These two 60-minute meet-and-greets are truly optional and offer trainees an opportunity to meet their peers in small groups ahead of Oct orientations. No need to pre-confirm, they won’t be recorded, and you can attend one, both, or neither:

• First Meet & Greet
  Tuesday, September 24 at 11:30am New York // 8:30am Vancouver // 17:30 Madrid
• Second Meet & Greet
  Monday, September 30 at 3:00pm New York // 12:00pm Vancouver // 21:00 Madrid

These 90-minute gatherings are required and truly important. Try to join live. If absent, listen to the recording after and post a reflection.

• Orientation One: Overview of the Training
  Thursday, Oct 3, 2024 – 11am New York // 17:00 Madrid 
• Orientation Two: Fundamentals of Ritual & Cultural Safety
  Monday, Oct 14 – 3pm New York // 21:00 Madrid 

Practice Intensives last four-to-six weeks, starting with the release of pre-recorded teachings and demonstrations that prepare trainees to exchange practice sessions with each other. Practice Intensive session exchanges last 2.5 hours each and are anchored by practitioners of Ancestral Lineage Healing. Each week then completes with a 90-minute live discussion/Q&A led by Daniel on Thursdays. Trainees should expect to dedicate around six hours per week during Practice Intensives for study, practice, and discussion.

Before each Practice Intensive, trainees select one (out of two) time slots per week for their interactive practice exchanges. Practice exchanges are not recorded, so live attendance is essential. In the case of emergency absences, make-ups are scheduled for the week after each intensive and typically require helping to reimburse the practitioner’s session fee (we are reasonable about this, and it’s our way of respecting practitioners and asking trainees to attend live).

This is a time for deepening through a regular flow of teachings & demonstrations, refining skills through exchanges with peers, and addressing any necessary proficiencies in preparation for guiding ancestral healing sessions for the public. During interim periods, trainees should expect to dedicate at least three hours weekly to training and practice. Interim period activities include:

• Regularly scheduled trainings and demonstrations that detail the individual steps of the Ancestral Lineage Healing method.
• Monthly Continuing Education offerings led by guest teachers on topics of culture, history, healing, and ritual arts.
• Regular engagement with mentors and mentorship pods.

After Practice Intensive Two, prepared trainees may begin to guide ancestral healing sessions with clients in tandem with individual and group supervision. Trainees must also document 40 public client sessions to be certified.
