Any animal lover looking to deepen their connection to animals and enhance their ability to care for and communicate with these animals.

•Pet owners who want to holistically support the needs of their pets.

•Anyone who works with animals: Dog walkers, competitive animal trainers, horse-riders, groomers, farmers, breeders, veterinary professionals, Rescue workers and volunteer staff at shelters and kennels, therapy animal workers.

•Reiki professionals looking to expand their Reiki knowledge and the breath of their professional services in their Reiki business.

•Animal Reiki Practitioners who are looking to become an Animal Reiki Master Teacher, and top up their knowledge and expertise. 

We will teach you all you need to know about Reiki and how to work with animal clients. An important part of this for us, is understanding that the session is a partnership between you and the animal – you are there as a channel for Reiki energy, and the animal should have complete control over how the session progresses. Whilst you need to learn the basic framework of an Animal Reiki treatment, we believe that every animal Reiki session is unique and should be tailored to the needs of the animal, you should be respectful of their comfort and carefully respond to their reactions and behavioural changes throughout the session, listening to your own intuition to guide you through. As well as adopting a very respectful approach to this work with our animal companions, we also prioritise the safety of our students and make sure we give you the guidance you need to feel safe, comfortable and confident working around animals of all shapes and sizes - both wild and domestic. 

We give you the tools and development space to evolve your intuition, so you can connect with animals on a deeper level and respond to their needs.

Yes you can - in fact learning online has become the most popular ways to study and master Reiki. You can learn at your own pace, download the materials you need, and there is no rush or need to fight for the attention of the tutor. You get all the time you need to review the course and ask questions as you work your way through the course. Even Dr Usui - the founder of Reiki trained himself without a workshop! 

We believe it would be unfair to ask an animal to stay around all day working with students they are not familiar with so we  think this is a great way to learn about using energy healing with animals. 

Much has been written about distant attunements in Reiki. In our experience, and more importantly in the experience of the many students who have completed our Reiki home study courses and received distant attunements from us, have confirmed that distant attunements are just as effective as attunements received in person during a workshop or therapy session. We provide this service because we believe that Reiki should be available to everyone,  without the need to attend expensive and often difficult to get to live workshops and lengthy training programmes.

Absolutely! Your will receive a Distant Attunement to Usui Reiki Master Teacher Level by 2 experienced Reiki Masters. In fact many of our Animal Reiki students are already Reiki Practitioners and have been previously attuned to Reiki. There is no harm in having an energy top-up or a re-attunement and many of our students have told us just how much they enjoyed the distant attunement - often a family pet will approach them and join in the healing session - it's quite beautiful!

Lots of our students come to train with us simply because they felt overwhelmed at the live workshops they had previously attended and go on to tell us that they didn't get the time or the information they needed in their original training, and they were recommended to our programme as it is so comprehensive and easy to follow.

We welcome students at all levels of experience and even if you are simply looking for a refresher or are just interested in learning more about Animal Reiki, this course will cover all the topics you need. 

Reiki is an ancient and natural form of energy healing that is practised by numerous practitioners around the world in order to help people and animals relax and balance the energy systems in their body, in order to naturally boost their own innate healing abilities. It is very important to note that the Energy healing and medicine are two very different disciplines. Reiki should always only be used in conjunction with veterinary medicine not in place of veterinary medicine or advice. Practitioners of Reiki do not diagnose medical conditions nor do they prescribe, perform medical treatment, or interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional.

You should always seek medical advice from a qualified vet or medical practitioner if you believe an animal to be unwell. 

Absolutely! We have students in more than 150 countries including the US, Canada, UK, Italy, Spain, Denmark, Australia and more. As long as you can understand English and have an internet connection, you can access the course!
