Two-day introduction to Coyote Mentoring.
This nature-based educational approach developed by Jon Young and the Wilderness Awareness School is rooted in the sense of wonder that we all hold as children. The introduction will provide you with tools to open people up to a heightened nature awareness, a deeper connection to self and community, and the importance of culture.

Do you sometimes struggle with keeping people's attention when holding a workshop? Do you feel like the people you work with loose interest after a while?
Coyote mentoring offers a radically different way to educate than the classical information-based approach. Through sparking people's curiosity throughout the process you re-awaken their innate drive to learn and expand their awareness.
Without realizing they are taken on a learning experience which is both fun and deep for them and for you!
