NVC Intermediate Course
September 18 @ 12:00 am - November 13 @ 11:59 pm CEST

About the Course
Embodying more and more NVC in everyday life is rather complex, as violence is the consciousness that surrounds me at home, work, and in the streets.
“Put me in a room full of violence and I’ll lose my compassion”.
To keep my nonviolent consciousness is key to have a community where I can go back to center it and cultivate it more deeply.
Course content
We are going to start polishing and de-rusting even more our NVC, so that it becomes more natural and authentic.
What you are gonna learn:
- Empathic listening: a layer deeper
- Street giraffe (how to speak NVC with everyone, moving “away” from the 4 steps)
- Vulnerable honesty: Peeling the layers of authenticity
- How to take decisions: The art of being torn
- Saying no
- How to transform guilt
- NVC apologies
- Guessing requests
The program might shift as I like to follow what’s alive and the unique learning curve of the specific groups I work with.
Learning style
Our focus is on the embodied aspect of NVC, so classes will not look like a seminar. To practice and integrate NVC, we implement a mixture of 30% theory and 70% interactive practices such as exercises, demonstrations, role plays, and processing of real-life situations emerging during the course. So, be ready to tackle your real life!

Number of participants
The number of attending participants can go from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 20. There might be one or more assistants joining us to support you on your very personal learning journey.
Price
The cost of the course is between 250 and 350 euros.
I offer a sliding scale as everyone has a different income and financial situation, and I intend to leave you as much as possible the freedom to contribute out of your means and free will.
The payment takes place in two steps:
1) A prepayment of 100 euros before the beginning of the course to reserve your spot
2) The completion of the payment one week before the end of the course, so that your payment comes from gratitude and not only from a sense of duty
About money
Money is my favorite strategy to care for the sustainability of my offerings. It’s very flexible and easy to direct towards what supports contributing to me, depending on the moment. Your contribution also supports a sense of mutuality in us.
At the same time, we are open to other possibilities if this one prevents you from joining. Please contact us if that’s the case.
Materials
At the end of every session, you will receive a summary of the main points touched during the session and a recording of the lesson (for viewing, not downloading), which will be available until 2 weeks after the end of the course.
Registration steps:
1) Read the terms and conditions (I know, I also never read them, but I would really love to be on the same page with you on this, to make sure we are both at choice). By registering, you agree and consent to them.
