Your traditional Shihankaku, Level 1 Reiki requirements with Arjava
Requirements for further Training
We require everyone to begin with Shoden, regardless of their previous Reiki Training, except for those who have taken Jikiden Reiki Classes previously. This is not out of disrespect, but because the teaching is very different from other schools, and we would like every one of our Reiki students to have the same basic knowledge.
Shihan Kaku Training, 15-23 November 2026
To become a Shihan Kaku, Level 1 teacher, it is required to document at least 150 hours of treatments on at least 25 different clients after at least twelve months of the initial training.
Then the Shoden and Okuden class must be reviewed once, before one can take the Shihan Kaku Training.
