Shamanic Practitioners Training

The Shamanic Practitioners Training is a year-long accredited course led by Dolly Aguilar at EarthSpirit Centre in Compton Dundon, Somerset, England. It is for people who want to work as a shamanic practitioner with clients, and equally for those who simply want to deepen their own personal growth through core shamanic practice. This listing is for the January weekend of the course, held in the Little Earth building at the Centre.

What to Expect

The course is held by a highly qualified and experienced team and is designed to give participants the knowledge and skills needed to practise shamanic work with clients. Over the year, it explores all the key aspects and teachings of core shamanic practice. The January gathering runs over a long weekend of four days, one session in a longer course rather than a standalone workshop.

Because the training is accredited and spread across a year, it suits people who are ready to commit to a sustained path of learning. Those drawn to shamanism for their own growth rather than for professional work are also welcome, as the course is built to serve both aims.
