The care and attention that comes with this course is amazing. The surroundings and teaching are first class and I can't wait to go back for the second course. Friendly atmosphere, professional service but relaxed and calming. I enjoyed the whole day including the great conversations. You are made to feel completely welcome and can just be yourself. You come away with complete confidence and feeling great. There is also great support available moving forward. Can't rate this course highly enough.

I attended Reiki 2 course with Vicky and it was a lovely experience. The venue was serene, comfortable and Vicky made sure every one in the small group was able to share their experiences with each other. She guided us to be receptive to the course and attunement as well as encouraged us to dive into the practice professionally. Thank you Vicky and God bless.

I attended Vicky's Reiki 1 workshop just yesterday.Vicky provides a really safe and space to learn and grow. We were held in a bubble of (Reiki) and light energy all day - and I can still feel it. I now feel like I have a fantastic tool to set boundaries in my life and coaching work, so that my energy is optimised! Also for supporting myself and others and staying positive and purposeful as we navigate life's challenges. I would highly recommend Vicky, The Reiki school and Reiki as a method to self nurture - and bring positivity into your life. Thank you :)

Completed Reiki 1 and 2 with Vicky, she is a wonderfully warm and compassionate teacher and keeps her teaching style very clean and authentic to her lineage. Really enjoyed learning from her and met some amazing likeminded people during the course.

Already 1 week since I have attended my level 1 reiki course with Vicky but the extraordinary feeling I had during and after the course still accompany me. Let's go for order, the place was for me special , a kind of sanctuary of good energy that I defined as a big bubble of energy with Vicky's pulsing heart from inside. She is a kind of natural gentle soul who will make you feel so relaxed that you will no longer be able to hide your buried emotions. I didn't need to wait for the end of the course or the training because from the moment I entered (and was welcomed with a birthday cake and a small but enormous gift that touched my heart), my journey began to change. This whole week has been a succession of small milestones. Maybe not everyone will experience it the same way, but for me it was... I'm speechless and so far I am craving for more. I was also lucky because I have met some really nice people helped with the process. Thanks

I attended Vicky’s class for Reiki 1 and what a wonderful day it was. Vicky is so welcoming, supportive and positive I am so glad I chose to learn with her. It was a small personal class with some wonderful like minded people and you come away with so much knowledge and full of positive energy. Thank you so much Vicky, I will be keeping an eye out for dates I can attend for the next course xx

I first trained in Reiki with Vicky two years ago and really enjoyed the experience. I completed Reiki 1 and Reiki 2, but didn’t practise at the time due to personal circumstances. Now I’ve come back, and I’m really glad Vicky welcomed me again. It was such a meaningful experience. She is warm, gentle, supportive, and truly accepting. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing, filled with positive energy. I also met some lovely people

I recently completed my Reiki I on June the 11th and i’m so glad that I chose the Reiki School. Vicky is an amazing teacher, she makes you feel welcome and at ease right from the beginning, it was like I was spending the day with friends in a relaxing and peaceful environment. I learnt so much from Vicky and more than just about Reiki. I took so much away from the day and things that I have been able to apply to everyday life to begin my healing journey. If you are thinking about booking a course with the Reiki School, do it, you won’t regret it as it’s such an amazing experience. Thank you Vicky😊🙏🏻(Jenny G)

I recently completed the Reiki I and II courses with Vicky and am so happy that I chose to learn with The Reiki School. As soon as I arrived, Vicky was welcoming and genuine and I felt completely at ease to be myself. By creating this welcoming environment for everyone, you could tell that the other participants were equally at ease so it felt a really supportive environment where it was ok to ask any question. Vicky is both engaging and compassionate and I left the course feeling empowered to begin my self-healing journey and go on to heal others. The course overall has been so much more than I could have hoped for and I highly recommend Vicky to anyone interested in exploring Reiki. Her passion and expertise shine through in every aspect of her teaching. Thank you Vicky.

Vicky has such wonderful warmth and positive energy - and her serene and beautiful home (which you’ll be warmly welcomed into) is the perfect place in which to learn Reiki. Vicky’s a true Reiki expert - in the philosophy, the techniques, and the many practical applications in daily life - as well as a clear and compelling teacher. I didn’t want to miss a thing! Her one-day course is followed up with daily emails to consolidate the learnings which is super helpful. I was lucky enough to take the course with two amazing people who I felt bonded with immediately and will certainly stay in touch with. I highly recommend Vicky and the course - I plan to do Reiki II with her as soon as I’m ready.

I was privileged to attend the Reiki I course yesterday with Vicky, who has created such a warm, welcoming environment: I immediately felt at ease, able to share and communicate openly with her and the others in our small group. Vicky is a fantastically reassuring teacher who welcomes all questions, emotions, self-doubts etc that come up during the day - nothing is off the table. Attunement was a powerful experience and I am excited to already be putting the self-healing into practice, with a view to booking in for Reiki II asap!

I recently completed Reiki I and II with Vicky. Vicky is an incredibly warm and engaging teacher. Her enthusiasm for Reiki is contagious, and she created a calm and relaxing environment in which to learn and ask questions. Her course manuals have been extremely useful following the two days - I have learnt so much and enjoyed it immensely. I hope to come back soon to take my Reiki Practitioner course.

