We want to be flexible and help with payment plans. Here is an idea of what it looks like:

Total Investment: £1920

Deposit by July: £650

1st Instalment (August): £635

2nd Instalment (September/October): £635

• Between 12^th September - 21st November each participant will have access to two private sessions of 1.5hr with Gizelle in her studio.
  • • For healing, a cacao ceremony, questions or anything more
    • A chance to practice with Gizelle and prepare you for your graduation
• You will be expected to read two books and be given their titles ahead of training
• Within each module you will be set homework that needs to be submitted
• Outside of these hours you will be expected to hold cacao ceremonies/drink cacao with yourself, each other and/or family members. Support will be provided for this.

This training prepares you for a relationship that will last a lifetime with yourself, mother cacao and how you wish to see the world.

Module One: Roots & Remembrance

12th September / 7 Lion Yard, SW4 7NF / 1-6pm

We begin at the beginning. No pretence.  Back to basics.

You will explore:

• The ancestral history of cacao and its sacred lineage
• The difference between ceremonial cacao and processed chocolate
• Different Cacaos and their properties
• Ethical sourcing and why quality matters
• The science: physical and emotional benefits of cacao
• Coffee v Cacao – is there an actual debate to be had?
• Beginning your own personal relationship with the plant
• How to make Cacao, recipes and dosages
• Cacao ceremony

This module is about grounding and surrendering. Before you serve others, you meet cacao yourself and together. We begin to balance.

Module Two: Holding & Integrity

10th October / Soma Home, N16 9HP / 10-4pm

Now we move into space-holding.

You will learn:

• What it truly means to hold space (and what it does not mean)
• Nervous system awareness and emotional safety
• Creating safe, contained ceremonial environments for you and others
• Consent, boundaries and energetic responsibility
• Structuring a ceremony with profound clarity and intention
• Cacao Ceremony

This month builds your confidence not through performance, but through presence.

Module Three: Facilitation & Embodiment

7th November / The Space, SW4 9NS / 11-8pm

Now we weave it all together.

You will explore:

• Designing ceremonies for friends, family or clients
• Working with intention, music, modalities, ritual and integration
• Supporting emotional release with steadiness
• Anchoring your own voice as a facilitator
• Creating ceremonies for yourself as a lifelong practice
• Cacao ceremony

The Graduation

21st November / 7 Lion Yard, SW4 7NF / 1-6pm

After three months of learning, unlearning, softening and strengthening, you will step forward not just as a student, but as a facilitator.

You will:

• Design and facilitate a ceremonial cacao experience together
• Hold space for the group with clarity and integrity
• Demonstrate your understanding of safety, containment and nervous system awareness
• Share your unique voice and approach

This is not about perfection. It is about presence. You will be witnessed as you hold cacao and hold people and that witnessing matters.

You will need to book a private session with Gizelle to catch up or use the sessions that are already allocated within the course.

No. This course is not refundable as places are so limited. Please do not book unless you are committed.

Get in touch! Whether it be about payment plans, your experience, any worries or concerns, I am here. Let's journey together.
