A self paced online course

This course is built to teach you the core principles, skills, and practices of Authentic Relating and Circling.

Included is the core teaching curriculum from our Authentic Relating & Circling level 1 Immersion, while diving deeper into topics and introducing additional material not typically covered due to time constraints.

We strongly recommend attending a live level 1 Immersion, where you can engage and practice with others directly.
