Lifelong Learning

Learning Together

We offer a number of experiential personal and professional development opportunities for lifelong students.

With a focus on gathering to learn in community, these programs offer new or expanded ways to integrate psychology, spirituality and somatics into our experiences and practices.

Lifelong Learning programs and workshops include:

  • Continuing Education
  • Learning Communities
  • In-Person Retreats

Prerequisite requirements vary by workshop and event. We recommend beginning with our Foundational Courses, which provide a strong introduction to the Narrative Enneagram method and experience with the following:

  • Capacity for self-reflection
  • Understanding of type structure
  • Familiarity with instincts, subtypes and the cognitive/emotional habits of each type

Also, be sure to check our Program Calendar regularly for additional programs such as Everyday Exploration workshops and other classes of interest.

I would not be the teacher I am if it were not for the Bergamo Learning Community. It has completely transformed my teaching because I’m doing my personal work while I teach, trusting the unfolding that comes between me and my students and clients. I have so much more faith because I’ve learned methods to be present in the moment. The other piece that has been transformative is the extraordinarily safe container that has been created by the integrity of the teachers and the community. When I go home, the community is still with me.

Learning Communities are communities of practice. These groups meet for two weekend workshops per year to gather and deepen personal discoveries.

In-Person Retreats

In 2022, we incorporated the former Arizona Enneagram Association’s curriculum, including their highly regarded Spiritual Freedom Retreat series held in Tucson, AZ.
