Is there any support after I have become certified
Yes there are monthly ‘womb room’ study groups where you can bring your questions, cases, circle and ceremony issues.
Can I take one module per year?
Yes, if you want to. The course starts every January, so you can take 1 module per year if you wish. Or you can take more depending on what suits your circumstances. Each module is a pre-requisite for the next, so you will have to do each one in order to progress to certification.
Are there prerequisites for the training?
It is recommended that you are already a counsellor, bodyworker, circle facilitator, therapist, healer, bodyworker, yoga teacher or coach.

How long do I have to complete the case studies for certification?
3 months. However, if you need longer, that’s ok, we can arrange with you to do that.
Can I do this if I'm pregnant
You can but you can’t do some practices and you won’t be tracking your cycle, you’ll be connecting with your baby.
How often does the training run?
Once per year, starting January.
Is this suitable if I'm in menopause?
We do talk about the cycle alot, so you may feel that’s not for you. If you are in menopause then get in touch by email and let us know who you want to work with in your communities and what you’d like to do and we can let you know if it’s going to meet your requirements.
