Integral Transformative Practice (ITP) co-founders George Leonard and Michael Murphy believed each of us possesses a “vast, untapped potential to learn, to love, to feel deeply, and to create.” Inspired by this belief, they laid the groundwork for a transformative program that would awaken us to our true and full potential.
Esalen Institute became the seedbed for their ideas in the 1960s, and would serve as the foundation for ITP’s integral and long-term approach. From the initial experiments at Esalen, to the first official practice group founded in 1992, ITP continues to evolve to help practitioners achieve long-term goals for realizing positive and healthy transformation of body, mind, heart and soul.
Officially incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in 2005, ITP International (ITPI) acts as a steward to advance the education and research of the practice, as well as offer ongoing support to our ITP members on this transformative journey.
