The are two international on site courses in 2026.
One in May 15-24. And one in September 1-10 in Tanumshede, Sweden (about 2 hours drive from Gothenborg). Both classes are open for students who will continue from last year. Some places are available for new students. We have already received a great interest for these courses, which we are very grateful for. As a complement there is also an online course this year.
