Our Commitments:

We at the Gaia School are committed to doing our part in making Earth Medicine people's medicine to ensure that our work is reaching a diverse group of students. Our sliding scale is an honor system that allows those of us with greater privilege to pay more so that others can pay less. Our community agreement trusts you to pay what you truly can afford. Sliding scale is not an opportunity to give yourself a discount. Like Mother Nature, we believe in the economy of generosity. We offer you the option to pay in full or make payment plans. 2 Work Trade positions are available. All is described in the payment plan section below. To support the diversity of our student body, we ask you to please share with us your ethnic/cultural background:

Your Gender

Anything else you feel called to share?

ABOUT OUR HONOR SYSTEM TUITION:

The tuition for Open Your Intuition is $777 - $2,300 for 28 hours of in-class training. The tuition may be paid in full or divided into a monthly payment plan. If you choose to pay your tuition in full, you may receive a $50 discount. We use an honor system designed to make the course accessible for all income levels. We are aware that our economy of generosity is not something you may be familiar with, so please read carefully how our community agreements and your participation makes a difference. The honor-based system is modeled after the generosity of nature and asks us each to pay what we can afford. We ask you to either pay the tuition in full, or to divide your tuition into monthly payments using one of the payment plans. The sliding scale tuition translates to the payment plans as $129.50 - $383/ month for 6 months plus the deposit. The lower end of our sliding scale is intended for those who need financial assistance and who have an income of 30k or lower a year. We are committed to making our Open Your Intuition Course accessible to all income brackets. If you are a low income student and need financial assistance, we encourage you to contact us for additional support. We are offering 2 Work Trade positions this year. If you are physically able to help Judy 40 min before and after class, please send us an email applying for the work trade position. Work traders receive $200 off tuition in exchange for helping with set up and clean up during their class. We thank you for participating in our economy of generosity! Please include your contribution of any amount with this form. PLEASE CHECK THOSE THAT APPLY:

Because we will be holding healing circles and safe space for each other each class,

It's incredibly important that safe and solid space is held in this circle. This means coming with respect, openness, non-judgement, self-responsibility, self-care, and healthy boundaries. Each of us are asked to be conscious of how our energy effects or distracts the circle and each individual from their own deep work. Each person is always free to come to circle with what they are moving through internally, but asked to come with an ability to hold support for the work we're doing together in circle as well.
