Testimonials

“Joining the 2 months of the Joy Study with Flynn was very inspiring, and I left it wishing for more. Flynn is not only an excellent listener, but also highly skilled in supporting other people making sense of their own thoughts, in asking questions, in holding open spaces. He has this genuine and heartfelt interest for people. I also deeply admire his ability of fishing the essence of highly complex ideas and presenting it in clear language. If you work with him, you will get high commitment, high quality material and precious insights on mundane and on deep topics of life. I am thankful that we crossed paths, Flynn, and look forward to keep on practicing and learning with you!”

Mariana Hilgbert

“Studying with Flynn is like how university should be, because he doesn’t just give you information, but supports you in cultivating wisdom. He provides you with a learning environment where you can grow and find your own answers. If you really want to dive into topics deeply and learn something for yourself, do it - but be ready because you’ll have to put in effort. So, a big recommendation.”

“Man is more himself when joy is the fundamental thing in him, and grief the superficial.” — G.K. Chesterton

The next Joy Study Teacher Training begins on January 24th 2026.

  • Because Movement & Psychology has no governing body, the certificate will not qualify you for positions, as a degree would. The purpose of the certificate is to signal professional development and incentivise completion of the course. Upon passing all of the assignments, you will earn a personalised certificate token that you can choose to display.

  • The actual course lasts for six months, but you will have an additional 12 months to complete all of the assignments.

  • After the course finishes, you will be able to reach out for help and advice through the Discord forum or contact Flynn directly for an inexpensive call. You will retain access to the course material for life.

  • The course requires 3-6 hours of work per week, including exploring interventions, listening to lectures, participating in Q&A’s, submitting assignments and engaging in feedback & general conversations on the online forum. All lectures and Q&A’s are recorded for your convenience.

  • The total investment is 1100 EUR, with a 15 day refund policy available - excluding a non-refundable deposit of 183.33 EUR.
