for the series. The student must begin with Reiki I for comprehensiveness of the program.
