9-day residential retreat (IIT) in Brazil: June/July 2025

We welcome you to join us for this residential retreat in São Roque, State of São Paulo, Brazil from 23-Jun-2025 to 02-Jul-2025. We envision that this event will help you bring authenticity and harmony into all areas of your life. We hope that you will discover skills that will help you improve the quality of your relationships, deepen your inner peace, and increase your contribution to the world!

This 9-day immersion experience into Nonviolent Communication (NVC) will offer learning sessions, home groups, coaching and feedback from skilled trainers, and a community environment where you can learn and practice the key skills of NVC.

Our team of Certified Trainers will share both the core curriculum of NVC as developed by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, as well as their own unique applications. We expect a group of approximately 80-90 participants (in addition to the trainers and organizers) from different countries, cultural backgrounds, professions and walks of life.

People around the world are using Nonviolent Communication skills to transform conflict, create resilience in their relationships, and build a world where everyone’s needs matter and are met collaboratively.

We will create a dynamic learning laboratory that will show you how to create a more compassionate and peaceful culture in your life at home, at work, and in your community by learning how to:

  1. Speak from the heart
  2. Practice deep, non-judgmental listening
  3. Build self-empowerment from the inside out

The cost of this training includes two components: 1) Tuition; and 2) Room and Board.
