If you cannot attend a session, you will receive the recordings and still be required to complete assigned homework to qualify for your certificate.
This course is hands-on, requiring active participation. It is designed for you to engage deeply with the work, rather than passively watch recordings.

The course has been amazing on every level and I feel like since starting it, my life seems to be flowing more than ever. I feel that the chod practice helped me to let go of limiting beliefs in general and I believe in myself much more. I am a completely different person than I was 6 months ago. At the beginning of the course it started to become clear that a situation I was in was no longer right for me as I had seen this coming up in journeys and couldn’t get away from it. I had to let the situation go which was hard but it meant that I moved on to somewhere new and straight in to another opportunity for massive growth even though it was really difficult at the time. Once that part was over it became really clear what I had to do next which fitted with what I wanted to do and what made sense but hadn’t felt right up until then because I had to go on a detour first to learn certain lessons.  It also just feels very magical to be on this path with amazing people and when everything has felt difficult and I have been unsettled, it’s been comforting to know that I will be going down to Edinburgh for the course at the end of the month. I would recommend this to anyone who is ready for change in their lives. It might not necessarily be easy but it is 100% worth it and you will grow massively.
