What is an IIT?
“Nonviolent Communication training shows people how to create peace within themselves and at the same time how to create connections with other people that allows compassionate giving to take place naturally” Marshall B. Rosenberg, Phd
The IIT is a unique gathering which offers an extraordinary opportunity to come together in an international residential community over 9 days with the explicit intention to engage within a compassionate paradigm. It is an immersion in the skills and consciousness of nonviolent communication, offering experiences and learning from each other as well as the trainers and team supporting the IIT.
People with Families?
Woodbrooke, the IIT hosts ~a family group of three generations ~ and the trainer team are delighted to be open to welcome people who, to make it possible to join us, would need or wish to bring children with them. We are all confident from our previous experiences that younger ones will contribute to our community life together, we are also confident that the focus and integrity of the IIT will be maintained.
Preparation for the IIT
We will be offering sessions for a range of people who all have differing experiences in relation to NVC. We do suggest that before attending you look at the basic introduction to NVC, either reading Marshall’s book, “Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life” or to watch the sessions now available via YouTube of Marshall offering a two day introduction to NVC found HERE
Learning environment
To provide you with a choice of learning opportunities there will often be multiple simultaneous topics offered by different trainers for you to chose which topic is most relevant for your learning . Anyone who has not previously received any formal NVC training is encouraged to begin the IIT with the foundation sessions that will be offered.
We will of course be learning all the time, in all the informal moments as well as within any structured sessions and you are invited to keep asking questions and exploring. There will be a range of large group and small group activities, time for self-connection and reflections, encouragement to listen to yourself and what you might do that could most serve you as an individual during the 9 days.
