THE CHERRY TREE PATHWAY

INTRO DAYS & TASTER SESSIONS

apply here

At OneSpirit, we understand that everyone comes to our Cherry Tree Pathway for different reasons, just as each person attends an Intro Day for their own unique purpose. Whether you’re seeking connection, looking for detailed information, wanting to experience a taste of the training, or simply need answers to your questions, we’ve reimagined our Intro Day programme to cater to these diverse needs. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach, we’ve created four distinct versions of our Intro Days, each designed to support you on your journey, no matter where you’re starting from.

What Do You Want to Know?

Q+A SESSION

We always offer a Q&A section on our website, but we understand that in-person conversations can be more impactful. That’s why we’ve introduced a Q&A at each of our sessions, where you can interact with our tutors and current students, ask any questions, and get a feel for what the training is all about. This is your chance to ask the questions that matter most to you.

INFORMATION-FOCUSED

We know that many people come to our Intro Days primarily seeking information, whether it’s about the curriculum, delivery, or our tutors. If you’re looking for clear and comprehensive details, this session is made just for you. Our team will guide you through all the essential information you need to make an informed decision.

CONNECTION & GROWTH

For those seeking a deeper connection and an opportunity to reflect and grow, we’ve created a version of our Intro Day that focuses on sharing, meditation, and connecting with others. This is the perfect space to meet like-minded individuals, experience a taste of our approach, and reflect on how the Cherry Tree Pathway can support your spiritual growth.

TASTER SESSION

Sometimes, a simple taste is all it takes to spark your interest. For those looking to experience just a little of what we offer, our taster sessions are the perfect introduction. You’ll get a hands-on feel for the type of work and energy that flows throughout the Cherry Tree Pathway training.
