This scholarship is lovingly named in honor of our beloved STAR NATION REIKI student, hodari blue, whose presence and light left an indelible imprint on their cohort and all who had the privilege of crossing their path.

In their honor, we are offering two partial scholarships for our upcoming RETURNING TO THE SHAMANIC & BUDDHIST ROOTS OF REIKI Training, scheduled for September 10–15, 2026.

Since accessibility matters deeply to us, these scholarships are offered on a needs-based basis and will be awarded according to clear eligibility criteria. These funds are intended for those whose financial resources are limited and for whom full tuition would create genuine hardship. We ask that you answer the application questions with honesty and transparency so that this support may reach those for whom it is most needed.

Each scholarship award is $1,700 per person. This is a partial scholarship and a work-trade is not required.

Recipients will be required to complete a registration form and submit a $500 non-refundable deposit to secure their place in the training. The remaining balance not covered by the scholarship must be paid according to the following installment schedule:

• April 30, 2026

• July 31, 2026

If you would like to apply, please complete the application form below. Due to the anticipated volume of submissions, we will be in contact only with those selected to receive financial support. We appreciate your understanding.

For questions, please contact Nsomeka, our Program Coordinator, at (415) 757-8227.

Thank you for applying!

May this scholarship carry forward the spirit, wisdom, and light of our beloved hodari blue.
