How our introductory courses work
A tutor presents philosophical ideas, and leads a discussion based on what arises in the group. Being practical rather than academic, the emphasis is on personal knowledge and experience. Students are encouraged neither to accept nor reject the ideas put forward, but to test them in practice for themselves, in the light of their own experience.
Local Course
Local face-to-face evening courses available in Birmingham.
Peace of Mind
Following all Health & Safety guidelines for your complete peace of mind.
Practical Wisdom
Courses in practical wisdom for everyday living. Meet with like minded individuals.
