Usui Reiki Level 1 (Shoden) — Dundalk

Usui 1 Dundalk

Usui Reiki Level 1 (Shoden) — Dundalk

Welcome to usui-1-dundalk—a clear, confident starting point for your Reiki journey. This in-person training is designed for thoughtful beginners who want solid foundations, real hands-on practice, and a teacher who blends tradition with modern, trauma-aware pedagogy. I’m Marta, practitioner, teacher and sound healing specialist. My approach is calm, structured and evidence-informed—rooted in the original Usui system, enriched with breathwork, gentle movement and mindful grounding so you feel safe, supported and ready to practise from day one.


Why learn with me, Marta?

  • Clear lineage & standards: I teach classical Usui Reiki with transparent lineage, robust ethics, and best practice for hygiene, consent and scope of practice.

  • Small groups, big attention: Groups are intentionally limited so I can observe your hand positions, guide your pacing, and answer your nuanced questions in the moment.

  • Trauma-sensitive teaching: You’ll learn regulation first—simple tools to settle the nervous system, maintain boundaries and keep sessions safe for you and your loved ones.

  • Integrated sound healing: Where appropriate, I demonstrate how gentle sound (e.g., bowls, chimes) can support relaxation without overwhelming sensitive clients.

  • Aftercare that actually helps: You receive structured self-practice plans, debrief time after attunement, Q&A follow-ups, and access to practice circles so your skills keep growing.


What you’ll learn

  • The story and principles of Usui Reiki (and how to live them—simply and practically).

  • Level 1 attunement (Shoden) delivered with clear preparation and aftercare.

  • Effective hand positions for self-treatment and seated/lying treatments for friends and family.

  • Grounding, cleansing and energetic boundaries you can rely on.

  • Session structure, pacing, record-keeping basics and safety do’s & don’ts for home practice.

  • How to build a consistent 21-day integration routine that fits real life.

What’s included

  • One full day (or two half-days) of guided tuition in Dundalk.

  • Printed manual, digital notes and lifetime access to my student update emails.

  • Certificate of completion: Usui Reiki Level 1 (Shoden).

  • Post-course mentoring options and community practice events.


Outcomes you can expect

By the end of usui-1-dundalk you’ll confidently give a full, restorative self-treatment and a simple, safe treatment for loved ones. You’ll understand how to pace a session, what to say (and not say), and how to record outcomes ethically. Most importantly, you’ll leave with a sustainable routine that nurtures your own wellbeing.


Who this is for

Complete beginners, sensitive learners who value calm teaching, and anyone seeking proven tools for relaxation, sleep support and everyday resilience. No previous experience is required—just curiosity and kindness.

Why I’m the best choice for your Reiki course

Students choose me for the combination of clarity, care and craft. I translate tradition into practical steps, I’m meticulous about safety, and I teach you how to listen—to your body, to your client, and to the quiet intelligence of Reiki. You won’t just “get attuned”; you’ll understand what to do, why it works, and how to keep growing. My background in sound therapy, ongoing supervision, and commitment to reflective practice mean you’re learning with a teacher who keeps learning too.
