What Our Members Say About RCI’s Singles Relationship Coach Training Program
I’ve been a member of Relationship Coaching Institute for a year now, and I am most impressed, it far exceeds my expectations. The instructors, the mentors, the labs, the classes and all the many, many materials provided, all are excellent. I love the way that the training – in addition to providing the theory of coaching singles – gives the opportunity for lots of practice, and also addresses the business side so I can enroll clients and set up my successful coaching business.
The cost to enroll in RCI seems to me to be very reasonable considering everything that is included, it is an investment in myself and in my future. My RCI membership will enable me to create my very successful singles coaching business. The course is amazing, and I am so grateful to be doing it.
“What I liked most about the class was the clear focus and direction of the materials and the excellent leadership of the facilitators. The energy from the group was the most powerful aspect of this training. It has helped me to create so much in my life.”
“I really love using this program with my single clients and have seen some of them go on to create really wonderful and conscious relationships — so I thank you for your part in my being able to help people find their life partner. This has always been a passion of mine and the Conscious Dating program is a wonderful vehicle for that passion. Many thanks for all the wonderful resources you so generously share with all of us. Congratulations on your book and the wonderful legacy you are creating.”
“Relationship Coaching Institute’s Conscious Dating program increases self-awareness. As an RCI-Certified Relationship Coach, I feel grateful to have effective tools to coach clients through the process of getting clear about the life and the life partner they truly desire. The Conscious Dating prorgram brings the power of self-knowledge and the spirit of possibility back into the search for a life partner.”
“This program was very powerful for me. Although I have always viewed myself as pretty self-aware, I now have new insights about what I need in a relationship that will guide me to choose a good match for me. And the idea of screening potential partners for my requirements BEFORE the first date is a liberating concept. I feel sure I will save myself a lot of energy and move more quickly to finding my life partner.”
“Your materials work! I have been a successful single for the last few months, doing my own things and bingo it happens! The man I envisioned has arrived into my life. Thanks for all your wisdom.”
“Training with RCI is top notch. Faculty and class members are skilled in multiple areas offering a depth and richness to each session that is unparalled. Trainings may be repeated layering additional depth and richness into ones expertise each and every time.”
“The Singles 1 class through RCI was one of the best professional training classes I’ve ever taken. Other distance classes can feel lonely, but this class was the perfect size to really get to know all the classmates and the teachers. The lab component was KEY to really putting the principles we were taught to use. The combination of knowledge and practice I’ve gained from this class make me much more confident in my abilities as a relationship coach.”
“Teresea Jones makes it easy to wade into what seems like a deep stream of material and concepts. She knows how to guide the wandering into productive explorations. And her demonstration coaching is a very welcome verification that she walks her talk!”
“Tereasa Jones is a spectacular trainer! She genuinely desires each student to learn as much as possible and provides a warm and supportive learning environment. Tereasa is the consummate professional and an incredible asset. A wonderful experience!”
“I used the Singles 3: Conscious Dating Attraction course mainly to follow along with the Conscious Dating principles as I am dating for marriage. Singles 2 along with implementing Singles 3 allowed me to quickly find a marriage minded guy with my online profile and we had sent each other our Perfect Day along with all our Requirements, Wants and Needs by date 3. During the coaching practices I uncovered a pattern of mini marriages and helped me draw boundaries through requirements coaching that got me the result above. Singles 2 and 3 was a blast to implement in real life!”
