Shinpiden: Reiki Third Degree
“Once all the noise is quieted, it’s amazing what has room to make itself noticeable. I had so many revelations in that space...”
Shinpiden Reiki III (Mystery Teachings) A deep dive into the pool of mystery that lies at the heart of Reiki, a pool that is deeply connected to tributaries of Japanese esoteric spiritual energy traditions. Emphasis is on living and being Reiki as an intrinsic part of one's being. To support this, we'll be devoting spaciousness to extended practice sessions, and teaching a wide range of practices. To this end, Shinpiden is a 12-week class.
Prerequisite: Reiki II certification, from any teaching lineage.
Transition to Shinpiden: There are notable differences between practicing Reiki from the Western perspective, vs. its Japanese origins. For that reason, we created a self-paced mini-class called Transitions to Shinpiden, to support you to begin immersing in the world of Reiki from its Japanese origins, and prepare you for a strong Shinpiden experience. If you received your Reiki II certification in Western Reiki, you will be given password access to this course, found at the button below. Need more info? Let’s have a conversation about it!

Teacher Training: This class is a pre-requisite for anyone wishing to train as a Reiki teacher. If you are interested in Reiki teacher training, please get in touch with us.
In this training you'll receive:
Certification as a Reiki III Practitioner,
Meditation and energy practices drawn from the esoteric Japanese roots of Reiki. The emphasis in this class is on experiencing longer, deeper meditation sessions than in Reiki I & II trainings,
Introduction to the fourth Reiki symbol and mantra, and their role in connecting to the Mystery,
Training on performing Reiki reiju, or initiations (sometimes known as “attunement'“) on others, and orientation to their purpose in the system of Reiki,
Opportunity to enter our Reiki Teaching Apprenticeship to become a certified Reiki teacher (more details coming soon),
One gift Reiki session by Michaela at HeartScapes Studio in Davis, or virtually, upon completing class assessment.
After training, students receive these on-going opportunities:
Monthly Practitioner Group: Gatherings that support your personal practice, and service opportunities to bring Reiki to the larger community.
Re-immersion: Students are invited to deepen their learning by re-taking a training when space in the class permits. Re-immersions are offered on a donation basis, and donations are added to our scholarship fund.
Treatments: When class size permits, students may attend the treatment portion of a class and give/receive sessions at no charge.
Class Structure
Our Reiki certification classes are taught in 8-week (Reiki I & II) and 12-week (Reiki III) sessions, 2 hours per week. This structure offers the spaciousness necessary to deeply engage with the five elements of the system of Reiki, and gradually integrate them into your life.
All classes can be attended either on-line or in person at our Davis, CA studio. See links below to learn more about each of the three certification levels, and to find upcoming classes.

What You’ll Experience Working With Us
Our approach to teaching Reiki is deeply experiential, intuitive, embodiment-based, and rooted in the Japanese origins of this practice. The history of Reiki is steeped in mystery, as it's true meaning and purpose were cloaked at its creation, and then cloaked again during its fascinating and unlikely pathway to the West. We honor and explore this twice-cloaked history, believing that the deep potential of this healing art can only be realized when its true purpose is known and honored. Our teaching draws heavily on the deep roots of Reiki in Japanese Buddhism, Shintoism, and martial arts systems, and provide a solid grounding and certification for practicing the system of Reiki for self and others.
Reiki classes can be taken one of two ways:
Public Classes: Through one of our regularly scheduled public classes (see here for upcoming dates),
Private Classes: Or scheduled privately for one or more people. A private class is particularly valuable for an individual who wishes a customized experience, or for a small group who wish to experience the training intimately together. We’ve crafted customized Reiki class experiences for pairs of sisters, groups of friends, and colleagues in a work setting. These experiences are delightful in the unique and intimate spaces co-created with such groups. NOTE: The cost of a private class is the same as public classes when a group of 3 or more people schedule together. For individuals or pairs of people, there is a $50 custom fee added to the class price.
