Human Design Academy

A wonderfully instructive and professional training! Barabara and her team have the ability to impart their knowledge of human design in a very caring and authentic way, so that I always felt that I was in good hands. You can tell that they have a great interest in imparting the knowledge in the best possible way and remain close to the original knowledge. The sharing sessions with the other group participants are incredibly valuable and helped me to internalize what I had just learned. I absolutely recommend it and look forward to further training at the Human Design Academy!

I completed the foundation course with Barbara and her great team and I am absolutely thrilled! Barbara is an outstanding teacher who manages with great skill to convey the exciting but sometimes complex content of Human Design in a captivating and inspiring way. Her passion for human design is infectious and I feel I have learned a lot about myself and my strengths. The atmosphere in the course was very positive and supportive, which is also due to Barbara's dedicated and competent team. I can wholeheartedly recommend Barbara and her team when it comes to learning human design. A big thank you for this valuable experience!

I have been looking for a course on the body and the environment for some time. I was therefore delighted that the Human Design Academy has now published a practical course on this. As with the course on the body and nutrition, Barbara goes through the topic in a structured and step-by-step manner, so that the content is very easy to follow, I think even for those who are still relatively new to human design. But if, like me, you've been around a little longer, you'll find new content that Barbara and Annick convey so wonderfully and that you can also observe directly in yourself.
I would like to thank the Academy for always offering new and exciting content.
So, highly recommended!

I can recommend the Human Design Academy without reservation. The courses are wonderfully prepared and Barbara and her team love what they do. You can tell. The original HD knowledge is imparted, which I find very important.
Thanks to the accompanying WhatsApp group, you can contact the mentors at any time with questions and don't have to wait until the next appointment. Keep up the good work!

I received a Human Design basic reading for my birthday, the session was conducted by Annick. I had already heard about Human Design, but had no clear ideas. I learned more about myself in this session than I ever expected. The statements are 100% accurate, provide clarity and contain deep insights about yourself. I can recommend this without reservation to anyone who wants to learn more about themselves - and Annick has a very beautiful, clear and empathetic way of conducting this session.

The book is very attractively designed and conveys the basics of human design in a very practical way. The exercises really get you involved in the experiment. I can recommend it to everyone to read and work with it.

Human design at the very highest level. Feeling, perceiving, recognizing and transforming...an experience that I would not want to miss again 😍 Thank you for this and I would love to do it again

The PTL 2 module of the IHDS certified analyst training was really next level in terms of depth and understanding of human design. There were two main topics and exam readings: composite analyses (partnerships, friendships, parent-child relationships, etc.) and cycle readings (Solar Return, Saturn Return, Uranus Opposition, Chiron Return). This was really about applying the knowledge we had gathered so far in different contexts. The lunar node meaning was added and so much reflection work in one's own experiment, which was very touching. In the practical exchange and the reading exercises, I really realized what we all already have up our sleeves! Barbara and her team are simply the very best companions on the way to becoming a professional! As always, the slides and handout materials were beautifully designed, informative and the knowledge was conveyed simply and in bite-sized chunks. It was so exciting and again so intimate what was shared in our wonderful group. I think it's so great how many of us go out, whether for ourselves or as coaches/analysts. It's a shame that so few men have ventured into the domain so far.
An absolute heartfelt recommendation!
I'm already looking forward to PTL 3! 😍

The Human Design live immersion was and is such a fascinating and indescribable experience for me. So profound and impressive. Deceleration, depth, closeness, trust, understanding, change, growth and self-awareness - these are the keywords that I associate with the immersion.
The lovingly designed room and the warm support from Barbara and her team made the immersion so unforgettable! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this great experience.

The training at the Human Design Academy is well-founded and very well structured.
As a person who likes to be in a hurry and would prefer to know everything immediately, I have learned during the training to be more patient, to enjoy the journey and to really put what I have learned into practice, both in my work with my clients and for myself. At the end of PTL 1, we have now come full circle and I am amazed at how much we have learned since the beginning of the training and how easy it is to integrate what we have learned.
The handouts that are available for many of the learning units are a great help in preparing my readings. The same goes for the many examples that Barbara and her team use to illustrate the energy of centers, channels and gates.
Anyone who is serious about their human design training is in excellent hands here!

"With great attention to detail, space for self-discovery and personal transformation"

"Discover your Human Design" by Barbara Peddinghaus is a wonderful workbook that is suitable for both beginners and advanced users of the Human Design System. Barbara has spanned the arc from deep knowledge to self-awareness in a clear, beautiful way.

With many practical examples, accessing the Human Design System becomes a journey to discover your unique talents and qualities. The book is not only full of knowledge, but is also beautifully designed and clearly structured.

Every page invites you to continue reading and to take a closer look at your own Human Design. It stays close to the origins of human design and I was absolutely thrilled by its details, its love of the subject and its depth.

Thank you dear Barbara for this wonderful book!

All the new terminology that comes with getting started in human design can be very overwhelming at the beginning and during the learning process. Barbara conveys the theory in a very practical and tangible way in all her courses. Now finally in her own book. I can wholeheartedly recommend it!
There are so many different practical pages with tips, to-do lists, reflection questions, copy templates, etc. in each chapter. This book is simply the perfect practical companion to the basic knowledge of Human Design to start directly with the contemplation and integration work. It is about getting to know and perceive yourself and your Human Design Chart with types, strategy, aura, authority and centers.
In addition, the design and layout are so lovingly designed and beautifully realized with many small details, which is very pleasing to my aesthetic eye!

