SPACE is designed to expand how we experience collective spaces.

WHO IT'S FOR:
SPACE is an integrative training for folks who facilitate, guide, coach, teach, and lead individuals and group gatherings such as classes, workshops, retreats, and experiential events.

WHAT'S IT ABOUT:
SPACE is centered on embodying holding space differently in community, wellness, connection, healing, intimacy, pleasure + play so that many identities, experiences, and needs can be held alongside the invitation for individual agency and safety.

WHAT INCLUDED:
SPACE includes 4 live group sessions, an online portal of resources, and guided integrative group practices. The sessions will include discussions + somatic exercises centering expanding how we create containers and design classes, workshops, sessions, and retreats.

WHAT IT IS NOT:
SPACE is not an educational or professional training on trauma. This is a series for active learning around space holding in a trauma informed way. Because of this, we will not deep dive into the studies of trauma in an academic manner. We will topically review high level points on trauma + stress, but each attendee is responsible for navigating deeper learning in a way that aligns for their path.

This multi-part series is for humans dedicated to facilitating blended wellness spaces in ways that cultivates safety through an intersectional body-centered approach.

ABOUT THE SERIES:

SPACE is a container for intentionally learning, unlearning, relating, reciprocity, and evolutionary integration for humans who hold space across a variety of professions.

Through this series, we aim to:

• Gain a deeper connection and reflection with how to hold space differently with integrity

• Expand perspectives, care, and tools in support of groups of people

• Build a standard of care for facilitation in group and 1:1 sessions that amplifies congruency throughout the spaces we occupy and the larger collective

• Strengthen the ways we create a shared sense of safety for our local and global collective communities

• Increase the ways our facilitation empowers people to seek support, connection, and build community

• Share knowledge in how to enable others to design their own embodied sense of safety each time they enter into a room

• Decrease the need for guardedness, fear, or defense that can arise in wellness spaces, especially when bringing together a variety of identities, lived experiences, and cultural beliefs

DETAILS & WHAT TO EXPECT:

SPACE will will meet every other week for the duration of your series. There will be prep & reflection work, group circles, and a group chat for connection and support.

SPACE is designed as a somatically centered training. The presence of each individual for each session is important for learning and integration. During each session, we will reflect on the prep work, review the session topic, and practice body-centered and hands on techniques to integrate the information at hand.
