The Vision Driving This Summer School

In the early days of the Enneagram, we were fortunate to be part of a global community of certified teachers in the Narrative Tradition, learning from Helen Palmer, Dr. David Daniels, and Peter O’Hanrahan, immersed in advanced courses and spiritual retreats.

Together, we explored, innovated, and applied this profound knowledge—growing both as individuals and as professionals working with the Enneagram. 

As much of today’s training moves online, we are committed to preserving this depth of learning and personal connection. While the number of Enneagram teachers is rapidly growing, much of the focus remains on the basics.

To keep the wisdom intact and powerful, we continue our work within the Enneagram Europe Summer School on-site, in-person and in-depth, offering those who are ready to invest in deeper knowledge the opportunity to explore and master this transformative work and be part of establishing and continuing a flourishing and supporting community.

At Enneagram Europe Summer School, learning goes beyond coursework—it’s about connecting in person with like-minded individuals. Live gatherings foster real conversations, new friendships, and a vibrant community that deepens each participant’s journey. These connections create a lasting network of support, inspiration, and shared commitment to the transformative power of the Enneagram.

Enneagram Europe is legally required to charge VAT (9 or 21%) to all EU residents. However, we are committed to ensuring fair participation for everyone. For this reason, Enneagram Europe absorbs the VAT instead of passing it on to you as required by law. This way the final price remains the same for all participants.

For organizations within the EU but outside the Netherlands, an invoice will be issued with 0% VAT under the reverse charge mechanism, upon request and provided a valid VAT number is supplied.

The standard ticket shop is designed for private participants outside the Netherlands/EU and for organizations within the EU (but outside the Netherlands). For these groups, a 0% VAT (reverse charge) rate applies.

To avoid confusion, we have created a separate ticket shop specifically for
organisations based in the Netherlands. Once you’ve made your purchase in this shop, we’ll provide an invoice for VAT-return.

Please ask us for the link to this ticket shop.

Can’t make it? We’ll be super sad to miss you—and for you to miss this amazing EnneaFest! Let us know as soon as possible, and if you cancel at least two weeks before the event, we’ll issue a full refund.

For all the details, check out our terms and conditions.

Details about transport and pickup services will be added in due time.

Please check back later or contact our support team if you have any immediate questions or specific needs.
