Some Definitions
Attunement: You be initiated into Reiki by means of "Reiju" or attunements. These are short meditations during which the energy of Reiki is given to you through your crown and into your chakra system. Each attunement you receive boosts your Reiki energy. We encourage you to get them as often as possible.
Note that even those who are not students or Reiki can get an open attunement.
Beginning with the first class, new members are introduced to the philosophy that underlies Saito Komyo Reiki practice. Special care is taken to ensure that new students receive personalized attention as they take their first steps on the path of enlightenment through Reiki. Mastery and continued study is dependent upon a strong foundation, therefore beginners are carefully guided as they begin their path of self healing, learning how to understand their own gifts and relate to the perfection in their life.

Okuden Degree - Inner Teacher
Deepen the journey to inner teacher
At this level, we gain access to the spiritual aspects of Reiki. We go within again to become masters of ourselves, to explore our own wisdom and discover our journey to enlightenment. Practitioners who decide to take Okuden will know when they are called to do so. Remember it is not a matter of advancement but one of deepening our journey to Satori.
You will enter the inner teaching of Reiki. You will learn to focus on your spiritual cultivation and growth. With two attunments, you will learn the final Shirushi and open to your own spiritual voice, your own inner teacher.
Okuden is intended for those students who would like to deepen their study of Reiki as a spiritual practice and therefore increase their own inner peace and harmony. It is also for those who want to consider Shinpiden Degree. It is a one day class, but a student is recommended to refresh this course and consult with teachers individually after this training.
Class time: 6 hours Fee $550 Refresher $100
Shinpiden Degree - Teaching Others
Sharing Reiki with others as teacherA small percentage of Reiki Practitioners become ready to teach and share their life in Reiki on a continuous basis. An Okuden student may apply for Teacher Training by submitting an essay describing their Reiki journey and what they have learned to share as teacher.
At this point, the student will undertake training to teach classes, run their own Dojo, assess students, work with young practitoners inside sessions and counsel both clients and students through their journey. This is yet another step along the path to enlightenment as we become student again with everyone we teach.
One day class with continued training for at least one year. Student teacher will sit in on classes for all degrees and take part as they grow their teaching skills. You will learn to do attunements right away and become available to practice this art here with students.
Class time: Originally 6 hours then continued classroom time for one year to certification Fee $1100
