Craniosacral Core Series
Next Core Series begins November 5, 2025.
The Core Series serves as the cornerstone of Craniosacral work. It provides instruction and practice of the most important tools--stillness and presence, as well as the hands-on techniques, anatomy and physiology related to this work. Students will learn to perceive the cranial wave, mid tide, and long tide, and they will learn to use them fluidly to address systemic as well as localized conditions and client concerns. Students will practice activities to develop their communication skills, intuition, and ability to perceive the client's overall energy and health. Students complete the Core Series as a cohort, developing bonds that allow them to explore this work deeply and safely. Students receive a certificate of completion upon satisfying the requirements of the program.
This 8 to 10-month training consists of:
- 4 Core Classes, each 28 hours over 4 days (112 hours)
- 4 Integration Days, each 7 hours (28 hours)
- 45 Client Records (90 hours)
- 2 two-way exchanges with fellow students between each class (9 hours)
- Total of 140 in-class clock hours
Prerequisite: Craniosacral Introductory Workshop or permission from Instructor.

- "I was meditating this morning and noticed something. I could feel this expansion of vibration, energy outside of myself. Usually I try to picture this as a ball of light, but today I could feel it coming off of me further and further outside of my physical body. Then I remembered that class day where we meet at the beach and you described your sense of long tide. At the time and since, I have had to imagine, but today I think I experienced long tide in a very physical way. Thank you for teaching me the skills to be aware of such an experience" ~ Amanda H
- "I feel like the Core Series has not only taken my practice to a whole different level. I’m also in a whole different, a better place, better able to give and receive. The spacing between the Core classes was good—for the most part it allowed me to get things done in a timely manner, with the exception of life sometimes getting in the way. The Integration Days were very helpful. Taking the Core Series was transforming and life changing. My perspective and outlook on life has changed. I’m more mindful of my clients and their needs. Lauren is an amazingly gifted, talented teacher. She is very intuitive, and has deep insight and knowledge of the human body. She is not only nurturing and warm, but provides a safe, fun environment that is conducive to learning. Thank you from the bottom of my heart." ~ Nancy H
