The ISEE Sacred Sexuality Instructor Training program is a return to ISEE's roots. ISEE was born with the idea of wedding the principles of body-mind with solid academics. Your personal growth is as important to us as your academic growth and your professional success, and it shows in our graduates, who are sought after for their superior training and integrity. The program's goals are to aid you in creating or improving your own products such as retreats or classes. You will be offered resources such as workbooks, references, and the larger ISEE community network as colleagues. The program is a hybrid of online classes, coaching, and an in-person retreat.
This is an exclusive, intimate instructor training program for those who wish to teach Sacred Sexuality. SSIT is limited to 15 participants. Participants will attend several recorded classes online, experience a 5-day retreat in person, and receive 6 coaching sessions from 3 well-known and respected instructor-practitioners (see below).
