Upcoming Ecofluency events
Please click on event title for more details.
Ecofluency offers a sliding scale payment model for online events and consultations. However, events invited by or co-created with others, and/or in-person events requiring venue hire and other costs, are run with the usual economic model, although concession rates are often available for most in-person events.
Spaces are usually limited, for all teaching events, to ensure more tailored individual attention.

Teaching background, and private events
I have gained a wide range of experience in teaching, facilitation and leadership skills over the past 14 years. In the past 10 years, I have helped organise and facilitated dozens of events and workshops, in various forms in person and online, with nearly 1000 participants in total. Feedback from all of these has been overwhelmingly positive.
Immersive in-person events are usually offered for about 12-15 participants, and can be one-day, whole weekends or week-long. These are tailored to the audience, and can include Nature Communication, and/or Family and Nature Constellations.
