Hi all, I am deeply honored to announce the grand opening of a new permaculture and holistic living school in downtown Berkeley on November 1st.
The Berkeley Sustainability Institute will be the bio-regional campus of Common Circle Education (commoncircle.com), a permaculture and sustainable living school, offering a range of ecological design and holistic living workshops as well as yoga and free meditation classes. Quite simply, our job is to grow healthy communities. The Institute will offer a weekly schedule of social and ecological permaculture forums, sustainability talks, compassionate communication (NVC) workshops, permaculture design courses, all in addition to yoga and meditation. We will be located at the prestigious 2130 Center Street building in downtown Berkeley. In November, we will be launching our new program The Art of Creating Community, based upon the non-violent communication work by Marshall Rosenberg and the Heart of Now program originating at Lost Valley Educational Center in Oregon. In early next year we will begin our weekend permaculture design courses as well as two-week intensive (sub)urban permaculture design courses. In addition, we will shortly begin offering Transition Town trainings, guiding our communities towards an oil-independent future. For five years, Common Circle Education has been introducing the concepts of permaculture and sustainable living to mainstream audiences. Our programs are rooted in natural principles and holistically integrated with mindfulness, meditation, and hands-on service work as core components. We're currently looking for guest instructors and facilitators; and very much welcome any forms of collaboration from similarly-focused beings and groups - if you are interested in working with us, please drop me an e-mail. More announcements will soon follow regarding our upcoming programs. Thank you for the work you are doing to heal the planet. -Vladislav -- Vladislav Davidzon, CEO Common Circle Education www.commoncircle.com _______________________________________________ Sdpg mailing list [email protected] https://www.arashi.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/sdpg
