Leadership Training Program

The Dutch Institute Cordium Core Evolutionary (NICE), together with the Core Energetics Radical Aliveness Institute Los Angeles, participates in a Leadership Training Program offered by Beyond Words. Anna Timmermans, director and senior teacher of NICE, is one of the teachers in the course.

Beyond Words (BW) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote the empowerment of women, the healing of emotional wounds and traumas and the undermining of prejudice as a path towards building peace in Israel.

Background

For years much of the behavior of those who live in the Middle East has been led by painful emotions that have no safe place to be expressed and released. Palestinian Arabs and Jews who live in Israel and in the Palestinian Occupied Territories rarely meet to listen to one another and talk about their feelings. Even rarer are opportunities where they can gather together and work through and transform these painful emotions.

leadership

This course is all about this transformative work and the goal is that the Jewish and Arab Palestinian participants themselves become a powerful healing presence when faced with strong emotions in their every day lives. We believe that having more and more people who can safely handle painful emotions and transform them is a major key to our ability to work for and achieve peace in this part of the world.

About the course

This 300 academic hour course offers a theoretical and experiential exploration into alternative methods that promote peace, positive leadership, dialogue and joint living. Participants will have an opportunity to study both Core Energetics Radical Aliveness with Ann Bradney Director of the California Institute and Anna Timmermans, Director of the Dutch Institute and the Beyond Words multi disciplinary approach with Nitsan Gordon, director of Beyond Words and lead facilitator Sylvia Margia and others from the staff of the Beyond Words Organization.

Participants will meet for two six day sessions and five weekends throughout each year. During the second year they will be required to practice the approach in small groups and one on one settings bringing material for supervision to the group meetings. Those who graduate will receive a Radical Aliveness Core Energetics Practitioner certificate from the school of Radical Aliveness and a facilitator certificate from the Beyond Words Organization.
