Looking at human behaviour from seven dimensions, the programme offers an in-depth and extensive set of self-development techniques. Discover how to help yourself and others move forward through challenges, release latent skills and potential and create a self-directed life path. The course is taught by Faculty Instructors (senior trainers) and is a core part of the training to become an Educational Kinesiology Consultant.

The concepts
- The Seven Dimensions process offers a wholly individualised set of opportunities for change to each person rather than one specific set of solutions to any given challenge
- The highest priority is given to each individual’s development of their own system of self-structured learning
- Facilitator and client approach every shared session as being a teachable moment where anything is possible
- The facilitator’s role is to provide an environment in which new experience can take place rather than offering a methodology
- Each change process is based on the integration of physical and developmental skills with emotional needs and rational goals
- The activities and techniques of the In Depth programme can be adapted for any level of skill, wellbeing and function
The techniques
- How to draw out awareness of where the blocks to moving forward may be held in the body
- Encouraging self-education through making links between behaviour, function and physiology
- Teaching simple body feedback techniques as a guide to the priority areas in which progress is needed
- Encouraging self-reliance in choosing activities to release stress responses to challenges
- Using Edu-K processes and activities with creativity and spontaneity, in tandem with a structured system
- Guiding clients through a process of self-actualising change whilst respecting their innate intelligence to know what is needed, to self-direct, to make choices and to find meaning in their chosen goals
After the course
You will receive a Letter of Attendance from your Faculty Instructor on completion of the full class hours. The next step is to complete the designated post-course case studies. Your Faculty Instructor will support you in this process and evaluate your case study experience as part of the learning process. To complete the post-course curriculum, you also need to take a written test that can be completed in your own time and online. The aim is to help you to evaluate your understanding of the concepts and practice you explored in the Seven Dimensions course. Satisfactory completion of the case studies and the test entitles you to a Certificate of Completion, which states that you have fully completed the course requirements. This Certificate is valid for four years, should you wish to continue training in the future.
