“Heartbeat has become the central hub of our school.

We moved all of our courses — over 1000 lessons — onto Heartbeat and built space for our morning meet-ups and evening story-telling experiences.

It’s replaced almost all of our socials and become the place where our students truly feel at home.”
Danijel Salijevic
Founder of Reiki Dojo center
