Group coaching in “Art of development”
And all in all, it was magical. Art of development training is a magical opportunity to grow, learn and get more knowledge how to use coaching in practice.
This is a training course for people who seek self- development. Non- formal education and Kolb’s learning cycle were the basis of this training. Coaching methods for reflection and body movement for self- development were the main tools.
We had a chance to dig deeper to our bodies and minds: to feel it physically and to understand it consciously. We believe that to give others, first we need to be full: in those 9 days, we have recharged energy and lightened the inner fire that each participant brought in one or another form. Using body movement as a tool for personal development and using the benefits of coaching to reflect.
Let’s start from the beginning. To organize a training in the middle of the pandemics is challenging. We had to prepare precise action plan as well as be ready for some surprising circumstances. Anyway, 2 years of being in this situation prepared me and my team as well as and participants well: everything went smoother than expected.
From the first day, all the methods we chose were related to movement, arts and coaching: step by step, gently, without pushing too much. As usual, starting from ice breaking and team building activities, slowly getting to know each other, checking our limits and boundaries. Step by step, we moved deeper: to see how our bodies react to different emotions and what our minds tell us about it. I bet, participants sharing about their experience, can best describe it.
Feedback from clients
Miglė Galvonaitė from Lithuania „The writest“
“We had a week full of body, movement, touch, emotional practises and learning by experience in a villa surrounded by snow and forests close to Trakai city. I think it is the best way to get to know yourself and your surroundings better – through playfulness, experiment, reflections on what you experience and why it feels so. From the training I brought the feeling of belonging, the one I was looking for before and could not understand where and how to find it.“
Ilze from Latvia shared „Be present, to learn, support young people, open my heart to their pain and encourage! Laugh together, give and receive countless hugs! Never in my life before I’ve felt and spread so many hugs in so short time! Amazing! And yes, tears, tears and tears. We all were allowed to be as we are. I personally received invisible permission to be myself and permission to encourage youngsters to be themselves, encourage them to take risk, encourage them to speak, encourage them to perform and to move!“