I was fortunate enough to do both Reiki I and Reiki II with Vicky at The Reiki School. Vicky is the most authentic and loving person and shows up in this way consistently. Her beautiful energy is contagious and the Reiki training on both occasions were top notch. Vicky has created a very safe, calm, positive and nurturing environment within which to learn and importantly, where we could be ourselves and open up to the teachings. I cannot thank her enough for what has been deeply impactful and very beautiful experiences. I definitely plan to do my Reiki Master training with Vicky and The Reiki School when the time is right.

I have just attended the Reiki 1 course run by Vicky. Vicky is truly inspirational and a wonderful teacher who creates a welcoming safe space in which to learn.

I've recently completed my Reiki I course with Vicky and found the whole experience rather incredible. I felt immediately at ease with Vicky and the other attendees and felt safe in the beautiful space she'd created for the course. The learning felt very fluid and natural and I was blown away by her love and passion for what she does and wanting to share that with others. I'll be back soon for my Reiki II as it's been a wonderful experience learning here. Thank-you :-)

The space Vicky has created to teach Reiki is simply magical. I loved Reiki I so much that I very quickly booked onto my Reiki II and it did not disappoint. Vicky radiates pure light and her welcoming nature, makes the space so easy to feel safe to let go and connect to yourself and others.

We successfully completed our Reiki I course today with the wonderful Vicky. She had such a positive energy and lots of time for us. We learned so much in a relaxed and beautiful environment. A very comprehensive and well run course - highly recommended. Thank you also to Jacq who we had the pleasure of spending time with in her beautiful place in Japan. We were lucky enough to have a family reiki day with our 2 younger daughters. Jacq was brilliant with them and was an inspiration to us all. Overall we have got a lot out of our relatively short time in the world of reiki and look forward to our continued reiki journey.

Highly recommended! I have now attended 4 courses with Vicky at The Reiki School this year and have learnt so much. Vicky is such a great teacher. She's really welcoming, kind, passionate and knowledgeable about all things Reiki and is always happy to take the time to support and answer any questions along the way, both on the day and afterwards. Her passion really shines through. All the other attendees I've met on the courses have been simply lovely too and the location is perfect.

I completed my Reiki Masters training with Vicky at this beautiful location. It immediately felt warm and welcoming; meeting Vicky felt like meeting a friend, she has such a lovely open countenance and bubbly personality. There were 3 of us training that day and it really felt magical being in everyone’s presence, beautifully and respectfully managed by Vicky. There was a lot of laughter, tears, sharing and releasing. Vicky is an experienced, knowledgeable and talented Reiki Master Teacher, I found the attunement to be quite emotional and powerful. Something really shifted in me that day and I feel, was quite life changing. A lot of stored, past trauma was let go and the comfort and peace is still with me two months on. Thank you, Vicky. I would highly recommend Vicky if you are looking for a Reiki Master Teacher.

15 March 2024

Yesterday, I completed the Level 1 course at ‘The Reiki School’, and it was an enlightening experience that transformed me from someone who knew the basics of Reiki into an ardent believer in the power of this healing practice. Despite having some prior knowledge I picked up by reading in my teenage years, what I discovered during this course was profound, convincing me that there are dimensions of wellness and healing that current science has yet to fully grasp. Understanding the direct line from Sensei Mikao Usui to our present masters not only deepened my appreciation for this healing practice but also instilled a profound sense of connection to the roots and traditions of Reiki. It’s reassuring to know that the teachings I’ve received are closely tied to the original principles and methods. This lineage ensures the authenticity and integrity of the practice, which, in my opinion, greatly enhances the credibility and trustworthiness of the training provided. The course led me to experience an immense calming of both mind and body, unlike anything I’ve felt before. It was as if I could physically feel the energy radiating from the palms of my hands, a sensation both surreal and deeply grounding. A significant part of this transformative experience can be attributed to our master, Vicky. She was an exceptional teacher who navigated us through the concepts and techniques of Reiki with grace, support, and encouragement. Her ability to explain complex ideas in an accessible manner was remarkable, making every aspect of the course engaging and informative. For anyone curious about the world of Reiki or looking to deepen their understanding and practice, I wholeheartedly recommend ‘The Reiki School’ and Vicky. Both this course and ‘The Reiki School’ are a gateway to not just learning a healing technique, but also to exploring the deeper connections within ourselves and the universe around us.

I completed my Reiki Level 2 and Animal Reiki courses at The Reiki School with the wonderful Vicky. The first time I arrived I immediately felt at home and knew this was a special place. There were many places local to me I could have taken my further training at but something was calling me to look elsewhere and that’s when I stumbled across The Reiki School searching online and just had a good feeling. My gut was right as this was absolutely where I needed to be to continue this journey. Vicky is such a special human, I’ve learnt so much and grown so much and I’m so so excited to return in March to complete my Reiki Master Practitioner training. I have a feeling I’ll be returning here for many years to come as I wouldn’t go anywhere else now for future training. See you in March! :-)
