Format
18 (twice per month) 3-hour virtual classes on Saturdays or Sundays
2 weekend intensives on Saturday and Sunday to open and close the program
Participants are encouraged to engage in a private on-going virtual discussion group created for each cohort.
Cohorts are small groups to provide an intense learning experience. Participants tend to bond closely and form connections that last beyond the program.
The first step is a weekend intensive to build a foundation of connection and trust so that we all move into the program receptive and ready to embrace the psycho-spiritual depth of this work.
After the initial weekend intensive, each class focuses on an Enneagram type and related special topics. Types are described and demonstrated through recordings, videos, and panels. Panel volunteers are interviewed with respect and compassion to make their experience as comfortable as possible.
Each type is split over two classes, which may include: an audio recorded panel teaching, panel processing, discussing reactions from our own fixations, teaching on instinctual stacking and how it affects type, learning how to embody the pattern, somatic and creative practices to explore type, and work at releasing and transforming patterns to return to Essence.
The final step is a weekend intensive, which provides the final supportive structure needed to move out into the world as an enneagram teacher, facilitator, and consultant in the Embodiment Tradition.
Price
Each month (2 classes) and each retreat is $180 payable in monthly installments. So, $180/month for 11 months.

Participant Goals
Understand the Enneagram deeply
Learn how to teach, facilitate, and/or provide consultation using the Enneagram effectively
Transform your Enneagram patterns – from strategies (beliefs, feelings, and behaviors) that are painful and limited to strategies that help you get our deepest needs met and make you available for real connection to others and yourself
Discover the liberated Essence of the Types
Curriculum
Participants learn how to describe and demonstrate the types, instincts/subtypes, movement, and pattern transformation.
Participants learn that we are born with a pattern – a way of seeing, understanding, and responding that is not personal, unique or individual.
Participants learn how the Enneagram is a tool for liberation and freedom. They learn that recognizing and accepting these patterns is the first step in a much bigger journey to liberation.
Participants learn the Enneagram’s original purpose: psycho-spiritual awakening and liberation. When this is done well, people resonate and go on to delve deeper into their healing process. If it is not done well, people often find the information interesting but do not understand its deep importance and power. When the Enneagram teaching is clear and deep, it is a path to freedom from a contracted heart, mind, and body.
Participants learn that the Enneagram can be dynamic and demonstrative. They learn how to act out, embody, the energetic expression of each pattern so they see and feel the difference between each pattern. When the Enneagram is taught only descriptively it can be confusing because we all share so many behaviors, tendencies, and emotions. When the energetic dynamic is embodied and acted out, people get a feel for what is deeper than the personality or behavior. The underlying motivations influencing each type are presented in body language, talking style, and general demeanor. A skilled teacher has processed and transcended enough of their own Enneagram pattern to cleanly embody each of the other patterns.
