Combining Indigenous and Western Education Methods
In order to allow this sacred learning to penetrate the entire being, we combine indigenous and western education methods such as:
|
|
Blended Format - Online Learning with Biannual Retreats
The Apprenticeship combines regular online classes with biannual retreats. Your classes (whether a lecture class or a shamanic healing demonstration) are conducted either through phone or online video conferencing, depending on the preference of the group and the instructor. Approximately every 6 months, your group will come together in a retreat setting to continue your work together, with in-person classes and shamanic healing demonstrations, experiential exercises, and ceremony. There are four retreats in all, usually lasting three days, although the third retreat is longer. |
Retreat Manuals - For each retreat, you'll receive a manual of supporting information and exercises.

Program Flexibility for Individualized and Group Needs
While there are basic structural components of the program (retreats, required academic classes, practicum classes, shamanic healing sessions), there is flexibility built into the design of the program. We have built in such flexibility because we want your apprenticeship to be individualized to your needs and to the needs of your apprenticeship group. For example, the number of individual shamanic healing sessions you have as well as the frequency of those sessions depends upon your healing needs. Program flexibility happens for groups as well. Some groups decide, for instance, that they would like an additional class period for a particularly challenging subject or they might elect to have a "review" class for the entire subject. Apprentices may also choose to have practicum classes in order to have more practice for skills learned at a retreat. We want to ensure that you get what you need to be the best possible shamanic healing practitioner you can be, so we built flexibility into the program.

“ [The instructor] brings in all of the senses when she teaches. It is fun, it is creative, it is engaging, and it is always unexpected. It all happened for me in a very visual way. I saw it, I felt it, and it spread out into my life. Close friends were always excited to find out what I had learned in ‘class’ that week.” ~ Joy, Apprentice
