The Aikido Interaction Model - Seminar

| Description 

You immerse yourself in an interaction model and learn to communicate according to a model that provides support when interaction contains discomfort, barriers, differences, challenges, or escalation. This interaction model has been researched and inspired by a Japanese martial art: aikido.

You will arrive on Tuesday evening and begin after dinner. Wednesday and Thursday are devoted to guided immersion. Departure is on Thursday after 4 p.m., with the option to stay for an additional decompression night and return more gently to daily life.

The seminar circle remains small, usually 6 to 8 participants, so there is space for real interaction, each voice finds its place, each challenge is explored in depth, and each process unfolds with care.

The programme is guided by Greet, a Communication Doctor, who works at the intersection of communication, embodied practice, and strategic thinking.

| Target Group 

For everyone.

| Approach 

The training introduces the fundamentals of the aikido interaction model, both theoretically and psychophysically using simple aikido movements. We then apply the model to external case studies and real-life situations brought in by the participants. There is much interaction and variation. We will not be watching a slideshow the whole time: we will be switching between sitting, walking, talking, writing, laughing, learning, and remembering. 

| Contents 

You will learn communication principles and skills to achieve noble outcomes clearly, constructively, and courageously. 

• Knowledge and understanding of the aikido interaction model. 
• Self-regulation for physical, emotional, and mental calm.
• Co-regulation for connection through softness, purpose, and empathy.
• Noble motivation for constructive and appropriate outcomes.

Applications can include verbal, non-verbal, written, formal, and informal communication. Those who bring in their own questions and situations explore and refine them throughout the programme, and leave with workable insights that take shape in real-life contexts.

In short, you will learn to communicate with an interaction model incorporating self-regulation, co-regulation, and noble outcomes. Each participant will go home with a personal action plan.
