Other CBCT® Courses

Each year, we hold a 4-day CBCT retreat, which is an excellent opportunity for those who have already taken a full CBCT course to deepen their practice and connect with community.  

For participants in the 2025 Teacher Certification Program, this retreat is a required component, and you are automatically enrolled as part of your training cohort—no additional registration is needed. 

Registration is now open for the Spring 2025 retreat!
