In each 3-hour session, Holly teaches the concepts and demonstrates the skills within the context of the large group.  She also convenes the large group at the end of each session for debriefing, homework assignments and closing.

Holly is joined by members of the Apprenticeship Circle to coach participants in the break-out portion of each session.  This one-on-one coaching leads to rapid integration of the skills introduced in the large group.
