ALTRU Trainings
This is not the time to stop or hit pause on transformation. Now, more than ever, the tools ALTRU Center offers are being called upon to lead and inform an empowered & connected community. Therefore, we are offering new, innovative trainings to meet public need and safety while maintaining the precautions of the pandemic. Join us for online, virtual trainings to learn to take on these challenges using the tools of transformation.
ALTRU CENTER workshops rest on a simple, fundamental philosophical principle: each person is born whole and complete, lacking nothing. So no matter what your race, religion, socioeconomic status, or physical gifts and challenges, everybody is born complete. The Center provides workshops, continuing education classes, and other learning experiences to support you to rediscover and return to that original wholeness.

Masters Course
Join us for a very special event as we host Master Trainer Bettie J. Spruill. The Masters Course is an in-depth experience of the principles of mastery and the practices of living a transformed life of freedom and grace. The workshop presents a thorough philosophical and intellectual framework for transformation. As such, the Masters Course is the foundation on which the Part 1, Part 2, Living Integration and any Graduate Workshops are built. Bettie herself wrote the course based on decades of experience as trainer, facilitator and coach. ALTRU is proud to be the only center in the world to have the author herself teach this course. Don't miss this chance to spend a 3-day weekend learning with the incomparable master herself!

It is with pride and optimism that we introduce ALTRU Center’s newest training, Virtual Awareness: a 2-day experiential, interactive and empowering journey designed for the current social climate.

This on-line virtual training is a brand new and distinct training featuring unique and inspired exercises. There will be value created for participants at all levels of their transformational journey and no pre-requisite courses are needed to participate.

Part 1 of our training series is about self-discovery. Who are you, once you strip away the trappings of modern life? Which core beliefs further your goals, and which ones limit you? Through exercises, games, lectures, sharing, small group work and close-eyed visualization, students have an opportunity to experience how you respond or react to life. This awareness creates new possibilities, new choices and personal insight which begins to clear a path to a purpose-driven life.

Part 2 builds upon the awareness you opened during Part 1 of the training, allowing you to powerfully break through your limiting beliefs and conversations. You’ll reconnect with your purpose and shift your perspective on what is possible, not only in your life, but also in your community. The amazing experiences shared in these 5 days will last a lifetime.

SERENITY, PEACE AND BREATHING
Trainer: Rob Israel
​
March 3rd @ 3PM – 6PM
Breath is the vehicle to conscious awareness, mindfulness and presence and can also help us access our unconscious and the hidden material that is the basis of our conditioning. In this 3-hour workshop, ALTRU Center co-founder Rob Israel will share the fundamentals of meditation along with various breath exercises that support well-being, manage stress and reset the nervous system. We will then have a facilitated Breathwork session and use conscious connected breathing to explore non-ordinary states of consciousness using a proven, known, safe and drug-free methodology. This technology, while already over 50 years old is just now coming to the forefront of personal growth can take you places that provide clear insight into your identity, your life, your relationships, and your connection with the divine. Join us in this special opportunity to take a deep dive into the mystery of the body, heart, mind and spiritual aspects of who you are.
