A strong sense of safety, allowing room to learn and show up at my pace. From the beginning there was a real sense that this really works in a way it was hard to explain just cognitively.

The biggest attraction was seeing the change in people who had done the Hakomi training before me - they were more centred, more confident, more themselves. This was what I wanted for myself, too.
- S.T. Psychotherapist.There's no question that the Hakomi training is the best psychotherapy training I've ever done.
The Hakomi trainers, without exception, embody and constantly demonstrate the Hakomi principle of loving presence towards all the students they train which powerfully facilitates the students' learning of the method.
- J.K. Psychotherapist.
Arriving to the world of Hakomi was like arriving in a somehow familiar place.
It was a long way from the known world of academia, research, and teaching and outside my realms of professional experience, but curiously natural as the principles connected with something personal, something deeper, which drew me in.
- R.H. Psychotherapist.
Its experiential approach has been very nourishing, and as someone who has spent many years studying, it has been wonderful to engage in a learning process that did not involve the usual academic processes.
I could relax into the learning, and learn without great effort or strain. I now have a deep appreciation for the wisdom inherent in such experiential teaching.

Hakomi offers comprehensive professional trainings in the Hakomi Method. Our goal is to turn out therapists who are as dedicated to fully understanding their own process as they are to the understanding of others.
Applications are now invited for the next Sydney three–year Hakomi Professional Training, to begin in early 2011.
Each Hakomi Training teaches the entire curriculum of the Hakomi Method, as outlined by the Educational Board of the Hakomi Institute, a non-profit educational organisation based in Boulder, Colorado.
