What Makes Our European Approach Different

Learning ThroughCo-Creation

Teachers serve as facilitators, inviting dialogue where every voice matters and new insight emerges together.

Practice inthe Moment

We don’t talk about The Work — we do it. Each session responds to what’s alive now, within a flexible outline that allows real presence.

A Devoted Field, Not a Marketplace

A gathering of practitioners rooted in sincerity and shared inquiry — a space held, not performed, for genuine transformation.

SEE WHAT HAPPENS EACH DAY

The Experience — What Happens When We Gather

The room fills with curiosity, presence, and laughter.

Elders and newcomers, teachers and students — learning from one another.

Three days unfold as a rhythm of dialogue, stillness and movement — woven with shared meals, music and moments that stay with you long after.

Your Journey — Day by Day

Each day balances learning, reflection and connection.

Honouring the Lineage — Evolving the Work.

Since 2004, Enneagram Europe has been home to Narrative and Transformative Enneagram teaching, rooted in the work of Helen Palmer & Dr David Daniels. We continue that living tradition of presence-based learning.

At Enneagram Europe we do not talk about The Work; we do The Work.

What Others Say

Wise, Warm and Welcoming

"Jeanette creates a warm, inclusive community where everyone feels seen, valued and inspired. The programme is beautifully designed, blending teaching, group work and embodied practice, while Jeanette’s wise and humble facilitation transforms learning into a deeply engaging experience. It’s rare to find a space so free from competition, yet so rich in connection, curiosity and growth."

— Christine A., USA,

Leadership & Empowerment Coach

Love to Return Again and Again

“I can’t believe it’s already been eight weeks—time has flown, yet I find myself reliving those beautiful moments again and again. First and foremost, I want to express how deeply welcoming the vibe was. The place was truly magical, and the overall spirit radiated love, openness, and acceptance. We were there to leave everything behind and dive deep within ourselves."

— Maha K., Saudi Arabia

Participants from 15 countries in 2025.

YES, I'LL JOIN IN 2026

Hi,

In the past, ongoing learning for Enneagram teachers in Europe was nourished by Helen Palmer & dr. David Daniels’ yearly visits. Those gatherings became a living community and lifelong friendships that shaped the work here.

With the first Enneagram Europe Summer School Retreat in 2025, we rekindled that spirit—a space for continued growth, connection and inspiration.

If you're here, something has called you. Trust it.

Looking forward welcoming you too in 2026!
