Grof Transpersonal Training® in Europe

GTT is a program for experiencing and studying Holotropic Breathwork™ and the transpersonal perspective. It is a two-track program that can be used either to become a certified practitioner or simply to experience this practice in a more in-depth format.

Grof Transpersonal Training® in Europe -New Website with information is coming soon.

The certification program offers a high degree of flexibility to cater to individual preferences. There are five-and-a-half-day modules that you can participate in, often available in pairs, allowing you to choose one or both modules. These modules are available throughout the year and across three continents, enabling you to attend within your own region or even travel to other regions if you prefer. The option to attend multiple or just a few modules is available, aligning with the core principle of Holotropic Breathwork® (HB) that your inner wisdom guides your path.For individuals aspiring for certification, there are two distinct paths: 

Educational and Practitioner

Both pathways mandate attendance at seven modules and a two-week closing intensive. As part of the training, you'll engage in ten hours of consultation with a certified practitioner and participate in ten HB workshops, which also encompass those completed prior to initiating the training, involving both breathing sessions and the role of a "sitter." In addition, those pursuing Practitioner certification have the opportunity to become independent workshop leaders. However, this requires a commitment to apprentice at least four times at workshops led by previously certified practitioners prior to leading your own groups. It's important to note that Practitioner certification isn't guaranteed and rests with the discretion of the GTT core facilitator team. For those on the practitioner track, chances to practice as "floaters" at modules and to apprentice at workshops and modules are available. 

The term "floating" refers to the practice where facilitators or those in training move around the room during a Holotropic Breathwork® session. This immersive learning experience allows individuals to gain valuable insights into facilitating sessions and honing their skills.

In summary, the certification program's adaptable structure accommodates different preferences, with modules held across the globe. There are distinct tracks for certification, involving module attendance, consultation hours, and active participation in workshops. Practitioner certification entails additional apprenticeship and practical experience, all guided by the GTT core facilitator team.

Continued Professional Development (CPD)

Continued Professional Development (CPD) is essential in upholding the highest standards of Holotropic Breathwork® (HB) practice for those guiding others in this modality. Additionally, CPD plays a significant role in establishing HB as a credible and well-grounded contemporary psycho-spiritual practice.

CPD for HB practitioners involves several important elements. First, practitioners are encouraged to engage in full Holotropic Breathwork® sessions regularly, participating in at least two sessions per year. This consistent, firsthand involvement helps practitioners maintain a deep connection to the process, enabling them to offer genuine and effective guidance to their clients.

Maintaining connections with the HB community and the training program is another vital part of CPD. Practitioners are advised to attend a six-day event at least once every three years, keeping them updated on the latest developments, insights, and techniques. This fosters a sense of community and shared learning among practitioners.

Additionally, practitioners are encouraged to keep a daily personal practice, which supports their own sources of inspiration and inner wisdom. This practice not only strengthens the practitioner’s journey but also enhances their capacity to guide others through the transformative process of Holotropic Breathwork®.

In summary, CPD is a cornerstone in preserving the integrity and efficacy of Holotropic Breathwork® practice. This commitment to personal experience, community involvement, and ongoing learning ensures that practitioners remain well-equipped to facilitate meaningful and impactful sessions for those seeking the benefits of HB.
