About Class schedules
To provide some sense of activity level and time spent in the Apprenticeship, a typical weekly schedule might look something like this:
|
SAMPLE Weekly Schedule
2-hour Academic Group Class Subject: Shamanism and the Shamanic Worldview Book: The Hollow Bone by Colleen Deatsman 2-hour Live Demonstration of Healing Session Followed by Discussion 1.5-hour Private Individual Shamanic Healing Session Generally, individual shamanic healing sessions are scheduled every other week, so some weeks you'll only have the regularly scheduled classes. |
Scheduling of Classes
About a month before the first retreat, the classes will be scheduled by the Apprenticeship Leader. You can expect to have classes scheduled anytime between 8:00am and 2:00pm Pacific time. Holidays
There are breaks throughout the year, such as at Thanksgiving, Winter Holiday, Spring Break, and Summer Break. |
