Angelic Reiki is taught through a small number of in-person workshops rather than a long ladder of degrees. In the official international system, there are four separate workshops: Levels 1 and 2, Levels 3 and 4, Professional Practitioner, and Master Teacher. A nine-day full-syllabus workshop is also offered. The most important thing to understand is that "Master" and "teacher" are not the same step.
This article sets out the official structure, what each stage includes, and where other Angelic Reiki organisations differ. What a workshop actually gives you depends on the organisation, the teacher and the certificate you receive.
The Official Structure at a Glance
| Stage | Common name | Purpose | Prerequisite |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Angelic Reiki Levels 1 and 2 | Practitioner-level training for self-healing, family and friends; includes 1st and 2nd degree attunements | None; open to beginners |
| 2 | Angelic Reiki Levels 3 and 4 | Master energy and personal development; includes 3rd and 4th degree attunements | Valid Level 1 and 2 certificate from a registered teacher |
| 3 | Professional Practitioner | Further healings, attunements and professional-practice training; case studies required | Levels 1 and 2, plus 3 and 4 |
| 4 | Master Teacher | Preparation for teaching Angelic Reiki workshops and facilitating attunements | Professional Practitioner plus approved case studies |
The official site describes these as four separate workshops, not one continuous course. It also offers a nine-day full-syllabus workshop with Christine Core that covers the complete system in one extended training.
Level 1 and 2: The Practitioner Workshop
The first workshop is the entry point. It is open to beginners and does not require prior Reiki training. The official description says its purpose is to awaken an unconditional link with the healing energy of the Angelic Kingdom, for personal use and for supporting family and friends.
The workshop is usually two and a half days, taught in a group. It includes:
- Two cleanses and attunements, for the 1st and 2nd degrees.
- An Archangelic initiation and blessing.
- A karma cutting and angelic clearing before the attunements.
- Activation of the Reiki symbols to the angelic vibration, and by Lord Melchizedek to the galactic vibration.
- An attunement to the Angelic Kingdom of Light at the 11th dimension through Archangel Metatron and the Mighty Sarim.
- Practical healing exchanges and guidance on self-healing, distance healing, crystals and essences.
- A Master Crystal and a practitioner manual.
- A certificate of training achievement to 1st and 2nd Degree Angelic Reiki.
The official site is explicit that this workshop does not include a professional qualification. It is a foundation for personal practice and for supporting family and friends. Some participants go on to professional training; many do not, and that is a legitimate outcome.
The association's version of the same workshop also runs over two and a half days and includes the 1st and 2nd degree attunements, seven symbols activated by Archangel Metatron, an attunement to the Angelic Kingdom at the 11th dimension, and a certificate. The wording differs, but the broad shape is similar.
For the ritual itself, see Angelic Reiki Attunement.
Level 3 and 4: The Master Workshop
The second workshop is for people who hold a valid Level 1 and 2 certificate and want to go further. The official site calls it an initiation into the Master energy of the system and describes it as an invitation to self-mastery rather than a teaching qualification.
The workshop is usually three days. Its syllabus includes:
- Cleansing and attunement to the 3rd degree.
- Cleansing, entity release and attunement to the 4th degree.
- An Angelic Ray Attunement.
- A Masters Archangelic Initiation.
- Healing exchanges, including the Eye Healing and work with Soul Group energies.
- A review of the nature of angelic energy and the Archangels.
- Information about the Angelic Reiki organisation in the participant's country.
- A certificate of training achievement to 3rd and 4th Degree Angelic Reiki.
The association's version also runs over three days and describes 13 symbols activated to the angelic level, an attunement to the 3rd and 4th degrees, gifts of higher knowledge from the Sarim, and advice on teaching. It presents the workshop as available to those who hold a Level 1 and 2 certificate and who are ready to progress, whether for personal development or with teaching in view.
The founders' official site is clear that the 3 and 4 workshop is not the teacher qualification. Teaching requires the later Master Teacher stage, with its own prerequisites and practical training. A Master certificate alone does not authorise teaching in the official system.
Professional Practitioner
The third workshop is for people who intend to practise professionally. The official description says it is split into two parts: two days of further healings, attunements and a deepening of the Angelic Reiki philosophy, plus a day of training for professional practice.
It requires case studies after the workshop, which are assessed and discussed. Those case studies are part of the learning, not just a formality: they give the new practitioner a chance to reflect on real sessions, ask questions and receive feedback.
The prerequisites are a valid Level 1 and 2 certificate and a valid 3 and 4 certificate, both from a registered teacher. The official site does not present this workshop as an assurance of professional success or of insurance, registration or legal permission to practise. Those are separate questions governed by local law and by the policies of insurers and professional bodies.
