“The communication dojo has been truly impactful on my life. I was surprised at how small tweaks in communication can change the course of a conversation and even a relationship. I would recommend this to anyone looking to make improvements in communication. My most notable progress has been with my husband, so I especially recommend it to couples.” ~ Chelsea K. , San Francisco
Course Description
JOIN US AT THE COMMUNICATION DOJO WEEKLY PRACTICE SESSION TO IMMERSE YOURSELF IN NONVIOLENT COMMUNICATION AND TO WORK ON REAL CHALLENGES FROM YOUR LIFE
*
Communication Dojo Unleashed
Integrating new communication habits usually takes some practice, just like learning and integrating most other skills.
Our practice sessions let you connect with others who want to practice Nonviolent Communication (NVC) to strengthen their existing skills and/or learn new skills.
Our rotating team of coaches are there to help you with the exercises and answer your questions along the way.
We hope you will increase your capacity for self-reflection, your ability to hear others without getting defensive, and your proficiency in communicating what’s most important for you to communicate.
We don’t just want you to understand the skills, we want you to be able to access them when you most need them…
Who’s it for?
Everyone from first-timers to those very experienced with NVC can benefit from more practice.
You can attend with someone you already know and want to practice with, or just show up on your own.
If you’re not immediately ready to practice you can watch demonstration videos or observe while others practice.
We provide a growing mix of exercises to choose from, so you can pick a specific skill to work on.
Exercises
Here’s our current set of practice exercises.

About the Trainers
About Newt Bailey – Lead Trainer
Newt’s passion is to help people connect, to experience greater intimacy, and to find the potential for mutually satisfying change that lies within conflict. He is also convinced that personal growth and change in consciousness is essential if we’re to bring about the changes we want to see in our communities and our world.
Since he started studying NVC in 2005 Newt has set out to understand and share with others the essential core of NVC. He believes strongly in teaching the principles of NVC in a way that frees students from specialized language, and allows facility with connected communication to grow in small, quickly assimilated steps. The Communication Dojo is both a place where Newt teaches the NVC practices, skills and awareness he uses in his own life, and also a place where Newt introduces his newest teaching tools, resources and ideas.
Since 2006 Newt has been facilitating NVC groups, leading workshops and retreats, and developing his unique approach in public and organizational settings. Newt also attributes great steps in his personal understanding of NVC to working with prisoners and parolees. He has taught NVC, NVC mediation and NVC coaching across the USA and in Europe.
