Reiki classes for the Forest City, live on Zoom

Cleveland earned the nickname the Forest City, and today Cleveland Metroparks, the Emerald Necklace, spans over 25,000 acres with more than 300 miles of trails. People in Cleveland, Ohio who already find steadiness on a quiet trail can join the live Zoom class from home and learn Reiki as a calm, hands-on practice they carry into ordinary days.

Ascension School of Healing Arts teaches from Ferndale, Michigan, and everything on this page happens online. The live Zoom class lets you practice with a teacher and ask questions as you go, while the self-study courses let you move at your own pace between work, family dinners and everything else a Cleveland week holds.

A city that knows how to start over

Moses Cleaveland arrived on July 22, 1796, and laid out Public Square near the mouth of the Cuyahoga River. Generations later, the river caught fire on June 22, 1969, and the national coverage helped spark the American environmental movement. Cleveland has a long habit of looking honestly at what needs care and then doing the work.

Reiki practice asks for a similar honesty on a smaller scale: sitting down, noticing how you feel, and giving yourself a few steady moments of attention. In the live Zoom class, Donna Lakes, teaching since 1999, walks you through each step so the practice feels plain and practical rather than mysterious.

Rhythm, rock and roll, and a quieter kind of practice

Alan Freed staged the Moondog Coronation Ball at the Cleveland Arena on March 21, 1952, widely regarded as the first rock and roll concert ever held, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was dedicated on the Lake Erie shore on September 1, 1995. Clevelanders know how a shared rhythm can pull a room together.

A live Zoom class has its own version of that feeling: a group of people on screens, breathing together and following the same gentle sequence of hand positions. Between Browns, Cavaliers and Guardians seasons, learning something slow and attentive can be a welcome change of pace for people in Cleveland.

Self-study courses with a Cleveland kitchen-table feel

Cleveland's food carries heavy Slavic and Hungarian heritage, from pierogies and stuffed cabbage to chicken paprikash, and the West Side Market in Ohio City is the city's oldest public market. Those traditions are passed hand to hand, and the self-study courses work in a similar way, with lessons you can return to and repeat until the steps feel familiar.

People in Cleveland can pair the self-study courses with the live Zoom class: read and practice on your own, then bring questions to the group. Either way, you learn from home in Cleveland, Ohio, with nothing to arrange beyond a quiet chair and a steady internet connection.
