The Authentic Facilitator Level 1 is a romp through all our favorite Authentic Relating Games and flows, along with an exploration of the magic that makes them work. We’ll play through AR Games flows around Curiosity, Presence, Shadow Work, and more - and throughout it all, we’ll develop your ability to see these flows through a facilitator lens.Â
This class focuses on connection, play, and Jedi-level insight. Expect lots of breakouts, discussions, and opportunities to lead.Â
