Originated by Michael Harner and based upon his decades of research and experimentation, this six-week program is the most advanced training in shamanism and shamanic healing offered by The Foundation for Shamanic Studies. Widely considered as unparalleled in the world, the program involves intensive extended training in progressive levels of advanced shamanism, including initiations into rare and little-known practices and principles.

I love my life now. Since I’ve been doing this work I have a deep sense of my purpose on this planet. My life is deep, purposeful, profound and fun! ~Three-Year participant

In this residential program the same group of participants meets 3 times in Bali for twelve days in early July 2024, 2025, and 2026 with practical assignments between meetings. The program is devoted to advancing the participants’ knowledge and practice as far as possible during the three sessions. Enrollment is limited and requires a two-step application/ acceptance procedure. Sessions are held at the gorgeous ocean-side retreat center in Bali; on-site lodging and meals will be arranged after the acceptance procedure. *(This program is primarily new material and does not repeat nor review 2-day course material.Also, the 3-Year is a shamanic practitioner development program of initiations, not a teacher-training program).
