A. Approximately how many training days did you have this year?: 
115
B. Briefly list the groups and organizations you worked with this year as a trainer.: 

Regularly I worked with open groups in Hungary, Romania, Poland, Slovakia, Portugal and Russia. In Hungary I have started to work with teachers and to train them how to support their students to become NVC based peer mediators. So far we have one school where this is practiced with great success in two schools. I worked wit social workers as well.

C. Approximately how many people did you offer NVC training to this year?: 
650
D. What are you celebrating about your training experiences this year? What was significant for you? What touched your heart?: 

My main celebration is to be able to manage to live a descent life while I am sharing my heart. As deep as I am able at this moment. In the school where I worked with the teachers and the children to support the children to be able to serve as NVC based peer mediator, I did some work with their parents as well. And some of the parents who were so scared to come back to school and to learn, when they expressed their appreciations, how much they liked it.

E. Would you share some difficult experiences you had while training this year and how you handled them?: 

I have experience to work with open groups and when I started to offer introductions in schools, where teachers were told to come, and being in that often not so supportive energy was a great challenge for me. When I have 30 people for one hour, there is not much time for verbal empathy, but I tried my best to be prepared with an open heart and to resonate acceptance and care toward them even if they were tired and overwhelmed to stay in school for one more hour.

F. How do you teach the spiritual basis of Nonviolent Communication in your workshops and training programs? : 

In my understanding, love is the energy to hold together the universe. And our goal is to be more and more often in this energy. It is not so important what I am doing, but does this come from a deep loving place from my heart? Or do I act out of fear?

G. Please describe your social change goals...: 

To care for the unborn as well as the already living ones. I can fully meet my need for food only when everyone on this planet goes to sleep having enough food.

H. Please describe your efforts to create, or join, an NVC circle or organization.: 

The previous years, I have put much more efforts, but I can not say with great success. So 2010 was more my rest year to regain excitement or at least willingness to continue.

But I still made efforts to start an NVC community in Russia, to support the local NVC people in Slovakia, Portugal, Iran, Poland, Romania and of course in Hungary.

I. Summarize participants’ evaluations, and how their feedback resulted in new learning or growth for you this past year.: 

I become more and more aware people remember more to what they have said not what they have learnt. I started to work with much younger people, as far as age 6-10. It was a great challenge and supper learning for me how to relate to them and how to capture their attention for more than 3 minutes.

J. What are your current growing edges or challenges as a trainer that you will be working on in the future?: 

To be able to express myself in writing and I am still struggling with the flow of administration.

K. If you found opportunities to work with other trainers this year, please share the most meaningful experiences for you.: 

A different rhythm can work as well. But the main learning was how to speak in a way children age 6-10 can be with me .

L. Is there anything else you would enjoy sharing with the CNVC network?: 

Feels super exciting to be done with this report and even if I have many problems with this community there is no other where I wold like to join. So thank you for each and every one of you even if you were a support or a challenge.
