A lived community experience

This is more than just a residential training - we will be living and learning NVC together, in community with the support of 4 certified trainers.

Grounded in the Nonviolent Communication (NVC) paradigm developed by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, this 5-day immersion offers a dedicated space to bring peace into your inner life and embody it within a vibrant community.

NVC will move off the page and into practice, giving you room to transform automatic communication habits, integrate core principles, and experience what happens when a group chooses to live compassionately together.

Diverse learning

Four trainers coming from very different contexts and backgrounds will bring you their own experience, a wide variety of real learning situations, and their own way of living NVC.

They share it with you through:

• Interactive exercises
• Case studies
• Personal stories
• Together, they give you a multi-dimensional understanding of the NVC framework.

Whether you're brand new to NVC or have years of practice, this training meets you where you are.

🌱 Tools to say what you really mean - without attacking or shutting down
