Nancy Bunt
I was introduced to Reiki as a young girl.  My mother had received training in Reiki first and second degree, and I remember feeling very intrigued and receptive to it.  Something about Reiki seemed so natural to me - like I had always known about it and was being given a reminder.  When I reached my early 20's I began to feel a strong calling to become a practitioner myself and to bring the practice more fully in to my own life.  I then began my training and relationship with Reiki, which I know will continue to grow and develop for the rest of my life.  It's an honor and a blessing to have had Reiki in my life since I was very young, and I consider it a privilege to share Reiki with all who come to me.
Usui System of Natural Healing (Usui Shiki Ryoho)

Within the Usui System of Reiki practice there are three degrees or levels of training; each building on the other and each outlining a unique, specific scope of practice.  However, the daily hands-on self-treatment practice taught in Reiki First Degree provides the foundation for all levels of training.

Becoming attuned to Reiki is a wonderful life changing process.  The only pre-requisite to learning Reiki is an open heart and a desire to grow and learn.  Anyone who desires to learn Reiki can learn it and share it with the people and pets in their life.  Once you are attuned to Reiki by a qualified Reiki Master it will be with you always for the rest of your life.  Reiki can inspire you with ideas, insights, and understandings; comfort you when you are in pain or emotional distress; support your natural healing processes; reduce the stress response; and give you an outlet to share love and healing.

Whether your desire is to practice Reiki for yourself or on others, learning Reiki is not an intellectual process.  Reiki is an empowered practice and development takes time and practice.  Give yourself the time and space to integrate emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually what has been initiated within each degree level.  The programs at A Reiki Life Academy® are structured the way they are in order to provide you with the foundation and depth necessary to carry the practice of Reiki confidently into your own life.

Reiki First Degree

The 3-month (32 hour) Reiki First Degree program will prepare you for a daily self-practice to support your own healing and growth, and to confidently give treatment to family, friends, and pets.  Reiki First Degree is all about the development of your relationship with the energy and becoming grounded in your hands-on practice.  The Reiki principles, history, and treatment protocols, are some of the things covered in this program.  

This program is taught in the following format:
  • Weekend Intensive 9:30 am - 6:00 pm both days
  • 3 additional group classes (on Saturdays) 3 weeks apart after the weekend intensive.  Each of these classes is from 9:30 am - 1:00 pm. 
  • Practical sessions provide one-on-one attention for skill development and support the individual student's goals and needs.  These sessions provide an additional 4-6 hours of instruction and experience.

Reiki Second Degree

​Prerequisite: Usui Reiki First Degree training and a minimum of -6-8 months of daily self-treatment and informal practice. (Preferably 1-yr or more)
If your Usui Reiki First Degree training was NOT taken through A Reiki Life Academy®,  please contact Nancy prior to applying for this program.

The 3-month (32 hour) Reiki Second Degree program helps you to bring more focus and direction to your Reiki practice.  There is a step up in energy at this level.  You will be developing a relationship with the energies of the Reiki symbols, learning distance healing practice, and elevating your treatment practice to a new level.

Reiki Second Degree is another wonderful and valuable journey you will cherish for the rest of your life.  This level is for those who feel called to make a greater commitment to themselves and their Reiki practice.  It is recommended that you increase your self-treatment practice from 30 minutes a day to 1-hour a day at this level.

This program is taught in the following format:
  • Weekend Intensive 9:30 am - 6:00 pm both days
  • 3 additional group classes (on Saturdays) 3 weeks apart after the weekend intensive.  Each of these classes is from 9:30 am - 1:00 pm.

Private Instruction

​Private instruction is also offered for First & Second degree levels and includes all elements of the small group program, however the completely one-on-one format allows me to tailor the experience even more to meet your specific needs and goals.  Generally private instruction is set up with four weekly 2-3 hour appointments, and three additional appointments lasting one and half to three hours each.  In addition, weekly email and/or phone communications keep you clear and focused on the unfolding process and development.  This format is flexible and may be structured differently depending on the students schedule and needs.

Contact Nancy if you're interested in learning Reiki through this one-on-one format.

Tuition for Private Reiki Instruction: $1,200
Consulting Services

In addition to the in-person Reiki degree trainings, I offer one-on-one consulting both in-person and via Skype, FaceTime, zoom, or over the phone.  All consulting appointments may be set up through the online booking.  

Consulting is often used for Reiki review and professional development, and is for individuals that have already completed Reiki training in any degree level and through any school of practice.  This is a great way to receive guidance, review, and support tailored to suit your needs and goals from an experienced and accomplished Reiki practitioner and teacher..

Reiki Master

The third level of training within the Usui System of Reiki is Reiki Master or the teacher level.  Traditionally, the Reiki Master level of training was by invitation only and done through an extended apprenticeship with a qualified Reiki Master.  The Master initiation is for those who have a deep calling and know they wish to dedicate their lives to teaching Reiki and in service to others.  Not only is more knowledge past on to the student at this level, but also the initiation process and the disciplined practice and control of energy within the body.  Only Reiki Masters can teach Reiki to others.

This level of training is offered at A Reiki Life Academy® in a one year apprenticeship program.  Completion of the Professional Practitioner Program, along with 8-10 years of experience is required, and there is an initial review period to determine the readiness of the master student candidate.  Acceptance is not guaranteed.  Please contact Nancy Bunt to discuss this level of training.

Apprenticeship Tuition: $10,000
