Shamanism is the oldest spiritual tradition known to humankind and continues to be relevant to our contemporary world. For tens of thousands of years, shamans have developed and used their technologies (knowledge, skills, methods) for shifting consciousness and accessing the spirit realms for guidance, healing and transformation. These ancient technologies can be combined with modern Transpersonal Psychology to help us better understand and facilitate the healing of modern illnesses, alienation, disempowerment, dispiritedness, disharmony, and dysfunction.
In this course, we will cover topics such as shamanic journeying, non-ordinary states of consciousness, the existence of Spirits, shamanic views of illness and healing practices, the shadow side of Shamanism, research on Shamanism, and transformational ritual practices.
There is an experiential component that consists of several Shamanic Journey Practice Webinars to learn and become competent in the practice of shamanic journeying. The intention is to offer an opportunity to engage with and embody ancient indigenous earth-based wisdom and practices and to integrate this understanding into your everyday personal and professional lives.
There are no formal entry requirements to join this course. Come and study purely for personal interest and enrichment … and get the same level access as our postgraduate students who will be studying alongside you!

“Alef Trust’s Transpersonal Coaching Psychology Certificate course dramatically propelled my transformative journey, both spiritually and professionally. I will always be grateful for the vast amount of resources it put at my disposal, the thorough training, and the supportive collegial community.”
“I continue to have deep gratitude for what the Transpersonal Coaching Certificate course experience has offered us. Many important insights have been coming to me during our integrated practice, and we are blessed to have a beautiful community of peers. This program has had a catalytic impact on my pursuit for personal transformation and spiritual awareness. Deepening my understanding of transpersonal approaches has also contributed to a new level of embodied creativity in my screenwriting, filmmaking, curriculum design and teaching. I am constantly inspired through accessing Open Awareness.”
“I am excited, humbled, and feel like this program has given me exactly what I have wanted to learn and create for this next chapter of my life. I am very grateful.”
“This course has given me a new perspective on life and the tools to be of service to others. Jevon Dangeli made himself available to his students at all times. I felt completely, positively, supported and guided.”
“A year ago I wasn’t a transpersonal coach, but now I am. And that’s not just a piece of paper saying I am one, but an embodied realisation that I am a coach. The year for me has been about growing into a role and developing both skills and confidence along the way. While it feels like a significant shift from student to professional as we embark on our careers as transpersonal coaches, when I check in to notice how it feels in my deeper Self, I notice an alignment, a ‘rightness’. So, it feels more like a “next small step” as we would say, rather than a giant leap. That for me is the biggest testament to the course. Go for it!”
“The depth and knowledge of the teachers at Alef Trust allowed for a truly authentic learning experience. The awareness and techniques I developed during the course bring light and growth to every encounter, enriching my life and the life of my clients in profound and meaningful ways.”
“Thank you Jevon and Hennie. Your depth of wisdom, trust and values have been magic. The Transpersonal Coaching Psychology course has deepened my connection, trust and inner wisdom to integrate into my day to day life. The course has been a transformative journey for me and offering this to clients has been a win, win, win process. I am excited to take everything I have learnt forward and trust the unfolding of my own path.”
“I am very grateful that life took me in the direction of the TCP course with its rich content and inquiry-based approach.
I valued the way in which each module was built skillfully upon each other. I appreciated the focus as we entered into peer to peer coaching, in first developing an integral practice in support of growing maturity of presence, to be able to hold space for another, and also, before fully exploring coaching models, the focus was oriented towards being fully present to the other in the co-creative coaching space. Only after experiencing and establishing rapport and the flow of a session, the structure was introduced with the lightest of touches so that the emphasis in a session moves from flow to structure in an organic client-centred way.
An integral practice has served to deepen and support an already established mindfulness practice. The course has created a core understanding of the transpersonal perspective which has served to enrich the inquiry process in mindfulness group work I do with adults and children and I’m enjoying the next steps of being in service to others in a coaching capacity.”
“This course has given me the knowledge and confidence to facilitate powerful transformation in people’s lives. It is truly a blessing to have Jevon Dangeli as a teacher, supervisor and mentor!”
“I had wanted to study transpersonal coaching psychology for a while and I must say it was a real gift to learn it with Jevon Dängeli and Hennie Geldenhuys (the tutors) who are so knowledgeable and passionate, and always present to help. Methods are very organic and effective and I am amazed at the results I got with clients. I’m looking forward to exploring this with more and more clients and I recommend this course to anyone interested in transpersonal coaching psychology. Thank you Jevon and Hennie!”
“The transpersonal coaching (TC) course was very cleverly designed as it chaperoned us naturally, effectively and inspiringly into the depth of understanding and skilfulness in TC. Not only did this course give me the tools, understanding and confidence I needed to be an impactful coach, but the inner journey was quite personally transformative. I experienced deep and lasting shifts in myself and in my life. I can’t recommend this course enough – highly professional, well organized, rich with information, ample community and faculty support, robust curriculum and potency in impact.”
“I’m so grateful Jevon was my teacher at the Transpersonal Coaching course. He encouraged me to pursue my own methodology, always showing an enthusiastic, warm and supportive response towards my personal approach. Jevon has a unique style of teaching, he brings his full presence to the classes and transmits his knowledge with high clarity and simplicity, which is very helpful to get to the essence of the method he has created.”
“The Transpersonal Coaching course played a pivotal part in my journey of self-development. Through the course, I became more aware of my authentic self, which in turn helped me overcome the lack of purpose I was experiencing at work. The practical focus of the course really helped prepare me for real-life coaching. I learned invaluable skills that I can use to support my clients, and also skills I can use on my continued journey of self-inquiry. I would recommend this course not only to those who wish to coach but anyone who wants to connect more deeply with themselves and others.”
“I have felt supported, held and encouraged by Jevon. At every opportunity he has made himself available for feedback and further questions. This journey has in some way for me pulled together all previous learnings and study to an integrated sacred wholeness. It’s not an idea or theory of possible wholeness, it’s a deeply felt sense of wholeness. I am deeply grateful to Jevon and to Alef Trust for providing this opportunity.”
“This is what I have been waiting for! The transpersonal coaching course exceeded my expectations. It has inspired me to add this approach to my inner work and path of service. This course has expanded my heart vision through applied transformative sciences and the integration of what serving the life journey of others truly means.”
“A unique journey that has allowed me to experience alternative ways to discover my own SELF, opening out a world of options in my life path in a multitude of realms; and extending it to walk aside others in the discovery of their own self-realization path, in a distinctive growth-symbiosis.”
“Thank you so very much for leading us through such an amazing course. For me, it has been life changing and has come at the right time in my life when I was in a process of spiritually waking up and this has propelled me into the next phase and I am very grateful to you for enabling that through transpersonal coaching. This course has given me the confidence I lacked to make changes in my life and now I am ready to share that learning with more people. Thank you.’
