Women Generating 2012 Skills Camp ABOUT SKILLS CAMPS Skills Camps are designed for women to own their confidence, authority, and authentic purpose in order to skillfully take action to increase influence and fulfillment. The camps support direct action, ease with challenging conversations, healthy boundaries, self-care, and increased responsiveness while reducing reactivity. The camps address the critical concerns women have limited by social norms and what history has dictated. This is an opportunity to shift the ways oppression gets internalized and limits full expression. Through collective support and collective confidence, personal and collective barriers dissolve and full presence and power emerge.

2012 Skills Camp Skills Camp: Jo Training Parts 1 & 2 - June 30, 2012 Click Here to Register
NOTE: Day is divided into 2 parts: Part 1 - Intro to Jo (six moves) and Part 2 - 31 Jo Kata This camp incorporates a series of moves with a JO staff, which is associated with Martial Arts. The JO is used as a metaphor as an extension of who we are and how we move into action in the world. Each move represents a way in which we express ourselves. Through the practice, we learn how we are not in full power, action, and expression and then have a deliberate means to build capacity and competency in an embodied way that allows us to be successful leading our lives with power, purpose and self-care. The first session of the camp focuses on six moves. The first part of the session we will focus on your current commitment. We then will use the 6 moves to help you become focused, purposeful, direct, open, resilient, while remembering your self in the process. You will have the opportunity to increase self-awareness while also observing a partner and offering life-giving suggestions to support a woman increasing her confidence and capacity. In this way, we continue to build a community of women supporting and promoting other women. We then do the practice as a team to build the capacity to coordinate with other people.

This camp helps you build the skill of setting healthy boundaries while maintaining dignity for all concerned. Historically, women tend to consider their needs last.

“To me, collective power is innately connected to ‘power with’. I am learning to find the leverage to meet my needs and accomplish my goals in partnership with others, not by dominating or beating them. Cultivating the discipline to do this doesn’t mean, as many women fear, subordination or loss of self, but precisely the opposite: the fulfillment of self beyond our wildest dreams.” - Women Generating Change Agent

“I’ve learned more about myself through collective power than I could learn by myself. And because I feel the support of collective power, I can feel myself more deeply and be more alive in the world. It allows me to be more authentic and truer to who I am at my core – and that allows me to be of greater service in the world and to be a brighter light to others. When I allow more aliveness in my body because of the support of the collective, I ‘m calmer, more centered, more loving and more deeply present to connect with myself and others.” - Women Generating Change Agent

Women Generating ALUMNI ONLY: Mare Practices ABOUT THE MARE PRATICE One ponders the last seconds of Sweet Adeline's (The Mare) decision that day, when she corralled a group of 13 visitors against the founding wall at Serendipity Stable, putting her own life at risk to protect the people against the oncoming F3 tornado. Thirteen visitors were participating in a horse stable visitation. Because of Sweet Adeline’s courage and leadership, the visitors had only minor injuries, but not one perished during the storm's plight. The Mare Practice is an opportunity for you to corral the collective around your stand and is an exercise to lead so fiercely, everyone follows. You have the chance to physically lead others around your vision and to experience the power of YOU.
