Reiki Classes for the City on the Wooded River

Boise takes its name from French-Canadian fur trappers of the 1820s, who called the waterway la riviere boisee, meaning the wooded river. That river still runs through the heart of Boise, Idaho, and the city grew up along its banks after the 1863 gold discovery in the Boise Basin brought Fort Boise and then a town beside it. A place named for trees beside moving water feels like a fitting home for a quiet, steady Reiki practice.

The Ascension School of Healing Arts teaches from Ferndale, Michigan, and people in Boise can join through the live Zoom class or our self-study courses. Our approach is warm and practical: you learn hand positions, breath and attention in plain language, then practice them where you live. A student in Boise might sit for a few calm minutes facing the window each evening, letting the day settle before bed.

Live Zoom Classes for Idaho's Capital

Boise is the capital and largest city of Idaho and the seat of Ada County, home to 235,684 people at the 2020 census. Its days are shaped by the Idaho State Capitol and state and county government, by Boise State University, and by employers such as Micron Technology along with the headquarters of Albertsons, the J.R. Simplot Company and WinCo Foods. That is a city of full calendars, and a live Zoom class lets you learn Reiki without adding anything else to the week.

In the live Zoom class you see the teacher, ask questions as they come up and practice alongside others in real time. Donna Lakes, teaching since 1999, guides each session with patience and clear steps. A student in Boise might log on from a home office near Boise State University or from a kitchen table across Ada County, and the class feels just as personal either way.

Self-Study That Follows Boise's Year

Every late March, Treefort Music Fest fills downtown Boise, a tradition first staged in 2012, and the Idaho Shakespeare Festival brings its own season of performances. Between festivals, the Boise River Greenbelt offers a path system following the Boise River through the city. A Boise calendar has busy stretches and quiet ones, so our self-study courses let you learn at a pace that matches yours.

Self-study courses give you lessons you can return to whenever you have a calm hour. A student in Boise might listen to a lesson after an afternoon on the Greenbelt, then practice a short self-Reiki sequence that evening. When questions come up, the live Zoom class is there as a place to bring them and practice with a teacher.

Community and Attention on the Basque Block

Boise is the center of one of the largest Basque communities in the United States, and the Basque Block on Grove Street between 6th Street and Capitol Boulevard anchors its cultural institutions. Every five years the city hosts Jaialdi, a Basque festival that draws people together around shared heritage. Boise knows the value of gathering with intention, and Reiki practice rests on that same kind of attention.

Reiki at ASHA is taught as a simple, gentle practice of presence for yourself and for the people around you. People in Boise can join the live Zoom class to share that practice with a group, or work through self-study courses alone. A student in Boise might bring a few quiet moments of Reiki to a family gathering after a long week of festivals at Julia Davis Park.
