How many levels can I take consecutively?
The answer is – it is totally up to you!
Taking individual levels is desirable as it gives students time to practice the coursework from each individual level between classes. However; many of our students find that with life, work, travel time and busy schedules it is most convenient to take Levels 1-3 all together.
The classes are taught “hands-on” style, so plenty of giving and receiving are offered during the 6 days of classes. The coursework required to apply for certification can be completed at home at your own pace.
Will I receive a certificate after completing the Level 1 class?
The Atma Buti® Sound & Vibrational School is regulated by the State of Colorado Department of Higher Education and is a board-approved provider of CEU’s for the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Bodywork (NCBTMB).
Our certification program, requires that students take levels 1-3, complete and submit the required coursework, and then return to Boulder, CO for a Practicum of assessment of one’s skills. See the guidelines page of this website for more information.
After Level 1, a student may, upon request, receive an “hours of completion” certificate that will state the numbers of hours and levels completed in the Atma Buti® course of study. This can be submitted to the NCBTMB for CEU credit hours.
Can I take Level 2 without taking Level 1?
No, courses at the Atma Buti® Sound & Vibrational School are required to be taken in sequential order.
When can I take the Level 4 class?
Level 4 may be taken after completing Levels 1-3 of your coursework studies at Atma Buti®.
