The BayNVC Immersion Program: 8-month NVC Intensive
with Oren Jay Sofer & Roxy Manning
FEbruary - september, 2022
Nonviolent Communication is about more than what you say.
It’s about developing internal resources to realize our potential and live in line with our values. It’s about showing up authentically and compassionately in all circumstances, learning to care more fully for ourselves and for others, and transforming moments of immobility and helplessness into experiences of power and choice.
The Immersion Program offers training to:
Transform recurring conflicts
Enhance your ability to support others
Find more balance and clarity with your own “triggers”
Shift areas of your life that seem stuck
Deepen your capacity for listening and empathy
Build community focused on nonviolence
““A life changing experience. Oren and Roxy are, hands down, two of the best facilitators I have ever experienced (who complement each other beautifully). I came away inspired and equipped with powerful and effective tools for supporting interactions... Lastly, many of the connections I made with my cohort have continued long past the training. I am glad and grateful for being a member of this new community.””
About the Program
The BayNVC Immersion Program (BIP) supports participants to deepen their understanding and embodiment of key principles and applications of Nonviolent Communication. It begins with the four day online Living Peace Retreat, January 20-23, 2022, and continues with eight monthly weekend workshops. (Though not required, most participants attend the retreat. You must register separately for this retreat.)
BIP attracts a range of NVC practitioners: those who are relatively new as well as more experienced students, including alumni of BayNVC’s Leadership Program and previous Immersion Programs. Participants find great value in the continuity of the monthly meetings and the opportunity to learn and grow in a lively community. Please download and read our info packet here before applying.
““BIP has been life changing! I’ve learned skills that have helped me develop deeper self-awareness, express myself more authentically, and connect more compassionately with others. I have so much gratitude for Roxy and Oren, the assistants and this wonderful community!” ”
