How to Decide which Certification level, which Master Teacher and which class?

Interior Alignment Feng Shui and Space Clearing is based on both ancient Chinese practices and healthy and green  21st century living. Using ancient practices of energy work found all over the world, we create homes and businesses that feel great and feel like spaces for the soul.

Our Licensed Master Teachers use the same curriculum and official IA TRAINING MATERIALS with the latest of information and techniques created by Founder Denise Linn. Each Master Teacher has a unique background, which they bring that richness of experience to every class.

When deciding which certification level is right for you, you might want to consider if you are more drawn to Feng Shui concepts ( arranging the objects in a space, which include colors, sounds, scent, and much more) or space clearing, (using tools and methods to clear the energy of a space). Or you might wish to train in a course that combines BOTH certification levels (called a CPIA course).

Your next step is to determine your teacher and course location. You will want to find the teacher who you really connect with. We suggest you contact several and discuss training options with them. You will also note that there will be a variation in costs of courses. This is due to the variables such as location, if the tuition includes food, lodging, etc. All tuition fees should automatically include all materials you need for the course, and anything you do as a part of the course curriculum (such as field trips or consultation trips). However, food, lodging transportation are all things that could be variables in the class. Please use the calendar to find a group class being offer, but also read the bio’s of our Master Teachers and feel free to contact one directly to determine if they offer private study. (please note that private study is generally more expensive that group training, but it’s best to talk to your chosen teacher about tuition) The Interior Alignment® curriculum for each each course is standard. Please note that each teacher operates their own business, and we encourage students to ask each teacher about their specific business practices and policies.

INTERIOR ALIGNMENT CURRICULUM: What to look for when choosing a certification program: All instructors and programs will follow the same comprehensive standard of coursework, hours of education and instructional quality that are considered integral to the Interior Alignment study experience. Courses may be structured into different formats (retreat settings, series of class dates, distance learning with onsite intensives, or all online offerings, etc) Interior Alignment honors that each individual has different needs and schedules, so various learning options are provided that can meet your schedule and needs. There are several certification levels within Interior Alignment®. It is possible to gain your full certification as a CPIA in several steps or in one longer course. When you are comparing courses, make sure that you are comparing the same course certification level.
