The LE courses are designed to offer participants a structured learning environment that covers language, context for the exercises that will be practiced during the course, and real time partner practice. The course format follows this process to create an understanding of the principles and language used in the model and the opportunity to experience and “road test” the exercises in real time during the course. Debriefing and open Q&A are built into all courses.
Your Introduction starts Here
This course offers participants an introduction to LE, language, practices and principles. Through simple physical exercises that apply light pressure, we are able to recognize the patterns that arise when we are in intense situations. Once we are familiar with our pattern, we apply centering practices to help us shift to a more creative, compassionate and skillful state. Working in pairs, we chunk down learning exercises to create a lasting imprint in the body. Individual debrief and group discussions create a dynamic learning container.

Building on the foundation of the Fundamentals Level 1, the Intermediate Level 2 course offers participants an opportunity to deepen their awareness and explore their patterns and centering practice in a variety of situations. A clearer understanding of the language and principals of the LE model allows for greater insights into the ways stressors affect the body. Discover how muscle groups tighten or extend releasing chemicals that change the way your mind thinks and the way you speak.
Deepen your learning Here
Tiphani Palmer is the lead instructor for all retreats. Retreats are an opportunity to come together with the community for more intensive practice of the LE work. Living together, the group will take a deep dive using the container of self-inquiry and group support. The retreat intensive involves sitting meditation and LE partner exercises. Tiphani will give guided meditation instruction. Paired LE exercises are often practiced in silence with a 25 minute meditation before group discussions. You must have completed a Level 1 course before attending a retreat.