The live immersion in April 2024 was indescribable. Not only because I met Barbara and the mentors, who have been with me for 4 years now, in person for the first time. But above all because I would never have thought that experiencing and feeling my human design knowledge would have slipped from my head into my body at such a deep level. Even though the content was primarily focused on the types and centers, many other individual Human Design aspects emerged that brought additional AHA moments to light. This complex system cannot be viewed in complete isolation. The science of differentiation produces highly individual body graphics that work as a whole.
I can not only recommend this self-perception/experience, I consider it essential in any human design training. No Zoom room in the world can make up for this experience! The knowledge level of the participants is irrelevant when it comes to feeling the energies. I was also deeply impressed by Barbara's work in this bodywork. She knew at every moment what was needed in this sensitive and yet so safe space, who needed more or less time in the exercises, at which point more or fewer words of the experience were needed. Hats off! The mentors also did a great job, in addition to holding the space, being there for the participants and the wonderful organization around it.
Anyone who knows Barbara knows that the apparent aesthetics and all the little details around it also resonate so lovingly, whether it's just the location and cuisine, the goodie bags, room design, lighting or music.
Once again, a huge thank you for this touching live event to Barbara, Annick, Bas, Marc, Honne, Melanie, Ulla and Jenny!

You will find many insights and answers to questions about yourself.
Clearly explained, lots of tips on how to promote your strengths and understand your weaknesses

It was extremely exciting and instructive. Many of my preferences were confirmed. A really very interesting course that I can only recommend.

Barbara's knowledge transfer is incomparable. Her respectful and appreciative way of imparting knowledge makes it fun and I have learned a lot about myself and others.

This book is my absolute favorite book on the subject of human design at the level of the most important teaching content, namely type, aura, strategy, authority and the centers in connection with one's own implementation. This book is an absolute must-have, it accompanies me on my way to becoming an HD analyst and I look at it again and again. In my experiment, I keep coming back to these basics in the jungle of details to reflect on how I can live my own design. It is so special for me because this book is simply alive, I can devote myself to questions for reflection and delve deeper into topics, and there are always links to in-depth content to listen to. As a result, I am getting more and more into myself and, above all, into the practical experience and implementation of my human design experiment in everyday life. The information is so beautifully prepared, structured and illustrated with so much attention to detail that my heart leaps whenever I open the book and continue working with it. Anyone who has this book can be sure that they are getting the original teachings, nothing has been watered down here, it is well-founded and has been tried and tested over the years! I highly recommend it to anyone who really wants to get to grips with their Human Design on a deep level and learn how to use this great experience tool for themselves, no matter where they are on their Human Design journey!

I have been on the journey with the Human Design Academy since 2021 and I am still thrilled with the Human Design Academy! The courses are incredibly well structured and provide an in-depth introduction to the world of human design. The mentors are extremely knowledgeable and very dedicated. They take the time to address individual questions and provide a supportive learning environment.

What particularly impresses me is the practical approach to teaching the content. Especially in this Business Mastery, it was very helpful for me to be able to work on these insights together in a really small group. We participants were also regularly given the opportunity to present our results to the group.

Theoretical concepts are explained clearly and comprehensibly and illustrated with numerous practical examples and exercises in the workbook. As a result, what we have learned is of course immediately applied and deepened.

I can recommend the Human Design Academy to anyone who wants to seriously engage with the original Human Design. Here you work intensively with the I Ching and the original texts. An absolute enrichment and an excellent investment in your own personal development!

With "Discover Your Human Design", Barbara Peddinghaus has created a human design fundamentals masterpiece that is both informative and inspiring. This book introduces its readers to the fascinating world of human design in a structured and insightful way. It explains in very understandable terms how to decode the uniqueness of one's personality.

Particularly noteworthy is the clarity and simplicity with which the author conveys the really complex and sometimes difficult-to-understand interrelationships of human design. Peddinghaus manages to "keep it simple" and translate the theory into practical applications. The reader is given tips on how human design can be implemented in everyday life and is given space for their own thoughts on specially designed pages. In addition, examples and suitable pictures illustrate the explanations and make it incredibly easy to understand your own Human Design Chart.

Another plus point is the author's writing style. Peddinghaus takes the reader by the hand and accompanies them on a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance. She encourages readers to recognize and use their own strengths and at the same time offers valuable insights for overcoming personal challenges. She repeatedly refers to the "experiment" and explains what might be functional or dysfunctional about it. This gives the reader a logical explanation of why a process of reflection can be helpful.

"Discover Your Human Design" is a valuable reference book for anyone who wants to better understand the basics of human design in all its contexts, delve deeper into their own being and develop their full potential. It is a book that you will pick up again and again to gain new insights and understand yourself better. An absolute must-read for anyone interested in personal development and self-knowledge in the field of human design.

If you are ready to jump, you can do so with this course. Life is change, movement and a change of perspective.
I was able to experience a high-quality course in the "Living Your Design course, which was well structured and yet left enough room for personal experience. The implementation was very professional (with mentors) and well-founded. Highly recommended for people who want to develop themselves further.
