Since 1990 Maureen J. W. Turner has worked with master consciousness teachers doing experiential psychospiritual work in the U.S.   She has studied extensively with various Jungian analysts at the C. G. Jung Institute in Evanston, Illinois and completed Gay Luce's Nine Gates Mystery School, a program meant to simulate the mystery schools of the ancient world.   She is certified in the Body Centered Transformation work of Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks and has trained with Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone in Voice Dialogue (Shakti Gawain stated in an interview in Magical Blend that in her opinion the Stones had created the most impressive methods of getting in touch with our inner parts, a process necessary for advancing in consciousness).   She has worked extensively with Dr. Jack Miller, a Jungian analyst and creator of the Phoenix Project, an intensive program for healing grief and loss.   She has studied the Enneagram with Helen Palmer, Don Riso and Russ Hudson, and with Tom Condon and is a certified teacher in the Enneagram of Transformation work created by Kathy Hurley and Theodorre Donson.  She has also worked with many different Awareness Through Movement (Feldenkreis) teachers.

Maureen considers Ron Roth (whom she sometimes refers to as her "Holy Spirit Guru") and Agnes Sanford, the Christian mystic, as most important in directing her to her present path.   At least once a year Maureen travels to the U.S. to work with teachers that she feels to be right for her in advancing her own work.  This year she plans to do the Hoffman Quadrinity Process, as well as continuing her enneagram studies.

Ken Turner became interested in esoteric subjects as a boy of 10 reading his aunt’s astrology magazines.   This interest paralleled his fascination with science until graduate school when it became necessary to concentrate on physics, his professional specialty.   After earning his doctorate in physics and doing post-doctoral work in radio astronomy, he turned again to his long-standing metaphysical interests in 1968, working with groups following the Western esoteric traditions as formulated by the Golden Dawn, a group which appeared in England toward the end of the 19th century.   He also began to read the collected works of Carl Jung, P. D. Ouspensky, and Maurice Nicoll.   The latter two authors led him to contact with fourth way groups in Argentina and in the Washington DC area where he has been associated with Hugh Ripman's FOCAS groups since 1973.

Ken has been certified at the Master level in the Body Centered Transformation techniques of Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks, and is authorized to teach the Enneagram personality development approach of Kathy Hurley and Theodorre Donson.   Now retired, he has lived and worked in Puerto Rico for 22 years.
