Join the Next Foundations Training Program

No prior experience is needed to enrol in Part 1 of the Focusing Foundations Training. This course is designed for beginners and will guide you step by step through the principles of Inner Relationship Focusing. If you've already completed Part 1 (or Levels 1 & 2 in the previous format), you can continue with Part 2 to deepen your practice.

While live participation is encouraged for the best learning experience, we understand that life happens. Please plan to attend all classes. You can miss up to two classes in both Part 1 and Part 2 without any issue. If you miss three or more classes in either Part, you'll need to complete a Make-Up & Progress Session (additional fees apply) to stay on track. Weekly Focusing partnerships will help you stay engaged with the practice, even if you miss a class. If you have any concerns about attendance, feel free to reach out.

Unlike traditional mindfulness or meditation, which focus on quieting the mind, Focusing is an active, interactive process of tuning into your body’s felt sense—the key to real change. Instead of ignoring or overriding emotions, it helps you connect with deeper inner knowing, work through emotional blocks, and gain clarity in life.

While not therapy, coaching, or meditation, Focusing shares elements of each, offering a lifelong skill to access deep insight, resolve blocks, and move forward with confidence. This course provides structured guidance, live practice, and a supportive environment to help you integrate Focusing into your daily life.

The course includes live online sessions, guided exercises, discussions, and weekly Focusing partnerships to deepen your practice. Each session builds on the last, helping you develop Focusing skills step by step in a supportive learning environment.

The course is held live on Zoom, allowing for real-time interaction, guided exercises, and small group practice. You’ll receive a private link to join each session and will have access to recordings in case you miss a class.

You’ll need a reliable internet connection, a device with a microphone and camera (computer, tablet, or phone), and the free Zoom app.

Part 2 builds on the skills from Part 1. If you’ve completed Part 1/Level 1 and 2 (from the previous course structure) or an equivalent Focusing course, you may be eligible. If you're unsure, reach out to discuss your experience. Some students find it helpful to retake Part 1 before moving on to Part 2. Revisiting the material allows them to deepen their understanding, refresh their skills, and build confidence in their ability to apply Focusing.
