Robin was the special guest at the Australian Labyrinth Network Conference in Canberra in March. Being a recently formed network, the ALN was holding their 3rd annual conference and decided to have an Australian special guest this time rather than invite someone from overseas. The second step in the process of creating Ceremonies It was a fabulous conference and Robin’s workshop on ‘Facilitating Ceremony, Ritual and Transformation with the Labyrinth’ was very well received. It took people through nine steps of creating Ceremony and encouraged people to bring more ceremony into their Labyrinth facilitated walks. She also used The Sacred Union Labyrinth as an example of the progression through the steps and how following them builds a solid and powerful plan to hold more free flowing and spontaneous facilitation with a group. Robin, together with Mark Healy, created a Ceremonial Labyrinth, the circular version of the Sacred Union Labyrinth, and …

“I gained so much from the dynamic groups and facilitation workshop. Robins approach to teaching is both engaging and heartfelt, so that learning is embodied and is a true testament of walking her talk. She teachers leaders how to lead, by actually leading by example!

We’re repeating Shannon’s great feedback and story as we made a typo of her name a couple of Blogs and eNewsletters ago. Sorry Shannon. Love your work amazing women. “Robin’s Dynamic Groups Creative Facilitation course has inspired and energised me to deliver even better training and professional development for the Aquatic industry.   I present courses and professional development have always done things a bit “differently” for example cross crawling and playing my ukulele. The creative processes we learned throughout the course have grown my toolbox exponentially!

Several places have become available in Robin’s next ‘Dynamic Groups, Dynamic Learning’ six day Creative Facilitation, Teacher Training and Group Leadership course. People booked into three of the four available special cost price/scholarship places have cancelled or postponed for various reasons and a further two have deferred to a future time. There are still the numbers for the course to proceed so Robin is offering three more places for the cost price of $500 which includes all meals for 6 1/2 days. Accommodation in the EcoPark at Crystal Waters for the camping option is only $10 per night so this makes it a really affordable opportunity. A bed in the bunkhouse is $22.50.