Master Teacher
The fourth workshop is the teaching qualification. The official description says it includes further attunements and a deepening and review of all aspects of Angelic Reiki in preparation for teaching.
The prerequisites are demanding: valid Level 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and Professional Practitioner certificates, plus at least three case studies approved by a registered teacher. The workshop covers how to teach the workshops, how to facilitate attunements, how to hold the space and how to work with the group.
The founders' site says participants can be confident that the Angels will be present at every workshop they teach and will support them whenever they facilitate attunements. That is a statement of faith within the lineage rather than an accreditation or an assurance of teaching competence.
The Nine-Day Full Syllabus
The official site also offers a nine-day workshop with Christine Core that covers the full Angelic Reiki syllabus in one extended training. It is described as a way to cover all the subjects more fully and to give teachers practical experience of teaching and leading a healing exchange.
The nine-day format is not a shortcut around the prerequisites. It is an alternative delivery of the same body of material, taught by the co-founder. If you are considering it, ask what certificate it leads to, whether it includes the Professional Practitioner and Master Teacher stages, and what follow-up or assessment is required.
The Association's Structure
The Angelic Reiki Association, a separate organisation, presents a different structure. Its public pages describe:
- A Level 1 and 2 Practitioner Workshop over two and a half days.
- A Level 3 and 4 Master Workshop over three days.
- A Metatron Methods Workshop over two days, described as a newer body of work on the spiritual principles behind Angelic Reiki.
- A Soul Midwifery for Angelic Reiki course for healers who want to work with people at the end of life.
The association's levels overlap with the founders' levels, but the organisations are not the same and their syllabuses are not identical. The association also says it teaches Angelic Reiki as channelled by Archangel Metatron through Kevin Core and presents itself as the leading organisation for the original format. The founders' official site disputes that claim and describes the association as having been set up without consultation after a disagreement over standards.
A prospective student does not have to resolve that dispute. They do need to know which organisation's certificate they will receive, what it permits, and whether the teacher is accountable to anyone.
How to Verify a Level or Teacher
Because the names of the levels are used loosely online, it is worth checking a few concrete things:
- The certificate. Who issues it, what level does it name, and what does the issuing organisation say it permits?
- The teacher's listing. Is the teacher listed on the organisation's website as a registered teacher? Is the listing current?
- The prerequisites. Does the teacher require the official prerequisite, or do they offer "fast-track" access that bypasses it?
- The format. Is the workshop in person, how many days, and how many participants?
- The content. Does the syllabus match the official description, or is it a shortened version?
- The ethics. Does the teacher make medical claims, promise spiritual powers or pressure you to continue to the next level?
A lower price or a shorter workshop is not automatically a problem. A workshop that claims to deliver the same qualification in a fraction of the time, without the prerequisites or the practical work, is a different product and should be described as such.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many levels are there in Angelic Reiki?
The official international system has four workshops: Levels 1 and 2, Levels 3 and 4, Professional Practitioner, and Master Teacher. Some organisations present a shorter structure with two core workshops plus additional specialist courses.
Do I need to start at Level 1?
Yes, for the official system. Level 1 and 2 is the entry point and is open to beginners. The later workshops require a valid certificate from a registered teacher. Prior Usui Reiki training is not required for Level 1 and 2.
Is Level 3 and 4 a teaching qualification?
No. The official site says the 3 and 4 workshop is not the teacher qualification. Teaching requires the Master Teacher workshop, which has additional prerequisites and practical training.
What is the difference between Master and Master Teacher?
In the official system, "Master" refers to the 3 and 4 attunements and the personal development work that goes with them. "Master Teacher" is the later workshop that prepares someone to teach and facilitate attunements. The two are not interchangeable.
How long does each level take?
The Level 1 and 2 workshop is usually two and a half days; Level 3 and 4 is usually three days; Professional Practitioner is usually three days; Master Teacher is usually three days. The nine-day full-syllabus workshop covers the whole system in one extended format.
Can I teach after Level 1 and 2?
No, not in the official system. Level 1 and 2 does not include a professional qualification, let alone a teaching qualification. Anyone who offers to make you a teacher after a short introductory course is using the words differently from the official bodies.
Where to Go Next
Read Angelic Reiki for the system overview and Angelic Reiki Attunement for what happens in the rituals. Angelic Reiki vs Usui Reiki compares the training with the older Usui ladder, and Reiki Certification vs Accreditation explains why a certificate is not the same as an accreditation. For the wider Reiki levels, see Reiki Level 1, Reiki Level 2 and Reiki Level 3.
A level is a description of a course, not a measure of a person. The useful question is not "how high can I climb?" but "what am I actually trained to do, and who is holding me accountable for doing it well?"
