Welcome to
Holistic Studies Institute extends a warm welcome all who wish
to unfold their psychic potential by participating in its Psychic Development
Program at its Midtown Manhattan location. Having been founded 35
years ago, the Holistic Studies Institute has a rich history of offering
education in the intuitive arts. It has become
a respected leader and an authority in the area of Psychic Development. To date
over 10,000 people in the
Since its inception, HSI has offered more than just psychic classes. We
now offer an updated and restructured three-level accredited program
in psychic and mediumship development designed to prepare students to become so
well trained that they are eligible to become a Certified Intuitive Consultant
and or a Certified Psychic-Medium. This program
has enrolled people from all walks of life who
have learned and developed fascinating psychic and mediumistic abilities.
About the Program
Without burdensome work involved, the Psychic Development Program at HSI is designed to be fun, informative, concise and comprehensive. It emphasizes common sense, balanced with spirituality, which gives quality, depth and meaning to the psychic development process.
In our courses, students frequently participate in a psychic development circle (which is like a psychic laboratory), led by qualified teachers, for the purpose of developing mediumship and other psychic abilities. This circle begins with a meditation. Next, the teacher will help students to sort out the psychic impressions, which they receive and gently lead them into a discovery of their unique mode of psychic expression. All efforts are made, each week, to create a conducive atmosphere which will provide you with numerous opportunities to have meaningful psychic experiences.
A great feature of our program is our low tuition. Our Weekend Course is priced at a very low $260 per weekend (If you enroll BEFORE or at the very latest, on the Friday before the class begins by paying tuition in full according to the above stated policy) otherwise walk-ins at the door must pay $295. Tuition for our Circle of Light evening course is payable in installments--see below for tuition details.
Moreover, our classes are small (generally 10-25 students). A close teacher-student relationship is important to us and to the quality of your psychic education. Integrated into our program are written texts, authored by experts, which utilize knowledge derived from many years of research.
Our classroom environment is warm and friendly. A close, harmonious feeling is generated between students, and very quickly we find our classmates becoming a cohesive, family-like unit.

TUITION
Reduction of Tuition -- Now only $230 per weekend class -- (a $30 savings over last year)
Psychic Development Tuition-- Levels I - III--Payable in advance
All tuition must be paid in full before enrollment is accepted. In addition, tuition and enrollment must be complete by Friday of the evening immediately preceding the class.
Total tuition payable in advance for each weekend is only $230.
Walk-in (non-enrolled students): We understand that at times there are extenuating circumstances when it is not possible for you to pre-enroll according to our policy. We do allow for walk-ins, but because we must reserve rooms for our classes in advance, we need to know how many enrollments we have. This causes extra administrative work and expenses for our program. Therefore tuition is slightly higher for people who just walk in to take our courses. In all cases the teacher of the course has the right to refuse admittance to any walk-in that the teacher perceives may not be an appropriate candidate for our courses or that particular level. All prerequisites must be met before you are accepted into any level course. Total tuition for walk-ins is payable at the door to the teacher in the amount of $260.
Want to REPEAT a class? Tuition for repeat students is 1/2 = $115 per weekend class:
For any student who wishes to repeat a class they may do so at a significant reduction in tuition. Tuition is ONLY $115 for repeat students!! Call our office for more details.
Note: All weekend Psychic Development Levels are taught and presented over 3 weekends. Students will receive a Certificate of Completion when they have finished the 3rd weekend.
By comparing our Program to other courses of similar nature, HSI provides 20 hours of instruction in each level with a very competitive tuition.
Texts: For Level I & Level II there is a text, each of which is $30 (including tax) and may be purchased at the first class. There is no text for Level III, However, handouts may be given instead of texts. There is no additional charge for these handouts.
