What are NVC Dance Floors?
Jeff Brown leads Dance Floor workshop
This workshop will include spatial floor maps, made up of large cards placed on the floor in layouts called "dances" which people move throught to experience and integrate various NVC processes.

Note: This training does not involve expressive dancing. The work 'dance' is used as a metaphor. Learn more about the NVC Dance Floors here.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE NVC DANCE FLOORS

The Dance Floors have been greeted with great enthusiasm by many people around the world and have been translated into 6 languages.

"Participants express deep wonder and gratitude about how much depth nad clarity the work on the NVC Dance Floor gives to them"
--Gitte Brandenburg Carlsen, Denmark
Jeff teaching NVC

"Dancing on the dance floors is the exercise which I enjoy the most. While doing this dance I find it very easy to connect with my inner feelings and needs. As I move up and down the Dance Floor I can see the inner transformation taking place at every step. This tool helps me, not only to practise NVC but to 'LIVE' NVC. I must say that it has transformed my life. I am grateful to Bridget and Gina for coming out with such a beautiful technique...Keep dancing!"
--Aniruddha Gadankush, India

"I am realizing how different my understanding of NVC is and my way of sharing it with others since attending an NVC Dance Floor workshop over a year ago. It has been a huge gift for me. I continue to be amazed at the ease in which people move to great depth (really getting in touch with self) while using this process. And it gets you up and out of your seat! I use this in most all my trainings and am so thankful to have a more physical way to offer NVC."
--Cathy Artukovich, USA
