Embodied Education:
Creating Safe Space for Learning, Facilitating and Sharing
Monday 27th May 2023
Join Kay and Dan Aldred to learn about their book Embodied Education: Creating Safe Space for Learning, Facilitating and Sharing, and vision for a new educational paradigm based on wellbeing, co-regulation, and creativity, which advocates for body-first, relational and embodiment approaches in organisations and communities.
Explore practical strategies for the creation of organisations and spaces which are trauma-informed and neurodivergent, sensory, and nervous system friendly, and which celebrate and encourage individuality, divergence, and innovation, alongside exploration, discovery, and imagination.
Suitable anyone connected to schools, universities, youth work, teaching, home-schooling, unschooling, health and social care services, charities, social justice, parenting, holistic health and therapeutic settings, religious, and spiritual spaces.
The workshop will cover the following topics:
- The nervous system, trauma, and stress
- Body first approaches
- Neurodiversity
- The concept of safety
- The design and infrastructure of buildings
- Embodied models of safe, accountable, and responsible space holding, teaching and leadership
- Methods of facilitation and pedagogy
There will be some copies of Kay and Dan's Embodied Education available to purchase on the day.
