The Five Rings Certification Program

Cultivating Excellence in Others

A NEXT GENERATION TRAINING
FOR ANYONE WHO WORKS WITH OTHERS

5R Matrix


If you really want to add the non-verbal and movement dimensions
to what you already know and can do, then this concentrated learning adventure
may be what you are looking for.

with STUART AND CAROL HELLER


"Of all the movement work I've done over the years,
I use what I learned with Stuart and Carol Heller
with most of my coaching clients and certainly with myself. 

I wanted to offer this program through Newfield
because I have personally experienced the power of their work
and know the value it offers. 

Is your persistent way of being no longer serving you? 
Bring it to this program and watch it transform."

Terrie Lupberger, MCC  
CEO, Newfield Network

It is becoming well accepted that there is great value and power in working with the “body” and the non-verbal.  The research that created the Five Rings Program radically extends the conversation about the body by accessing the global wealth of knowledge and practice about this topic.

While we draw upon the Warrior arts of many traditions with their concerns for power, control, and a solid center, this perspective is too small to satisfy all of your clients’ wants and needs.

Once you distill them from their cultural contexts, the classical traditions offer so many simple and powerful solutions to our very familiar and difficult daily problems.

Dr. Stuart Heller has devoted his life to this translation effort.  In the process, he devised a powerfully simple language of Nature’s movements that provides non-judgmental, action-oriented, constructive assessments and practices.  This research has been tested around the globe.

What makes The Five Rings Professional Training radically different from any other training is our interactive DVD – The Five Rings Operating System.  More about this learning resource

With this browser-based, multimedia encyclopedia, you do not have to remember everything nor have to do it all perfectly.  All of the key practices are available on video for yourself and your clients.  In addition, all the important ideas, models, and stories are also there, both in browser and pdf formats.
 
You are learning first and foremost how much you already always noticed --- but have been very well trained to ignore.  This is the non-verbal dimension of everything we do. 

The learning process is more like foreign language immersion than a regular training.  You will learn simple and powerful distinctions and change tools that you can apply in both your business and personal lives.  As you explore Thinking-with-Movement, you will spontaneously discover new ways
to understand and handle old habits, difficult situations, and charged memories.


We also offer a certification process based on case studies, workshop design, and self-study.

It is a virtue to be powerful.
It is a virtue to be compassionate.
It is a virtue to be happy, healthy, and wise.

It is natural for us to have these virtues.
It is normal to have difficulties with them.

Learning with mind and body together in movement,
what is natural for us to possess emerges authentically.

The Importance of the Non-Verbal

with Terrie Lupberger, CEO, Newfield Network


The Five Rings Program: Why Should I Take the Course?

with Terrie Lupberger, CEO, Newfield Network


The vision of this program began many years ago with the realization that what we are missing is a language of Nature’s movements that reveals the “hidden” patterns as it simultaneously shows us the practices for working with them.

The goal of the Five Rings Program is to assist you to add the non-verbal dimension to what you already know and can do. 

From the moment you leave the first 4-day conference you will find yourself applying the methods and the viewpoint – spontaneously and effectively.  This is what the students have told us.

The purpose of the first 4-day conference is to give you the keys to the basic language and technology.  You will also be practicing everything you learn in small group coaching processes.  With the Five Rings Operating System DVD, you will not have to worry about remembering everything.  All you need - papers, videos, processes, even assessment forms to use with your clients - can be found by searching through the menus.

In between the conferences, you will receive bi-weekly assignments to deepen your grasp and your explorations.  Working with your study group reveals even more perspectives and depths.  There is also a series of mentor tele-calls to facilitate your learning.

The main goal of the second 4-day conference is to show you – very simply and concretely – how much more you have learned than you had imagined plus giving you greater skill and a deepened appreciation for the language of movement.

Our purpose is to help you add the Five Rings language of movement to your current practice. Therefore, all of your clients – individual, group, or team – provide opportunities for practice.  You are learning to use movement, not only prescriptively, but also as a non-verbal magnifying lens so that your clients can step outside of stories and themselves to discover what a missing piece to the puzzle of change. 

Reading the students’ reports, we are continually struck by how differently – and successfully - they each apply the material. This is also one of our goals, to draw out your own gifts.  That means that you do not have to master everything --- especially in just six months.  Your job is to reawaken your sense of movement and to take only what you need for now.  There is plenty of time to learn more.
