Courses Reiki 1 and Reiki 2
Reiki is a natural way to use life energy on yourself and others. In our two-day Reiki course, you’ll learn how to let Reiki energy flow. After the Reiki 1 course, you can immediately begin practicing self-treatment and help others.
The Nederlof Center / Reiki Institute has been teaching Reiki for over 30 years. Its founders have authored several Reiki books and founded the Reiki Ryoho Foundation. Reiki is deeply rooted in our foundation! We are excited to announce that our Reiki 1 course is now also available in English (once or twice a year).

Reiki 1 course from the source
Nederlof Centrum has been teaching Reiki for over 30 years and passes on the knowledge they received directly from Phyllis Furumoto. Our teachers are affiliated with the recognized institute Reiki Ryoho, and their experience and knowledge come directly from Phyllis Furumoto. That is important because you normally only do the first degree Reiki course once in your life. Taking a Reiki course is a wonderful gift for yourself!
Upon completion of the Reiki 1 course, you will receive a recognized certificate. This certificate confirms your training and initiation of the Reiki 1 techniques and opens the door to further growth and development.
Reiki 2 course overview
The Reiki Level 2 course deepens your connection with Reiki energy, making it significantly stronger and more intense. This increased energy flow is often physically noticeable and allows for shorter treatment durations, starting from as little as 15 minutes. Reiki Level 2 focuses powerfully on mental and emotional healing, enabling you to address fears, past traumas, frustrations, and grief effectively. It provides a profound experience of Reiki’s transformative power and offers more in-depth insights into yourself and life’s truths.
With Level 2, you can also perform distance healing, allowing you to treat individuals without needing to be physically present. This course empowers you to work on painful memories, current challenges, and phobias with remarkable results, while respecting your personal pace and boundaries. Reiki always works for your highest good.
Reiki 2 course – Okuden
The Japanese term for the second degree is Okuden, meaning “inner temple” or “deeper knowledge.” Reiki gently and profoundly connects you with your true self—your higher self—offering a transformative journey of self-discovery. During the Reiki Level 2 course, you’ll learn to work with specific symbols, a key component of this level.
These symbols are introduced only during the second degree because their effectiveness depends on prior experience and the essential oral transmission by your Reiki Master. To qualify for Level 2, you must have completed Reiki Level 1 at least 90 days earlier and practiced Reiki regularly, particularly on yourself. This period allows Reiki to fully integrate and prepare you for the deeper work of the second degree.
More information (in Dutch only) is available on our website at Reiki cursus, or you can also sign up directly through the website.
Reiki Power – Ability and Experience
After the 1st degree of Reiki, you will be able to transmit Reiki energy without limits —without it costing you any energy. You can also treat yourself after the Reiki course.
Reiki is a loving way of healing, healing through the laying on of hands. Reiki can be considered a wonderful tool. It is a treatment method for body and mind together, so it can be used for both physical complaints and the healing of our entire being. You will then acquire the ability to be a Reiki channel, partly through several initiations during a Reiki course. More information about the three degrees can be found below under topics.
Reiki on a Personal Level
Reiki initiates a process of inner growth and healing. Reiki brings balance, clears blockages, and activates the self-healing capacity of our incredible system. Reiki gives you more energy – also because resolved thought patterns no longer cost you energy.

Benefits of taking a Reiki course at Nederlof Centrum
Today, as a prospective Reiki practitioner, you have more choices than 30 years ago. This is certainly a luxury, but it can also make it difficult to decide where to take your Reiki course. There are significant differences between schools of thought, such as Western Reiki and Japanese Reiki. When you consider high-quality courses where students truly leave with the full power of Reiki, the choice isn’t actually any greater than it was 30 years ago!
Just as then, we recommend taking your Reiki course at a center that offers a Reiki practice that stems not only from the founder, but also from Mikao Usui, in both word and practice. With teachers who truly embody Reiki as a foundation in their lives. A center that, so to speak, will still be around in 100 years and can provide after-service. Where you truly go home with the power of Reiki. That’s our promise!

Voor wie is de opleiding geschikt?
Who is this course suitable for?
Reiki is for everyone. After attending a Reiki course, you ‘have Reiki.’ This means that from that moment on, you can treat yourself and others with Reiki. Reiki can only truly be experienced firsthand through a Reiki treatment or by taking a course. Once you know and feel what it does for you, it would be a loss to voluntarily go without it in your life.
You don’t so much learn the Reiki method as you ‘receive’ the ability from someone who is capable of imparting it. Such a person is called a ‘Reiki Master’ (Reiki teacher). The experienced Reiki Masters at the institute teach Reiki according to the tradition of the authentic system. The institute conveys this by carrying the Usui seal.
