Restorative Circles allow individuals and communities to establish connection, discover meaning and recover power on profound levels. They create a forum for reaching agreements that help sustain effective and nurturing relationships both personally and within society.
Circles have developed within the RJ (Restorative Justice) movement, which in recent decades has adapted ways for communities to promote responsibility and healing. Rethinking justice, and engaging to consciously build whole-system responses to people’s well-being, has opened up revolutionary possibilities for furthering a culture of peace.
Restorative Training
June 3rd, the first evening, is gratis and open to all friends & families: an intro to 5 pre-requisites for creating RC in communities.
The next 3 days dynamically explore the key assumptions underlying the RC model which Dominic Barter has been sharing all over Brazil for years.
Participants may experience loosening of closed ideas, uncovering of human motives behind painful choices and discovery of effective strategies to meet pressing needs. They will partake first-hand in the RC process, with step-by-step integration of both RC & NVC skills.
NVC is a skill which affirms that we, human beings, share common, universal values (such as needs for community and respect), as well as a desire to see these needs met. By focusing on these shared values, and then moving on to strategies, there can be found solutions which are more satisfying, empowering and sustainable.
NVC is based on the premise that each of us can access our remarkable inner resources if we are given empathy, and that we all fare much better if we know how to do this in collaboration.

Restorative Training
These two days dynamically deepen the key assumptions underlying the RC model which Dominic Barter has long been sharing all over America.
They are the next steps to developing the skills required to facilitate an RC after participating in a 3-day Intro. Because everyone comes from a different background and level of expertise, Dominic recommends a total of 9 days of training in this particular model of facilitation. Participants will learn to hone their awareness of group dynamics and they will specifically evolve:
° Deep clarity around the whole process and each of its steps,
° Self-awareness and self-care,
° Co-facilitation with other people,
° Flexibility and creativity,
° Interrupting and focusing to track meaning,
° Staying connected with the RC intention throughout, while skilfully intervening in a group,
° Empathic listening and guessing,
° Making clear observations,
° Identifying a doable action plan within a specific time frame.
This 2-day experience will be highly interactive with demonstration, practice, individual coaching and group debriefing of each step.
