Learn Reiki

Reiki is a powerful but gentle Japanese energy healing technique that can be learned by anyone, and used wherever or whenever it is needed to bring healing, happiness and success.

We teach all levels of Reiki in English in Japan in week-long retreats in Kyoto for small groups of likeminded individuals.

All classes are in English.

For Reiki classes in the UK visit our sister site.

The Retreat

Each week-long course will take place in Kyoto, the traditional heart of Japan, the home of Reiki, and host to famous golden temple, geisha, and other historic sights where we can walk in Sensei Usui’s footsteps. Classes will be held in small groups in a traditional machiya (town house) or ryokan.

The Experience

Every day there will be some theoretical teaching and some practical experience in giving and receiving Reiki.

As well as the workshop, our experience will continue with sightseeing around Kyoto, a calligraphy experience and a Zen meditation.

There will be an opportunity to try a different type of Japanese food each day.

The Training

Classes are available in all levels of Reiki

Reiki I & II - go from complete beginner to qualified practitioner

Reiki Masters - the advanced practitioner and teacher levels

Karuna Reiki®- from qualified Usui Master to Karuna Master

Teaching will be in small groups, and includes hands-on experience and time to practice what you have learned.
