Your Path Into Saunotus
You can begin with our 3-day Intro Course to learn the foundations of Finnish sauna ritual, meditative steam practices, and cultural heritage. The intro can be taken on its own, with no further commitment.
Likewise, each of the three 5-day retreats can be booked individually as a self-contained experience — or joined together (15 days total) as a full sauna healer training path.
After each retreat, you have the option to stay on for an apprenticeship, gaining hands-on experience by treating real guests during public sauna sessions.
A spot in the retreat is reserved by paying a reservation fee (200 €).
