Animal Reiki Teaching in Cork, Ireland offers a unique opportunity to deepen your healing practice while learning alongside horses, dogs, and the natural world at Epona Retreat Centre. This training is rooted in a heartfelt intention to support animals and share the wisdom they bring to human growth, awareness, and transformation.

Designed for those who want to expand their gifts and bring them into their work, the program includes Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and Master Teacher training. Each level builds confidence, practical skill, and a stronger connection to animal and human wellbeing through Reiki, meditation, grounding, and nature-based learning.

LEVEL 1 – Training Days 10am to 4.30pm:

28th February 2026 and 27th June 2026

Usui Reiki is an ancient hands-on healing method rediscovered in Japan. This Level 1 workshop focuses on self-healing and is ideal for animal lovers, pet owners, and anyone wishing to include Animal Reiki in their practice. The training explores the joys, benefits, and differences of offering Reiki to animals, with a focus on pet dogs and horses, as well as an introduction to animal communication through Reiki.

Reiki is a natural healing therapy that supports balance, clears energetic blockages, and encourages harmony in the body and energy system. By working with intention, relaxation, and the language of the herd, participants can develop a softer, more responsive relationship with horses and build a more confident partnership.

Lunch and refreshments are included throughout the day.
