Upon mutual agreement, after a number of classes, it is envisaged that some people will develop their facilitation to assist in IWC workshops and retreats.
There may be possibilities of assistants then moving on to co-facilitating or facilitating workshops.
Prerequisite: completion of 2 weekend workshops and one 7-day or longer retreat with IWC. This ensures that there is a level of embodiment prior to learning how to hold space and facilitate.
Some may do this for their own interest and healing journey. Others to incorporate elements into their work. While others may feel to go all the way to facilitation. This particular road is an exciting and challenging one. It may require in depth inner and outer work and your own healing journey to parallel the training journey. It is very rewarding, flexible and takes elements of the indigenous ways in that there is no determined time frame with pieces of paper at the end (however a Certificate of Attendance can be supplied) but would take the form of an apprenticeship-type process.
