3834 - Enneagram: Personal Growth & All About “Arrows” (Tony Holmes)
Course Description
Instructor: Tony Holmes
This class builds on the prerequisite Part 1 (offered multiple times during 2024-2027) “Introduction to the Enneagram” class. It moves beyond simply knowing your “type” to using the Enneagram as a practical tool for self-improvement … across emotional, intellectual, and social dimensions. You’ll learn key steps for growth, including expanding self-awareness, addressing ego patterns that keep you “stuck,” and making positive changes to realize your potential. In an informal, interactive group setting, you’ll explore how to apply core Enneagram elements (type, wings, centers, and levels of development) to create balance, overcome challenges, and strengthen underdeveloped qualities.
Importantly, we’ll dive deep into how we all can both negatively and positively use our natural path “arrows” or “connected types,” while explaining and demystifying common misunderstandings of “arrow” theory. Finally, we’ll address type-specific growth traps that block progress toward meeting your needs, values, and purpose.
