“To make Hakomi effective a practitioner must be more than just someone who knows a method. The practitioner must be someone whose very presence can be healing, a person who has all the qualities needed to support emotional healing in another.” – Ron Kurtz

SCHEDULE:
The Essence of The Hakomi Method
We learn the simple things and we practice them to perfection
– Friday 5:00 – 7:30 pm
– Saturday and Sunday 10:00 am – 5:30 pm
“Art is the elimination of unnecessary” – Picasso
Limited to 20 student/participants
The hours from this immersion apply towards Certification. (A total of 24 days of level one training are required for certification.) See more about certification.
We will gradually deepen into the fundamental practices that hold the method.
- Loving Presence: Emerges as a way of being and gives a tone to everything we do. It is natural, enjoyable, respectful, non-hierarchical, and mutually nourishing.
- Quieting the Mind: Lowering the noise of the mind to allow for more awareness of what is occurring to allow the practice of mindfulness to study ourselves
- Non-Verbal Awareness: Since 90% of emotional information is communicated non-verbally, we use the body behavior as indicators for bringing beliefs safely into awareness, where they can be experienced, evaluated and changed in supportive, beneficial and productive ways.
- Nourishing Communication: An invitation to explore the intent and quality of our communication and the ways in which we offer and receive emotional nourishment.
Practice sessions will be available in the second half. We will be sharing some of Ron’s latest material.

Testimonials
“What I appreciate most about Adama is not his understanding of Ron’s therapeutic method, but his ability to offer it in a fresh way through their own sensibilities and personal style. I experience him as living a embodiment of Hakomi and have gained a way of being with others that is so much more than intellectual understanding.”
“Adama is a incredible teacher and facilitator. The group created an incredibly safe container for expressing some of the deepest parts of me.“
“Adama powerfully models loving presence that is creative, spontaneous, and real. They follow the energy of the group and provide the spaciousness and encouragement for the loving context for truly deep healing connections to unfold and for the undeniable cultivation of each participant’s self-knowing and self-love.”
“With grace and ease, Adama holds space to allow what wants to emerge, to come forth and be healed. His ‘doing’ is in the ‘not-doing’. “
