Level-1 Training
Order Cards early!
Discover the history of Listening Game Cards and how they bring together the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC), neuroscience, and active listening skills through the application of the four core methods of learning: visual, auditory, reading and writing, and kinesthetic.
Test the work! In this 2-hour session, you will have an opportunity to observe a demo, ask questions, take the role of a listener and possibly as a storyteller, and share observations and learning. Depending on group size, up to 24 maximum, not everyone will have an opportunity to be a storyteller during this introductory session.
Providing three options to acquire Level-1 Training for Listening Game Cards, including free downloadable instructions and Feelings and Needs lists, ensures accessibility to all, regardless of ability to pay.

To maximize your experience, we recommend that you order the cards in advance of your session. However, the cards are optional, and you can still experience the lessons through the FREE downloadable Feelings and Needs lists.
Feelings and Needs lists will help you experience the lessons in a modified yet still very powerful way.
