Testimonials
What past participants have to say.
Felicity Hart
"Sarah embodies the principles of Nonviolent Communication and this flows seamlessly into her role as teacher. As a student, I felt safe and challenged simultaneously. I loved the feeling and have been inspired to learn and grow more. Thank you.”
Talli Pachter
"Sarah and Nic are masterful at holding courses and truly listening in to their participants, leading to lots of AH HA moments. The online course has been an excellent way to learn this new connective language - once you learn it you can’t unlearn it!"
Jacqueline du Plessis
Studying and learning from Nic and Sarah is empowering. I feel very seen, heard and understood. I have gained so much clarity from their insights and perspectives. They have a gift for teaching and sharing the wisdom of NVC which they both embody.
FAQ's
Is there a prerequisite to joining this course?
Yes, you need to have completed our NVC Foundation course or a minimum of 10 hours of training with a CNVC trainer.
Will I need to attend all the sessions?
We have a strong preference that participants attend every session, for a number of reasons:
- The sessions build on each other and missing a session may make participating in the exercises challenging.
- The presence of all participants contributes to group safety, motivation, building trust and community.
Are live calls recorded?
YES, the sessions will be recorded. The process week sessions and break-out room exercises will however not be recorded. The recordings will be uploaded to the course platform and will be exclusively available for the participants in the group.
Will these recordings be shared elsewhere?
YES and NO. We reserve the right to share the audio and video of the trainers on platforms of our choosing. We will not include any audio or video of participants without the express consent of the person.
Can I access the course once the live sessions are complete?
You will have access to the course materials for life, or until we decide to stop doing the work that we do. You will, however, only have access to the video recordings of the live sessions in your course for 60 days after your course ends.
What if I miss a session?
Although we do request a strong commitment to being at each session, life happens and you may need to miss a meeting. If you miss a session, you can catch up on what you missed by viewing the recording. You will unfortunately miss the opportunity to practice and experience the methods for yourself.
