I am dedicated to providing you with the necessary tools you will need to build a firm Reiki foundation rooted in history, traditions, principles, and techniques. While the majority of my training format is private training, on occasion I offer small group training classes. If you are interested in small group training, click here.

Why I Teach Reiki One-on-One
Choosing to offer one-on-one Reiki training has several advantages that align closely with my personal commitment to maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the Reiki practice. The decision to teach one-on-one emerged gradually as I deepened my understanding of the practice as a Reiki Master Teacher.
There is a profound and personal connection that forms between the student and the teacher, which I believe is essential while a new student is learning and growing in the practice of Reiki. One-on-one training allows me to support the student's overall personal and spiritual development as they learn to integrate Reiki into their daily lives.
My primary goal in teaching privately is to preserve the authenticity and integrity of Reiki. By teaching one-on-one, I can ensure that the process remains genuine and true to the core principles of Reiki. This approach allows me to prioritize the quality of teaching and meet individual needs effectively.
By choosing one-on-one Reiki training, I can offer a more personalized, focused, and authentic learning experience, aligning with my personal values and ensuring that each student receives the full benefit of my expertise and guidance.
The Reiki Attunement Process
The Reiki attunement process is a sacred and transformative ceremony that opens the channels within a student to allow the flow of Reiki energy. This process is essential for becoming a Reiki practitioner. The attunement process is considered sacred; therefore, this is a very brief explanation of the attunement process. Students will learn more during training and as they advance in the degrees of Reiki.
During an attunement, the student is seated on a chair with their feet flat on the floor. The Reiki Master Teacher uses mudras, breathwork, intentions, symbols, and calls upon their spiritual team to extend the Reiki teachings into their lineage.
In the days following the attunement, you may experience a process of detoxing and coming into alignment with yourself that can include: feeling tired, sore, or under the weather or you may feel lighter and more vibrant, needing more or less sleep, vivid dreams, synchronicities, and heightened intuition, an awakening to your purpose and passions, learn more about yourself (mind, body, emotions), acknowledgement of emotions that were previously suppressed, need for alone time or boundaries, and/or self-acceptance for yourself and your past. These are examples of what others have experienced. You may experience nothing at all, and that is fine too! The Reiki will be there.
The Reiki attunement process is a profound initiation into the practice of Reiki. It aligns the student’s energy with the universal life force, enabling them to channel healing energy for themselves and others. The careful preparation, sacred ceremony, and ongoing support provided by the teacher ensure that the student can fully integrate and utilize this powerful healing modality.
Why I Do Not Teach Reiki or offer Attunements Online
While Reiki can absolutely be sent at a distance, I personally do not teach Reiki classes online or offer Reiki attunements virtually. This is a choice I have made out of deep respect for Reiki tradition, the attunement process, and the responsibility I hold as a Reiki Master Teacher.
Reiki training is more than receiving information. It is an embodied experience. Students are learning how to sense energy, practice self-Reiki, understand hand placements, ask questions in real time, receive guidance, and experience the presence of Reiki in a grounded and supportive space. Being together in person allows me to observe, support, and guide each student in a way that feels personal, respectful, and complete.
My understanding of the sacredness of the attunement process deepened during additional Reiki training in Hawaii with Hyakuten Inamoto Sensei, a Japanese Buddhist monk, native of Kyoto, Japan, and founder of Komyo ReikiDo. During this training, Hyakuten-Sensei shared that Reiki attunements are to be offered in person only. This deeply affirmed my own commitment to honoring the attunement process as a sacred, face-to-face transmission between teacher and student. I also would not have been able to attend his training had I not received my Reiki Master attunement in person, which further reinforced the importance of in-person Reiki training, lineage, and spiritual integrity.
Because of this, the attunement itself is sacred to me. I believe it is best received in person, where teacher and student are fully present together. In-person training allows space for the student to process the experience, share what came up, and receive support immediately. It also honors the traditional teacher-student connection that has been passed down through Reiki lineage.
This does not mean online Reiki training or distant attunements are wrong. Many teachers offer them, and many students feel called to that path. I have personally received both in-person and online Reiki training and each experience was meaningful and valuable in its own way.
Could that change in the future? Absolutely. Reiki continues to teach, unfold, and guide me. For now, I feel called to offer Reiki training and attunements in person, in a sacred space where teacher and student can be fully present together.
Reiki is a path of connection. For my students, I believe that connection begins most powerfully when we gather in person, in sacred space, with intention, respect, and an open heart.
