Learn harmonising techniques - how to sense and relate to others. Access your emotional intelligence. Navigate the complexities of human and non-human relationships. Acquire the skills of meditation; compassion; resonance; resolving dilemma; and shadow work.

Apprentices tune into the rhythms of Water, refining their ability to sense, relate, and respond with Water's energy in motion -- E-motional Intelligence. Water teaches the art of harmonisation—flowing between interactions, sensing the unspoken, and embracing the unseen. Through this fluid connection, apprentices will develop a heightened awareness of balance, sensitivity, and relational depth, discovering how to embody compassion and resonance in both the tangible and intangible aspects of life.
 
Each session will bring apprentices into a deeply intimate relationship with water, not just as a resource, but as a living guide to balance, presence, and relational flow. Emotions are the oscillations of Water, reflecting the ebb and flow of our inner world. Tears become the body's release, like fresh rain cleansing parched earth. Our clear, still Waters hold the weight of what is unspeakable, quietly resolving distortion into clarity. Water teaches us to cleanse, recharge, and realign our inner states, revealing the body itself as a flowing system—a harmonic hologram of the great Waters of the world. By learning to experience deeply, apprentices will cultivate a profound sensitivity, allowing them to respond to themselves and others with openness, clarity, and compassion.
Through meditation, elemental rituals, and reflections on ancient wisdom, apprentices will learn to resolve dilemmas, engage in shadow work, and strengthen their emotional intelligence—enhancing  their understanding of how Water nourishes and connects all life.
