Opening Workshop:

Exploring Your Hidden Talents

Tucson's Original Three-Month Intensive Paranormal Awareness Workshop

After two years of research, we at ASSC have developed an intense class that encompasses many aspects of the paranormal, from Remote Viewing to Paranormal Investigations, from Psychics to Mediums. Our students not only learn about the different research specialties existing in this field, they are also exposed to rigorous testing in a variety of areas, such as psychometry, controlled readings, precognition, & many more. This is to gain hands-on experience with methodological testing procedures, & to verify whether the students themselves may have any supra-ordinary abilities.

This Workshop also addresses the opening of your spirit, focusing on meditations & self-healing. Our class sizes are kept small, encouraging a safe & comfortable environment where everyone involved can share & bond, clearing the way for a healthier outlook to develop. ASSC is very serious about helping those of you with an interest in the paranormal to find your niche, & for those of you who feel you may possess supra-ordinary abilities, we offer a place wehre you can feel safe about freely sharing & exploring your experiences with a group of open-minded & supportive others who understand.

ASSC is also very rigorous, & we uphold the scientists' motto of letting the facts speak; therefore, all of our students participate in controlled trial experiments. These are the same tests of experience & ability which have been performed for over fifty-five years by past researchers in the field. We do not Certify everyone; we only Certify those who prove beyond a reasonable doubt under controlled observational conditions that they possess supra-ordinary skills.

This class will provide you with an overview of the paranormal field, and you will gain hands-on experience in performing & participating in controlled experiments to test for psychic, medium, remote viewing, precognition, & other supra-ordinary abilities. You will also participate in a full paranormal investigation, applying the same methodology as developed and used by Lost Souls Paranormal Investigations. You will learn about different meditation techniques that will help you heal & learn about yourself, & you will have a safe & comfortable atmosphere in which to do this.

This Workshop Provides:

  • A comprehensive exploration of your inherent paranormal gifts;
  • Instruction in, & control of, these gifts;
  • An overview of past & present parapsychological research;
  • Qualified participants may be Certified by ASSC.
  • Classes conclude with a "hands on" investigation of a reportedly Haunted Hotel!

Healing Hands Workshop:

The power & beauty of touch

Full details to be posted when we finalize & schedule this workshop.

An in-depth class on healing, using a new approach & method developed by ASSC.

ASSC has done research for the past two years on the best way for healing to take place. We have created a new healing method which not only provides effective reprieve from the pain a chronic sufferer feels, but also continues after the initial healing session is over. We will teach this interactive model during this workshop. This class runs for three months & one week, meeting twice per week.

This class is an intensive workshop that teaches using a five-phase system:

  • Phase one of the class will cover anatomy & physiology, & will include tests & quizzes;
  • Phase two will cover the student, the reasons for why they believe they possess healing energy & how they interpret & deal with this energy;
  • Phase three covers meditation techniques that will be conducive and geared towards the healer & their subject.
  • The fourth & fifth phases of the class will involve using the techniques taught to begin the testing & practice phases for healers;
  • Qualified participants may be Certified by ASSC.

Teresa Ortiz will be leading this Workshop. She has practiced healing for many years & has licenses in Yoga & Reiki, & has a background in nursing & nutrition.

$###.00 registration fee per person, per Workshop term.

Initiation to Magick

Full details to be posted when we finalize & schedule this workshop.

We have designed this class for the individual who has always been curious about magick, but does not know where to begin. This class provides a basic working knowledge of magick for the beginner, & we have based the class on learning by experience. The students will be able to learn about the concepts & foundation of magick as well as participate in hands-on projects on how to create & maintain magickal spells.

We have divided the Initiation to Magick classes into three phases:
  • Phase one, which consists of three classes, focuses on the basic concepts behind magickal practice, including the Principle of Intention and the Golden Rule.
  • Phase two also consists of three classes & is concerned primarily with the foundation of magickal practice, such as the Circle, the Elements and the Planets.
  • The final phase encompasses magick in practice. These four classes will cover everything from The Power of the Written Word to Candle Magick to Meditative Magick.

Patience Robinson will be leading this Workshop; she has been practicing magick for fourteen years.

$###.00 registration fee per person, per Workshop term.


Hidden Talents Series - Advanced Workshops

Potential Advanced Workshop participants who have not yet taken our initial Opening Workshop are subject to an in-depth, private interview lasting approximately three to four hours, in order to determine eligibility for our Advanced classes. Not every applicant may be admitted to our Advanced Workshops. Qualified participants may be Certified by ASSC.


Advanced Medium Workshop

We have created this class for those whom ASSC has already Certified as a Mental and/or Physical Medium. This class is also available to those who have been a practicing Medium, & who feel that they have successfully opened and want to become Certified by ASSC & interact with those who understand and use their Mediumistic talents. This class has a limited number of openings due to the intensity of the class curriculum. Class discussions & exercises will focus on readings & investigative procedures for the Medium. This class runs three months & one week, meeting once per week.

Advanced Psychic Workshop

After working with the Awakening Spirit Workshop for the past two years, we have decided to provide a class for those who have completed our Opening Workshop & have been Certified by ASSC as a Psychic Feeler/Knower and/or as a Telepath, to continue with a more in-depth & focused curriculum to met their specific needs. This class is also designed with the professional Psychic in mind. For many, they feel they have completed their initial opening on their own & have worked as a practicing Psychic for a number of years and would like to be tested & Certified, but who feel they are at a more advanced level. We have kept this class small in order to promote an interactive class atmosphere. In addition, this class will allow all involved to re-connect or improve their connection with their guides & with themselves. We have geared the class curriculum only towards Psychic experiences & the psychology behind them. This class runs for three months, meeting once per week.

This class will provide you with:

  • An overview of past & current research that is focused on & about Psychics;
  • Advanced opening techniques for Psychics;
