A week-long intensive “train the trainer” workshop

Nonviolent Communication is so much more than a theory to be mastered. It is something to be lived and used, rather than to only be talked about.
General info
Nonviolent Communication is so much more than a theory to be mastered. It is something to be lived and used, rather than to only be talked about. NVC contain some very practical principles and tools that can be used in all communication between humans. These tools can be practiced and honed but they are not the goal. Connection is the goal. Most of the parameters in an interaction can only be guessed at beforehand. Every moment of connection has parts that are unique and that is what makes it challenging but also fun and alive. One part of walking your talk when it comes to NVC is to shift from performing to relating. Another thing is to focus on connection before focusing on correction.
Sharing NVC is learning to “dance this dance”.

Tools and exercises to share NVC with others.
